Ex-WWE Star Ted DiBiase Jr’s Criminal Trial Postponed After Filing Sealed Motions

Ted DiBiase Jr., didn’t reach the same level of fame in WWE as his father did and this always disappointed fans. However, he’s now known for his role in a large embezzlement scandal where millions of dollars were stolen. His criminal case, which has been going on for some time, has been delayed yet again after sealed motions were filed recently.

Ted DiBiase Jr. is involved in Mississippi’s largest welfare embezzlement scam in the state’s history and is facing numerous serious charges. The son of The Million Dollar Man pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States.

Brett DiBiase previously pled guilty to two charges in Hinds County Circuit Court. He was also charged with six counts of wire fraud and four counts of money laundering. The former WWE Superstar is currently facing up to five years in federal prison and fine of up to $250,000 in addition to his sentence in state court. If convicted on all counts, DiBiase could face a maximum of 45 years imprisonment and a million-dollar fine. It was previously reported that the trial had been rescheduled to January 2025.

According to PWInsider, several motions were filed in Ted DiBiase Jr.’s criminal case, although the details of those motions remain sealed. These filings resulted in a decision by Magistrate Judge LaKeysha Greer Isaac to push back the scheduled January 2025 trial, along with all related deadlines and hearings. The former WWE star was initially set to go on trial on January 7, 2025, with a pre-trial hearing scheduled for December 13, but both dates have now been postponed.

Ted DiBiase has already commented on his son’s arrest. Only time will tell how the case will be handled next year, but it certainly does not look good for Ted DiBiase Jr., especially since the trial is facing constant delays at the moment.
