In 2019, Smith was charged with possession and intent to deliver both heroin and cocaine.
Prosecutors say Milwaukee police served a warrant at Smith's Milwaukee apartment in the neighborhood of 35th and Kaul – where Smith tried to get away from police by jumping off a balcony on the third floor. Police caught up to him.

Inside that apartment, police found more than $4,000 in cash and a number of cellphones. They also found a pistol, along with large amounts of cocaine and heroin baggies stuffed in shoeboxes.
Smith was supposed to be in Milwaukee County court this past February for his pending drug case, but he was a no show.
