TMZ has learned the famously tatted MMA badboy was arrested by Tustin police Monday afternoon after they spotted the 6'3", 235 lb fighter wearing a Long Beach Police Dept. jumpsuit, complete with patches and a cloth badge -- a badge only cops are allowed to wear. The officers -- the real officers -- then searched Kimo's ride, where they claim to have found "a small amount of what is believed to be meth."
Impersonating a police officer is a pretty serious offense in and of itself. When you add in the meth I think we can expect Kimo to spend a fair amount of time in jail after this one.
Adding another level of the bizarre to the story was the recent push by Kimo to be Executive Officer of the California State Athletic Commission. For a man to say that he should be in charge of cleaning up a corrupt situation and then go out and impersonate a cop while holding meth.......words fail me.

Dude...
Wasn’t he vying for the head of the CSAC? This means he’ll get it for sure!

Kimo Leopoldo does meth? I couldn't tell from that completely inocuos picture!
Brad Ziegler had a scoreless inning streak. Brad Ziegler had not met BJ Upton.
This story registers pretty high on the weird-shit-o-meter.

Maybe he just thought it was Halloween?
Brad Ziegler had a scoreless inning streak. Brad Ziegler had not met BJ Upton.
so why is he not in already in prison for gang rape? was he just awaiting trial?
no one else has mentioned this so far. i assumed that story was all over BE….
Best of luck to Kimo in getting clean. That shit is no joke.

Who said he was smoking it?
Maybe he’s distributing. Dude was impersonating a police officer. There’s no telling what dirty shit he was getting into..

Imo he was high on energy drinks and thought he needed to save people from meth, so he stole it from dealers and junkies disguised as a cop.
So which one of you regularly browses TMZ to get those news? haha. :D

I will say...
that I saw this in a comment on one of our other stories and said “well…TMZ will have the scoop if it were true” and there it was. TMZ as a concept is awful. TMZ as the place to go if you hear a rumor that a “celebrity” got popped…is fan-fucking-tastic

Well, that about wraps it up for the stripping industry.
"BJ on the BE" - Kierkegaard
another site implied he wore the uniform to shake down junkies and get some free meth for himself.
sounds as plausible as anything….
