Chris Brown and Lil Wayne at center of federal drug deal investigation

Chris Brown and Lil Wayne have been named at the center of a drug investigation by US federal agents.

According to the Miami Herald, Miami music producer and alleged drug dealer Harrison Garcia aka (Cuban Harry), is currently involved in a criminal drug trial where he admitted to a cop that he sold “a lot of narcotics” to the rapper lil Wayne. 

The authorities believe that Garcia’s high-flying lifestyle, which he promoted on Social media, was actually supplemented by a drug operation. Under the username “Muhammad_A_Lean,” Garcia took to Instagram to show off expensive cars and jewels.

Giving evidence to the investigation, U.S Homeland Security Agent, Kevin Selent, told the court that Garcia had sent a screenshot of a bank transfer from “Christopher Brown” for $15,000 to one of his associates with the caption: “Look who put money my account (sic)”.

The female associate responded: “What that for LOL”. Garcia replied with several smiley face emojis: “Drugs … lean and sh*t.”

‘Lean’, also known as “sizzurp” and “purple drank,” is a drug concoction that mixes prescription codeine cough syrup with Sprite and Jolly Ranchers candy. 

The text messages presented by Selent, show Garcia claiming to have sold cannabis to Lil Wayne, sending an associate: “I’ll shoot u some trees (weed)… It’s for Wayne.” 

Selent declined to speak outside the court, telling reporters: “It’s still an open investigation. I can’t talk about it.”
