Former Olympic Snowboarder Accused of Leading Major Drug Trafficking Operation and Murder
Ryan Wedding, a former Canadian Olympic snowboarder, has been charged with running an extensive drug trafficking ring involving cocaine distribution and orchestrating multiple murders. According to the FBI, Wedding is accused of leading a transnational drug cartel that supplied cocaine to Canada and was involved in a series of violent crimes, including four homicides. The investigation has led to a raid on a multimillion-dollar mansion in Aventura, Florida, as authorities seek to dismantle the operation. Wedding, currently a fugitive, is one of 16 individuals indicted in connection with this major cocaine-smuggling case, with the allegations spanning across international borders.
