La’el Collins went undrafted over the weekend and it is understandable. It isn’t fair IF he is cleared, but no one is going to draft someone who possibly put a hit out on his pregnant Ex-girlfriend. As far of Collins being the triggerman, he has a rock solid alibi that he was nowhere near the crime scene.
Sources close to the investigation tell us … Collins — who was a projected 1st round NFL draft pick before the double murder — spoke with investigators and said he has witnesses and phone records that prove he was nowhere close to Brittney Mills on the night she was gunned down.
Mills was shot to death around 10:30 PM on April 24th at her apartment in Baton Rouge.
But Collins told investigators he was an hour away in New Orleans at the time of the shooting — as part of an overnight trip with friends and family to watch the New Orleans Pelicans take on the Golden State Warriors on Saturday April 25th.
We’re told Collins also claims he has texts and emails proving the group had planned the trip several days before the killing … and he believes GPS records on his cell phone will back up his story.
Collins hasn’t been named a suspect and he told police he hadn’t spoken to his ex-girlfriend in months. If this all checks out and they police can rule out him hiring someone to do the killing, it will just be a case of very bad timing for Collins.
With that being said let’s just wait and see how the investigation turns out.
