Former NBA player risks rearrest for shouting down witness
Brooklyn prosecutors threatened to rearrest former NBA phenom Sebastian Telfair Tuesday – in the middle of his trial – for allegedly yelling at a witness who had just testified.
Telfair is standing trial for his June 2017 arrest in Brooklyn, when cops found three loaded guns, a sub-machine gun and a bulletproof vest in his car. Witness Owen Fletcher testified Tuesday morning that he sent Telfair’s cars to New York from Orlando, where the guns are believed to have been purchased.
After his testimony, Telfair accosted Fletcher outside the courtroom.
