Nobody in Hollywood could write a better script than this.
Former NBA player Sebastian Telfair is curently embroiled in a weapons possession trial, but it would soon turn into an episode of “Basketball Wives.”
The former 13th overall pick in the 2004 NBA draft by the Portland Trail Blazers out of Abraham Lincoln High School had to watch as his mistress and estranged wife both took the stand against him while his current girlfriend was in attendance.
“Former basketball star Sebastian Telfair appeared in a New York court Monday on weapons and drug possession charges but the appearance proved rather awkward for those in attendance.
The 33-year-old ex-NBA player had the support of his girlfriend LaBelle Chacon at Brooklyn Supreme Court, stemming from a June 2017 incident where they were caught on a Sunday morning with a trunk full of contraband.
However his former love interests were also there to testify against him, including his estranged wife Samantha Telfair and his former mistress Caterina Scotto, 26.
cotto – who explained she had an on/off relationship with married Telfair – allowed the storage unit to auction off the memorabilia items left inside.
Scotto claimed she had seen Telfair with a gun multiple times reportedly told the court that her former love interest referred to guns as ‘biscuits’.
Her witness statement supports the prosecution who say they discovered a gas-operated submachine gun in Telfair’s possession.
As she departed court she told DailyMail.com: ‘Sebastian’s new girlfriend… I think he’s got many of them. She’s very ugly.’
Scotto then alleged: ‘She does sexual favors for free music videos.’
She said she would not be returning to court the following day.
Mrs Telfair also claimed in court that she had seen her spouse with the weapon that was found in his car, alongside three pistols, extended magazines, ammunition, and a bulletproof jacket, during a 2.50am routine traffic stop in the Bedstuy neighborhood of Brooklyn on June 11, 2017.
Two bags of marijuana were also discovered.
The woman said she helped coordinate the Florida to New York shipment of the blue F-150 pickup he was busted during the early hours.”
In the midst of mistress Caterina Scotto explaining how her relationship with the married hoopster ran hot and cold, she would suddenly stop her testimony to complain that a woman in the gallery was intimidating her.
“There’s this lady that keeps mouthing things to me,” Scotto said to Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice John Hecht. “And it’s making me really uncomfortable.”
