Former Last Chance U star Isaiah Wright and his brother Camion Patrick were both arrested and charged in the stabbing of Caleb Thomas Radford in July.

The reality tv star has quickly fallen out of the limelight and now finds himself in serious trouble. Wright, one of the stars of the Netflix hit show Last Chance U, transferred to West Georgia rather than a major program like many of his former teammates.

Wright never played a snap for the Wolves. After spring practices he unenrolled from the university and fell off the college football landscape before reemerging with this arrest. There is limited information available at this time. What we do know so far is that Keshawn Lonnell Hopewell and Itiq Tivone Green have also been charged for the stabbing.

Both brothers were arrested separately. Patrick, who currently plays receiver for Indiana, was taken into custody by campus police. He will be held until he can be extradited from Indiana. The university has suspended Patrick with no given reinstatement date.

Patrick has played sparingly for the Hoosiers last season. He has six receptions for 154 yards and a touchdown as well as four carries for 10 yards and a score. As of the Hoosiers Week 2 game, he had yet to register any touches in the 2017 season after being granted a medical hardship in July. That effectively ended his college football career.

This is bigger than football. Investigations take time, and this one will undoubtedly be put though the slow-grinding gears of the legal system. Regardless of the outcome, it’s a sad day for everyone involved. More details will be released as the investigation progresses.
