Last night on Basketball Wives Los Angeles Draya Michele was confronted by the other cast members about her arrest last January for endangering the welfare of her son. Draya, real name Andraya Michele Howard, tells them that the story was made up and the reporter was fired. Guess what? She lied. The reporter, Steve Henshaw, did not make up the story (see the court docket at the end of this story) and he has not been fired.
MrsGrapevine got in touch with the reporter who explained that he wrote the original story from documents at the court house. That means the police, the reporter and the court would have to be in a big scheme to make up a story about Draya. Really? Why would they bother.
I went to the court’s website and found the criminal docket. The docket lists the arrest date is 1/13/2011. She later copped a plea in a lower court and was admitted to the advanced rehabilitation disposition (ARD) program and ordered to pay $2043.62. She was even given a payment plan (see page 5). Page 3 lists the punishment as community service and counseling for 24 months.
The reporter states that after she completes her community service/counseling her record might be expunged.
She would have been better off saying she didn’t want to talk about it instead of saying the reporter lied and was fired. She doesn’t owe her cast members any explanation. Also, she had to have known they would bring this up on the show for ratings so maybe the best thing would have been for her to not have gone on that type of show.

No professional was there to authenticate any police report. It was hearsay. I am the lead member of Team Draya. And we got this. Jackie could be sued for slander.

I agree. I can’t stand the rest of those women and how judgmental they all are. They all have some serious skeletons in their closets so they have no right to say sh*t to Draya about anything. The police report does not have all those details about her son’s or the police’s statements so I don’t believe all that so easily. Malaysia and Draya are the only ones I like on this show.
THIS IS MY STORY. THE WHOLE SHOW SUCKS. ALL THE WOMEN ARE SO OUT OF PLACE. THEY SEEM TO OLD TO BE INVOLD IN A SHOW SUCH AS THIS ONE.THE GIRL IN QUESTION IS A REAL PEACE OF WORK. SHE HAVE BEEN BITTEN BY THE STAR BUG SO THERE IS NO TELLIN WHAT SHE MIGHT DO. THE ONE THAT CLAIM THAT SHE HAVENT BEEN WITH A MAN IN YEARS IS ABOUT TO DATE THIS WHITE GUY WHO IS A QUEEN. OUT OF ALL THE MEN SHE PICK A WHITE GAY ONE. THE ONE JACKET IS A FREAK TO ME SHE WANTS TO GET DRAYA TO FREAK WITH HER AND HER HUSBAND.WHERE IS THE ONE MALAYSIA IS SO DIZZY WHY DONT WE EVER SEE HER HUSBAND.I AM ABOUT TO STOP WATCHIN THIS SHOW PERIOD.ITS BORING AND FOULL OF BULL SHI#.

i like draya in the series also…she may have lied about the arrest…but not once since ive been watching the show have i seen draya player hate any of the other women. You can tell draya has a big heart by last weeks show when laura got her in the ring and tried to literally hurt her instead of communicating with her about accusation of draya speaking about here kids. draya , in my opinion, has showed more class and tolerance than any of the wives on the L.A. show. I think someone should tell draya to watch her back…jealousy among women can be dangerous.
