RALEIGH

A former UNC football player was arrested after a parcel containing marijuana and edible THC was discovered to a Raleigh home, according to a release from the Wake County Sheriff’s Office.

Christopher Jamel Hawkins, 37, was charged with felony possession with intent to sell and deliver marijuana, felony conspiracy to deliver marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia, the release says.

The street value of the drugs confiscated is $160,000, the release said.

Hawkins was a cornerback at UNC from 2001 until he was dismissed from the team in 2004 for violating team rules.

In 2015, Hawkins was accused of violating North Carolina’s Uniform Athlete Agents Act. He was charged with felony athlete-agent inducement for providing former UNC defensive lineman Robert Quinn with $13,700 and helping him sell equipment for $1,700 in 2010. He was also charged with approaching UNC football players without being a registered agent, The News & Observer and the Associated Press previous reported.

Quinn said Hawkins paid him to choose agent Peter Shaffer and financial adviser Marty Blazer in an interview with state investigators, according to warrants, the N&O and AP reported.

Hawkins also has charges in Georgia for a probation violation for possession with intent to distribute cocaine, according to the Wake County Sheriff’s Office.

Hawkins was booked in the Wake County Detention Center, the release said.
