Nathan DeAsha out of the Olympia - as he is not allowed into the US and was denied a VISA. Will the Mr. Olympia teaem get him that letter to convince the US that he is coming for the purpose of competing? Hopefully, they can help.
I doubt it.
Just searching online I found an article that states: "
NATHAN DEASHA ARRESTED IN U.K. ON CRIMINAL DRUG CHARGES"
https://muscleinsider.com/news/nathan-deasha-arrested-uk-criminal-drug-chargesGranted, this likely happened a number of years back, but still relevant.
Some key points from the article:
- Arrested and charged with possession and intent to distribute illicit drugs in England
- Charged with alleged possession of MDMA, cocaine, and anabolic steroids with intent to supply
- Charged with possessing criminal property (cash) and concealing or disguising criminal property
As if the above wasn't enough, that same article mentions the following:
It’s not the first time DeAsha has had a brush with the law. When riots broke out in Liverpool in August, 2011, it was reported that police and media labelled the rioters as “black kids with single mothers,” which DeAsha strongly objected to.
Then 25, DeAsha apparently took to Facebook and made the ill-advised decision to tell his scant 855 followers to loot the shopping mall Liverpool One while police tried to contain the worst street violence seen in nearly a generation, according to the UK website LiverpoolEcho.co.uk.
He reportedly made comments encouraging people to “terrorise police” and “hit town an get something out of it.” Police were provided a print out of DeAsha’s statements, then arrested and charged him.He supposedly got handed an 18-month sentence by the judge.
My prophesy: He won't be coming into the US.
That said, he can always travel to Mexico and enter the US through that border. Seems like everyone gets in through there.
