More than likely:
Caldwell was arrested for illegal gambling in 2014 and again for drugpossession and intent to distribute in May of 2014. He was sentenced to 27 months in prison and three years of probation. In December 2019, Caldwellwas accused of conspiracy to commit health care fraud and later plead guilty in January.
