Witness Accuses Mike Tyson In Plot Against Brooklyn Gang
Dwayne "Thor" Meyers, an alleged member of Cash Money Brothers, testified that Mike Tyson was one of the people to contribute to a $50,000 contract to kill at least two members of the notorious Brooklyn street gang. During a Thursday trial against alleged CMB member Abubakr Raheem, Meyers claimed Tyson and Muhammad Nur helped orchestrate the hit on CMB leaders Damion "World" Hardy and Edward "Taz" Cooke.
"We got word Mike Tyson and [another man] had both contributed $50,000 apiece for the murders of Cash Money Brothers," Meyers testified. Although the contract was never carried out, Meyers says it was solicited in retaliation for the June 2000 killing of Tyson's bodyguard and close friend Darryl "Homicide" Baum.

Mike Tyson Jailed... For One Whole Day
Shamed former boxer Mike Tyson has been sentenced to 24 hours in prison after police pulled him over in December 2006 and found bags of cocaine in his car and pockets.
