Mike Danton

Probably one of hockey’s most disturbing stories is that of player Mike Danton and his agent David Frost. Danton got arrested for attempting to hire a hitman to kill Frost, and served 63 months in prison. However, it came to light that Frost had been very controlling over Danton and also had a history of sexual exploitation with young teens.

A phone call between Danton and Frost was released where Frost even forced Danton to say I love you. Even to this day, Frost claims he wasn’t the target, but rather, it was Danton’s estranged father, Steve Jefferson who abused Danton as a child.

This tragic tale has been making headlines again recently with Rae Carruth’s upcoming release from prison set for October 2018. This former Carolina Panthers player played just three seasons before being sentenced to 17 years in prison for conspiracy to commit first-degree murder.

Carruth had his pregnant girlfriend Cherica Adams killed in a drive-by, but their unborn child was saved in an emergency C-section, one month premature. Unfortunately, the baby, Chancellor Lee Adams, was born with severe brain damage and cerebral palsy because of the traumatic birth. Now, Carruth is fighting for custody of his son as he approaches his release.
