Bombshell news out of Argentina where SEVEN people have been charged with homicide in the death of soccer legend Diego Maradona.
Maradona died back in November from heart failure just 2 weeks after undergoing brain surgery. He was only 60.
The Maradona family was suspicious and felt there was something fishy behind his death which led to a special investigation into the situation.
Police in Argentina raided the house and private clinic of Dr. Leopoldo Luque(the surgeon who performed the brain operation) in the days following his death — and clearly, they believe they found enough evidence to prove criminal wrongdoing.
