An attorney for one of the men indicted in a massive federal drug bust says the charges should be dropped because prosecutors connected him to other crimes - including the murder of Denver Broncos player Darrent Williams - when they presented the case to the grand jury.

Willie Clark, 24, was indicted last year on one count of conspiracy to distribute drugs.

Prosecutors claim Clark is a gang member who worked with a violent group, the Elite Eight. The group is connected to up to 11 unsolved murders, including Williams' New Years Day 2007 killing, authorities have said.

In court documents, Clark's attorney said Denver police consider Clark one of three suspects in the Williams murder. Clark denies he was involved and has pleaded not guilty to the drug charge.

Clark's attorney, Alaurice Tafoya-Modi, argued in a court filing Wednesday that prosecutors prejudiced the grand jury against Clark when they presented evidence unrelated to the drug charge.

Robert Fuller, a detective with the Denver District Attorney's Office, testified before the grand jury that after Clark was arrested, the gang's alleged leader, Brian Hicks, discussed "a crime of violence" with his girlfriend via telephone from the Denver jail, where he was being held.

"Hicks was contemplating that if he wasn't in jail, that a lot of this stuff wouldn't have happened . . . and that he wouldn't allow the associates or the members of his organization, the Elite 8, to go to the bars and get in trouble," Fuller told the grand jury, according to a transcript made public Wednesday.

During the same conversation, Hicks asked his girlfriend to send someone to visit Clark so he would feel loved and not start talking to police, Tafoya-Modi said.

Jeff Dorschner, spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's Office, declined to comment, saying the office will respond in its own court filing.

I pray this leads to some form of justice for Darrent's mother.

Obviously you guys are still passionate about this (DW Murder)but is it necessary to be so freakin rude to someone who thought they were posting something of great importance to them and the majority of Bronco fans as a whole?

Obviously she/he whatever thought it was the real deal and was excited. PM's work magic.

Im not a model citizen for sure, but I hate when newer people are treated poorly. Later down the road if he/she proves to be a douche bag with a proven track record of crap(aka Bronconut) then Im all for the mean stuff.

There should be a 100 post buffer then a jump in, like Blood in Blood out or something.

IMO opinion I handled my post wrong by quoting members posts in here. My main point is we can be rough on new folks, so let them stick around for awhile before we bust there balls.

As for the MS thread, nothing I can say will make that right. I dont feel good about what I posted, but I don't feel to bad.
