DANG! Messi Senior Denies Laundering...DRUG Money.






Wow....this is interesting. Jorge Messi, that papa of Lionel, has denied being under investigation for money laundering. This is all due to reports coming to light about Colombian drug lords using charity matches like the very popular "Messi and Friends" Friendlies to fund their drug empire. So basically, the Messi charity matches are being used as a front so that the drug individuals of Colombia (who have sexy women) can get some of that cheddar needed to be up and running in the very important business of the drug trade. This sounds like a damn movie....




A statement was released by Leo Messi Management that Jorge is not at all involved in this investigation and has nothing at all to do with it. They say he was only involved in setting up which charity the money would go to rather than being the promoter and really getting his paws into the whole organizing of the event.
 Well, HH will like to chime in and say that things smell fishy. I am not saying Jorge is a druglord or that he is working for some drug kingpin like Diego Simeone...but his name being called out, and being involved with those that run these charity matches....err....it just sounds a bit far too odd for me. Remember, him AND Leo were under investigation for tax fraud....so....
  It's one of those things where some months down the line, you actually find out that in some weird indirect way, Jorge was actually secretly involved in this and just wanted a big new house or that thousand dollar watch. So...he worked for the drug boys. Who knows, maybe they had a gun to his head and forced him to be involved in this scheme?

I am just amused that the Colombian drug traders are still alive and well, and it does make sense they would hide under the banner of a charity football match. Right now, football is the biggest sport in the world and Messi is its biggest star. It's the IDEAL place to gather enough funding for whatever illegal or legal(depends on if you believe in drugs) scheme you have going on. Let's hope Jorge is not involved...but that photo does make him look shady.
