According to the report, Franco was involved in a fight in the parking lot of an apartment in San Juan de la Maguana. In the process, Franco was arrested after taking out a gun.
A woman and a man, who have not been identified along with Franco, are currently being investigated in police custody.
However, the possession of firearms is legal in the Dominican Republic. It is only for licensed and registered firearms. However, it is not known whether Franco has such qualifications.
After joining Tampa Bay on an international amateur contract in 2017, Franco ranked first in various prospect evaluation institutions in 2020 and 2021.
Notably, he posted a batting average of 0.313 and an OPS of 0.955 at Triple-A in 2021, right before joining the Major League. He also posted an OPS of 0.810 in 70 games since his Major League call-up.
As a result, Tampa Bay immediately signed an 11-year – $182 million contract with Tampa Bay to Franco that winter. He signed a large contract to a player who played only 70 games.
However, Franco suffered from “Sophore Jinx” the following year, as he was not able to participate in many matches due to injury and other reasons. He also had an accident last year that marked the end of his career.
Franco reportedly had an inappropriate relationship with a 14-year-old girl last year. He also mentioned that it was found that the 14-year-old girl’s mother demanded money from Franco.
Franco was also found to have laundered money to raise the money. The incident has put an end to Franco’s baseball career.
Franco faces up to 20 years in prison for this incident. If he receives the maximum sentence, he will not be released from prison until his mid-40s.
