Ex-White Sox pitcher busted with 20 kilos of cocaine worth $500K

Feb 12, 2018, 2:35 PM

Ex-White Sox pitcher Esteban Loaiza was arrested last week on felony drug charges according to multiple reports.

The 46-year old had at least 20 kilos of heroin with the intent to sell and his bond was set at $200,000.

TMZ reported the following:

Loaiza was initially stopped by police during a traffic stop for a minor traffic violation — but a search of his car led to the discovery of a “sophisticated aftermarket compartment used to conceal contraband.”

Cops then got a warrant to search a home that Loaiza had been renting since early February — located “steps away from an area preschool” — and found roughly 20 kilograms of suspected cocaine.

Estimated street value — $500,000.

Loaiza is scheduled to go to court on Wednesday on the drug charges.

This is a new one: Esteban Loaiza, drug kingpin.
