Investigators said Weldon has a history of breaking the law, but it’s what happened in 2020 that got him in trouble with federal law enforcement. He was arrested, along with more than 20 others, for his involvement in the street gang known as the "Buffum-Meinecke Boys." Weldon was convicted of dealing cocaine. He spent time in prison and was later put on supervised release. He then found himself in trouble again.

"He’s failed to report to his probation officer eight times, failed multiple drug tests and has been a loss of contact since November of '23," the marshal said.

"This is all going to come back to bite him in the end," the marshal said.
