Pittsburg Steeler Cut For Trafficking


AOL

When the Steelers released Richard Seigler on Thursday, it seemed to be just one of those procedural moves--a case where a player was caught in a number's game. And Seigler was enough of a scrub that you would expect people to barely notice he's gone.Or that's what the Steelers hoped would happen. A Las Vegas television station is reporting that the Steelers actually cut Seigler once they found out that the Las Vegas Police Department had a warrant out to arrest him on multiple felony charges stemming from his work as a pimp. The TV station reported that he was arrested on Thursday in Pittsburgh, just hours after being released.The Las Vegas police charged Seigler with pandering and living off the earnings of a prostitute. Las Vegas channel 8 is reporting Seigler could face up to 10 years in jail. A vice officer with the police department told the TV station that they were tipped off to Seigler during an investigation into underage prostitutes
