A case of brotherly love in North Carolina turned deadly after a young man agreed to eat cocaine hidden in his older sibling's buttocks, then died of an overdose.
Deangelo Mitchell is seen in a police car video guilting his brother into injesting the illegal substance because, he is heard saying, "I can't get no more strikes."
The 23-year-old and his younger brother, Wayne, were pulled over by police for a busted tail light on Nov. 30 in North Charleston, according to ABC News 4.
The pair was handcuffed and put into the back of a squad car, police said. The video then shows Deangelo panic over his arrest, and beg his brother to help.
"Eat that sh*t, so I can get out," he says in the video. "One of us gotta do it, you the only one that don't have any strikes... You my little brother... I'm gonna get life."
The 20-year-old eventually gives in. Deangelo can be seen removing something from his backside, then Wayne leans down and eats the drugs, police said.
"I love you, bro," Wayne says in the video after consuming the narcotic.
A short time later, he was dead. Deangelo said his brother ate about an ounce of cocaine, authorities said.
"An older brother is supposed to love his younger brother and take care of him, but... that's not what happened," police chief Jon Zumalt told ABC News 4.
Deangelo was later charged with drug trafficking and posted a $50,000 bond, police said.
Cops then reviewed the video from the police car, and when a toxicology report confirmed Wayne died of acute cocaine toxicity. Deangelo was rearrested and charged with involuntary manslaughter.

I wonder why he ate it? The cops hadn't found it already. Seems shady that they were handcuffed and taken into custody for a busted tail light. Regardless, the police would need a warrant for any kind of cavity search. I doubt they could get a warrant because of a busted tail light.

isn't it plausible that he could get pulled over for a busted tail light, have his license run through the computer, a warrant pops up and then they're arrested?

Yes it is!
I still doubt they'd search his ass. Just hold it until he has a chance to go to the bathroom in jail and it out and flush it, imo.
