Former WWE Superstar Ted DiBiase Jr. has shared his first comments after pleading not guilty to multiple felony charges.
This week, DiBiase Jr. was charged with fraudulently obtaining money from The Emergency Food Assistance Program and the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families.
In an update, Ross Adams of WAPT-ABC Channel 16 is reporting that DiBiase pled not guilty to the 13-count indictment in federal court.
DiBiase appeared in front of the judge with shackles on his ankles and chains at his waist, along with handcuffs.
DiBiase was asked by local news if he had any comments as he left the courthouse. He said,
“Jesus loves you, brother. God bless you, man.”
If convicted, DiBiase faces a total of 80 years in federal prison in what has been described as the biggest fraud case in the history of Mississippi.
