What ever happened to Brian Bowles???

[StewDogg11]

I know he got arrested on drug and weapons charges in 2015 but there is literally no news/articles on him since the arrest which is odd considering he was the former WEC Bantamweight champion and fought numerous times in the UFC. Half joking/half serious did he get relocated to witness protection or something?

Marky Mark broke bad.

Meth.

But you think there would be news reports of his sentencing, release from prison, etc. There’s none of that.

When you're charged with...

"possession of methamphetamine
possession of a schedule IV drug
possession of schedule IV drug with intent to sell
possession of marijuana
possession of marijuana with intent to sell
possession of tools for the commission of a crime
and possession of firearm during the commission of a crime"

You're probably going away for a while.

Can't make this shit up:

Bowles’ residence on Stoner Road

But like I said there’s no reports if he ever even pled or was found guilty or sentenced if he was. It’s also entirely plausible to get out in less than 5 years with those charges.

Poor guy, addiction is a treacherous path that requires treatment to find the underlying causes behind substance abuse (punitive measures rarely suffice). As someone who struggled with these issues and found a better way of life through sobriety and AA I hope he can recover.

Who knows if he was even an addict. Those are more dealer type charges.

I bet he’s hanging out with TJ Grant somewhere.

That’s true. I made an assumption that he was using as well.

 

[NFLDer]

I could swear I seen an article afterwards sayings he got sentence between 13 to 18 years.

 

[kimocomplex]

Dominick Cruz ended him

just cause he sold it doesn't mean he was an addict.

 

[StewDogg11]

Dominick Cruz ended him

Not really as he won his next two fights afterwards plus I really don’t feel like Cruz is capable of “ending” anyone.

maybe he still in jail

 

[StewDogg11]

Nope, did some sleuthing and he isn’t in the Georgia Department of Corrections nor is he a federal inmate.

 

[letgodiego]

entirely possible he got drug court, in which case you wouldnt hear about his sentence cause it would be sealed

That’s not true at all. And even if your record does get sealed/expunged it’s only after you successfully complete Probation. And even then it’s not like sealing/expunging your record is going to wipe it away from every corner of the Internet.
