According to a police report, Heun was arrested while importing around 800 grams of methamphetamine, which ended up confiscated in France after a package fell during a flight between the country and Australia. The package, however, had the athlete's address – which ended up being investigated and revealed that he was still involved in other illegal activities.
Jake even claimed that he was receiving US$1 (around R$5,6, at the current exchange rate) to receive the package before pleading guilty to importing the product. He also had his cell phone seized and, in conversations with his girlfriend, he also sent photos of other packages of cocaine. Once released, the athlete must be deported.
An MMA professional since 2011, Jake Heun has a record of 15 triumphs and nine setbacks in his career. The heavyweight (up to 120,2 kg.) competed in events such as WSOF, Rizin FF, as well as an unsuccessful stint in 'The Ultimate Fighter 19', where he ended up finished in two fights.
