Now, every few months, the arrests of Delonte West they can’t even be counted anymore. The former NBA player, now 41 years old, continues to live in precarious conditions, often on the streets, and to commit minor crimes that cost him prison, at least for a few days. In this case West he was arrested on November 2nd by the <a href="http://www.world-today-news.com/28-year-old-virginia-science-teacher-charged-with-possession-of-child-pornography/" title="28-Year-Old Virginia Science Teacher Charged With Possession Of Child Pornography”>Fairfax County Police Department, in Virginiafor going to an area where he had been banned from entering due to previous problems with the law.
West was arrested and released the next day on $1,000 bail. The trial is scheduled for January.
The former Boston Celtics, Cleveland Cavaliers and Dallas Mavericks player had attracted a lot of attention a few years ago for the dilapidated conditions in which he lived, on the streets, despite having earned over 16 million dollars in his NBA career. Mark Cuban, billionaire owner of the Mavericks, had tried to help him by taking charge of him directly and paying for a rehabilitation clinic. Although for a few months this path seemed to produce the desired results, in the end Delonte left the community and returned to everyday life on the streets. West also has serious mental health problems: he suffers from bipolarismdiagnosed when he was still playing in the NBA. The player had already been arrested during his career, but his problems with the law have increased in direct proportion to the uncomfortable conditions in which he now lives.
Last July, the last arrest known before the one on November 2, was arrested for violating probation and resisting officers. In that case it had caused even more concern as West had lost consciousness and was rushed to hospital.
