Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold has turned himself in to Florida police on eight felony counts related to an alleged revenge crime. The 23-year-old is accused of four counts of robbery with a deadly weapon, and four counts of kidnapping — which the Attorney General’s office said carry “a potential sentence of life in prison,” if he is found guilty.

Alleged Crime Details

Prosecutors allege that an Airbnb rented by Arnold in Largo, Florida was burgled sometime between Jan. 25 and Feb. 1, with the perpetrators taking an estimated $250,000 in cash and goods belonging to the Lions’ CB. The exact date of the initial crime is unknown, as police say Arnold did not file a police report until Feb. 3, stating that he didn’t realize anything was missing from the residence until that time.

It’s alleged that on Feb 4, one day after speaking to police, three men were lured to an apartment by two women known to Arnold. When inside, the men were attacked by numerous individuals, beaten, held at gunpoint, and interrogated about the robbery.

Co-Conspirators Charged

Six people familiar with Arnold were charged on weapons and kidnapping charges: Boakai Hilton, Arianna Del Valle, Jasmine Randazzo, Lyndell Hudson, Christion Williams, and Freddie Hughes. In an interview with police Arnold referred to Hilton as “his childhood best friend.”

The two women who lured the victims to their apartment, Del Valle and Randazzo, have accepted plea deals from prosecutors, while the other alleged co-conspirators are being held without bond.

Arnold’s agents, EAG Sports Management, released a statement that denied any involvement from Arnold, adding that those involved were trying to name him in an effort to lessen their sentences.
