The story making the rounds in the WWE locker room regarding Jeff Hardy's explanation for his legal troubles is that he was arrested when police conducted a raid after a package was sent to his home that had been flagged before it was delivered. Apparently, Hardy brought the package inside and police officials were on the scene to conduct the raid.

The story goes that Hardy did not know what the package contained and that it was sent to him by someone from outside North Carolina who had expressed interest in doing business with him.

Jeff is said to be in much better spirits at this point than he was after he was initially arrested. He has told friends that he hired a top notch attorney. Hardy went from asking friends to pray for him because he feared jail time to believing that he could face minimal punishment.

Powell's POV: Keep in mind that this is merely a story going around the locker room. I've heard variations of the story from a few sources now. Jeff will eventually have his day in court to state his case, if it goes that far. At this point, I wouldn't rule out some type of plea agreement. Hardy is scheduled to return to court in November.
