Hi, Crime Junkies.

I'm Ashley Flowers and I'm Britt.

But today I am actually not your host.

It's been a little while, but we have gotten a lot of requests people want to hear you Britt.

Yeah.

And today I want to tell you about a man who went from the very edge of basketball super

stardom to the depths of rock bottom and back again.

A man who from the outside looked like he was finally on a solid path towards a happy

future when suddenly in the blink of an eye, everything fell apart.

This is a story of Rico Harris.

In October of 2014, Jennifer Song is right in the middle of making some big changes in

her life.

After a couple years of doing a long distance relationship thing, her fiancé Rico Harris

is finally moving from his hometown of Alhambra in Los Angeles County up to Seattle to live

with her.

Jennifer and Rico fell in love a couple of years ago back in 2012 during a vacation

in Southern California, but they've never lived in the same place.

So she's excited that they're finally going to start building their future together

in the same city.

Plus, on top of it all, Rico has an interview coming up for a job with a real estate company

and it's just the opportunity that he's been waiting for.

So Rico is a big guy.
