Chris Bosh's Mom Charged For Exploitation Of A Disabled Person

Freida Bosh, the mother of NBA free agent Chris Bosh, has been arrested due to her involvement in a scheme related to the alleged exploitation of a disabled person, a third-degree felony. 

The DeSoto Police Department in Texas said officers arrested Bosh and Johnathan Brown – who lived in the DeSoto residence with Bosh – on Tuesday. 

DeSoto police said Bosh and Brown allowed the disabled victim to stay at the residence for the "purpose of monetary profit, personal benefit and gain."

"The affidavit states that Bosh ordered the victim to relinquish a large portion of his monthly disability check to her to pay rent for the victim and Brown," police said in a statement. "The affidavit further advises the victim, who was intimidated by Brown, was then forced to participate in Brown's drug distribution activities."

DeSoto police said Bosh allowed the situation of exploitation and illegal distribution of drugs to continue as a means to acquire free narcotics and marijuana from Brown.

Bosh posted bond and was released. Brown remained in custody as of Tuesday.

Chris Bosh is listed as the owner of the home. Bosh played 13 seasons in the NBA. 

Plagued by injuries and health issues in recent years, he was cut by the Miami Heat on July 4.
