The amount of money that drug agents recovered while searching the residence of Alabama basketball guard Aden Holloway has been revealed.
According to court documents obtained by The Tuscaloosa News, agents with the West Alabama Narcotics task force found $400 in the pocket of a jacket owned by Holloway in his closet.
Agents also found 2.1 pounds of marijuana, as well as paraphernalia.
Tuscaloosa district attorney Hays Webb filed a complaint of forfeiture on Friday, March 20 in the Tuscaloosa Circuit Court, seeking for all fruits of Holloway’s crimes, including any financial gain, to be seized by the state.
«The money is being seized due to seeing drug transactions on Holloway’s phone, with people texting that they were going to get up with him after the season,» the complaint read.
Holloway was arrested on Monday, March 16 for first-degree possession of marijuana, as well as failure to affix a tax stamp. Both are Class C felonies in the state of Alabama. He was released within an hour of his arrest after settling a bond set at $5,000.
As he awaits review from the University Office of Student Conduct, as well as a court date, Holloway has been suspended from team activities.
