Lebron's Mom......how sad.
Working in the AKron area detox, one comes across many crackheads, and many claim they know Lebron's mom. Whether or not they do, who knows. What is sad is that the area she was picked up in is a serious crack dealing neighborhood. Perhaps, she was just visiting friends and had a drink too many.
I will say they had the police tape on the local news and it is quite sad listening as the cop is radioing the stop in hearing her scream in the background and it is even worse what will be coming out..... no family deserves to have their problems aired like this..... I hope she gets the help needed.

LeBron James' mom charged with drunken driving
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Associated Press
AKRON, Ohio -- The mother of Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James has been arrested for driving while intoxicated, disorderly conduct and other charges, police said.
Gloria James, 37, of suburban Green, was pulled over Friday night by two off-duty officers, said Akron Police Lt. Rick Edwards.
They were working security for the Akron Metropolitan Housing Authority in an unmarked car when they spotted James, who was alone in the 2004 Cadillac Escalade, he said.
The officers say James' car "almost hit" the housing authority car, Edwards said.
"She starts weaving in and out of traffic and passing people on the right," he said.
The officers said James smelled of alcohol and she appeared to be disoriented, Edwards said. She struggled with police as they attempted to put handcuffs on her. They put her in the back seat of the housing authority car and she kicked out a window, Edwards said.
James was taken to a police station, where she refused to take breath or sobriety tests, Edwards said.
She posted a $2,500 bond and was released.
She was charged with reckless operation, speeding for driving 50 mph in a 30-mph zone, operating a vehicle while intoxicated, disorderly conduct and damaging police equipment.
LeBron James, in Salt Lake City for a game against the Utah Jazz, declined to comment.
"I don't have all the info of what's going on," he said. "Once I find that out and once I sit down with my family, you know, I'll be able to comment on it a little bit better."
