Abby Wambach Won't Say If Booze Fueled 2014 Wreck
She's admitted to years of alcohol and Rx drug abuse -- but Abby Wambach is staying mum when it comes to the mysterious 2014 car wreck in which she flipped an SUV and fled the scene.
We broke the story ... Wambach flipped her Range Rover just after midnight on June 28th, 2014. The car landed on a residential property -- causing damage to the front lawn.
Moments after the crash, a passerby who came upon the flipped car called 911 and said the driver had already left the scene. Abby told cops she walked home because she didn't have her cell phone and wanted to call a tow truck.
Unclear why she didn't flag down a motorist or knock on the door of the home where she flipped.
Despite the severity of the crash and the curious fact she left the scene -- cops say they had no reason to believe Abby was impaired and did not administer a DUI test of any kind.
But now with Abby admitting her life was out of control with booze and prescription drugs -- we had to ask her straight up ... were you intoxicated on the night of the crash?
Abby has never spoken about the crash to media ... and it's clear, she doesn't want to start now.

Desiigner Arrest Driver Served Time for Illegal Steroids
It's becoming clearer than ever who owned the steroids found in the SUV in which Desiigner was riding ... because TMZ has found a criminal trail leading right to the driver.
Scott Siegel was driving the SUV when another driver called 911, claiming someone in the vehicle had pointed a gun at him. Although no gun was found, cops retrieved 302 pills from the SUV's console ... all of which turned out to be steroids.
Although Desiigner and everyone else in the SUV have been charged with illegal possession of drugs, we've learned steroids have been Siegel's thing for years. In fact, he was convicted in 2010 of distribution and possession of anabolic steroids and served 3 years in federal prison.
On top of that, Siegel appears in the movie "The Wrestler" in which he sells steroids to Mickey Rourke's character.
Although all the evidence points to Siegel as the person in possession of the steroids, the D.A. is not backing off the drug charge against Desiigner, who was in the backseat and claims he had no idea drugs were in the vehicle.
Law enforcement tells us it's common in New York for cops to arrest everyone in a vehicle in which drugs are found, and down the line the D.A. drops charges against the people to whom the evidence doesn't stick.
Seems it's just a matter of time before Desiigner is cleared.

Abby Wambach Bombshells Divorcing Wife ... Reveals Rx Abuse
Abby Wambach says she's divorcing her wife Sarah Huffman -- the woman she famously kissed after winning the 2015 World Cup.
Wambach and Huffman were married in 2013. Huffman is a former soccer player who played on a pro team with Wambach.
Wambach says their marriage had been on the rocks since at least April ... when Abby was arrested for drunk driving.
In related news, Wambach is also opening up about her struggles with alcohol and prescription pill abuse -- saying she's been abusing Vicodin, Adderall and Ambien for years.
"I was stubborn and I was in denial," Wambach told the AP.
"That night getting arrested was one of the best things that has ever happened to me. Because if I don't get so publicly shamed and publicly humiliated, I don't think I wake up."
Wambach was arrested for DUI in Portland, Oregon on April 3rd. She later pled guilty in the case and has been sober ever since.

Desiigner NO Methadone, No Methamphetamine, No OxyContin Found in SUV
Authorities in New York have some hard decisions to make, because we've learned the illegal narcotics allegedly found in the SUV in which Desiigner was riding were nothing more than steroids.
As we reported, law enforcement told us the stash of pills in the SUV console were OxyContin, methadone and steroids. According to the criminal complaint against Desiigner and the others in the SUV, the arresting officer believed the pills were methamphetamines.
Turns out, all the pills were steroids, including methandrostenolone, PharmOne Oxandrolone and Halotest Fluxymesteron. In all, there were 302 pills in various Ziploc bags ... all steroids.
It appears the steroids all belonged to the driver ... not Desiigner, who's rail thin.
TMZ broke the story, Desiigner was initially charged with possession and intent to sell controlled substances. The intent to sell charge has been dropped but he's still being charged with possession, even though the drugs were not on his person.
Desiigner says he had no idea there were drugs of any sort in the car.
We called the D.A. to find out if they were going to drop the drug charges against Desiigner ... but they had no comment.

WWE's Bo Dallas Video Of Drunken Airport Arrest ... Are Those Nunchucks?
TMZ Sports has obtained footage of WWE superstar Bo Dallas being arrested at an airport in Texas ... moments after he was booted from his flight to Mexico for drunkenly yelling at the flight crew.
In the video, taken on August 26th, you see Bo can barely stand up straight and is slurring his words when approached by security at Dallas Fort Worth airport.
According to the police report, first obtained by ProWrestlingSheet.com, Bo told the cops he had been drinking earlier in the day -- and when asked how much he replied, "I'm not really planning on driving tonight."
Bo was arrested for public intoxication -- but cops noted he was extremely cooperative.
Bo told cops he was a wrestler for WWE -- and officers noted he's a "strong boy."
Make sure to check out the end of the clip when the cops search his backpack and find an item they believe to be nunchucks ... but it's really a jump rope.
No word if Bo ever got to Mexico.

