Chef Arrested For Running Multi-Million Drug Ring Out of His Restaurant

Fred Wills Jr., chef and owner of Big Daddy's: A Touch of the South restaurant in Virginia Beach, is accused of cooking up something a little spicier than gumbo. How about a multimillion-dollar cocaine and marijuana ring.



A 26-page federal indictment details Wills' alleged drug dealing, dating back to 2002, and states that, along with his wife, Willis sold more than 240 pounds of cocaine and laundered money through his restaurants.

Wills said in a television interview that he had been homeless in the past and had served more than a decade in prison for armed robbery. It's too bad that his obvious skills in cooking and business building may end up going to waste if he is convicted.

But I'm sure the warden will find a spot for Willis in the kitchen.