Desiigner Gun Charge Dropped
Desiigner just caught a big break ... the D.A. has dropped the felony gun charge for which he was arrested Thursday night, but he's not out of the woods.
Law enforcement tells TMZ, they cased the SUV in which the "Panda" rapper was a passenger, but found no gun. The arrest for felony possession of a loaded gun was based on what the driver of another car told cops, but the D.A. clearly felt that wasn't enough.
The D.A. has also dropped the charge of felony possession of a controlled substance with the intent to sell.
TMZ broke the story, the passengers in the SUV and the driver of the other car were involved in a road rage incident, and when cops tracked down the SUV they said they found numerous pills on the console. We're told the drugs were Oxycontin, methadone and steroids.
Desiigner is being arraigned Saturday A.M. in an NYC court. He still faces charges of possession of a controlled substance and menacing. It's unclear why the menacing charge is still on the table since it was based on him waiving a gun at the other driver.

Desiigner Drug Charges Include Methadone, Steroids and OxyContin
Desiigner is in a heap of trouble, because TMZ has learned the drugs cops allegedly found in the SUV in which he was riding included OxyContin, methadone and illegal steroids.
TMZ broke the story, the passengers in the SUV and the driver of a car were involved in a road rage incident Thursday night on the streets of New York. The driver of the car claims Desiigner, who was sitting in the back seat of the SUV, pulled a gun and pointed it at him.
The driver of the car called 911, and cops found the SUV, searched it and found a cache of pills in the console ... so many that all 5 people in the car were charged with felony possession of a controlled substance with the intent to sell.
It's interesting ... methadone is used to treat opiate addiction -- opiates like OxyContin, but methadone can also be abused. As for steroids, it's unclear why they were in the car.
Desiigner was also charged with felony possession of a loaded firearm. Law enforcement sources tell us, cops did not find a gun in the SUV but the rapper was still charged based on the description given by the other driver.
You gotta wonder, how would the other driver know the gun was loaded? He doesn't, but we're told cops routinely file such a charge when they have evidence a gun was in a car. They presume it's loaded.
Law enforcement sources tell us cops have obtained a search warrant to literally take the SUV apart, to see if there's a gun in a hidden compartment.

Desiigner and 4 others in the SUV were arrested. All 5 were arrested and charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance and criminal possession of drugs with intent to sell, which are felonies.

Montel Williams is about to launch a line of potent medical marijuana products to fight chronic pain -- but of course ... it's also gonna get some people SUPER high.

Scott Hall Booted From Airport Bar For Calling Bartender a Bitch
Pro wrestler Scott Hall was disqualified from a T.G.I. Friday's for being drunk, rowdy and disrespectful to the bartender.
A witness tells us Hall was at the Friday's in the Atlanta airport on Saturday ... drinking Coors Lights and tequila shots. He allegedly hit on the bartender and called her a bitch, and that's when trouble started brewing with the bartender's father ... who was at the bar.
We're told Hall didn't believe the guy was really her dad, and a manager stepped in and asked him to leave -- when he refused, someone called cops.
Law enforcement sources tell us officers responded to the intoxicated person call. They recognized Hall as his former wrestling alter ego, Razor Ramon ... shook his hand and calmed the situation. You can see in the video though, Scott didn't want to give up his beer easily.
We're told Scott left without further incident and no police report was filed.
Hall has a history with booze and drug abuse, but has said he's been sober recently. We've reached out to his rep.

USC Linebacker Allegedly Snapchatted Rape ... After Drug, Booze Bender
The USC linebacker accused of raping a woman twice back in July allegedly recorded one of the incidents on his phone ... an incident that may have involved ANOTHER USC football player.
TMZ Sports has obtained the search warrant from the investigation into Osa Chad Masina -- a 19-year-old linebacker -- who is being investigated for allegedly drugging and raping a woman on two separate occasions in July.
According to the warrant, issued in Los Angeles, the woman claims she was first raped by Masina on July 15th, 2016 at the apartment of Masina's teammate, Don Hill -- a sophomore linebacker.
The woman told police Masina gave her a couple Xanax pills throughout the day. The woman says she had also been drinking alcohol, including wine by the pool and chugging Captain Morgan at a frat party.
After the frat party, the woman claims she was taken to Hill's apartment -- but insists she was "out of it" due to the Xanax and the booze. However, she remembers smoking weed.
"The next thing the victim recalls is having sex with Osa Chad Masina," the search warrant says.
The woman claims she remembers Masina "holding her head and putting her mouth on his penis" while Hill had vaginal sex with her.
The woman says she later learned Masina had taken videos and pictures of them having sex without her knowledge and/or consent ... and Snapchatted them to her ex-boyfriend. FYI -- the woman's ex-boyfriend is a football player at the University of Arizona.
The next incident allegedly occurred on July 26th in Utah ... after another day of boozing and marijuana use with Masina.
The woman claims she passed out and awoke to see him on top of her, engaging in anal sex with her. She also says he forced oral sex.
The woman says she woke up the next morning in pain and went to police, and a rape kit was administered.
Neither Masina nor Hill has been arrested or charged with any crime -- however, USC has suspended Masina indefinitely.
Cops got a warrant to search Masina's phone and obtain a DNA sample from him.
We reached out to USC and a rep told us they were aware of the allegations against Masina, but would not comment on Hill. FYI -- Hill is still an active member of the USC football team.
