Search warrant says Eric Leak gave UNC athlete improper benefits

RALEIGH

A search warrant from a 28-month investigation of a Raleigh sports management company and its owner, former N.C. State football player Eric Leak, says state agents found evidence that Leak had given an unnamed UNC athlete "improper benefits ... in violation of the North Carolina Uniform Athlete Agents Act."

The search warrant application stated that the documents had come to light during a previous search of Leak’s business, Hot Shots Sports Management Inc., at 5022 Isabella Cannon Drive by David L. Rose, an investigator for the Secretary of State’s office. It said that search was authorized as part of a separate investigation.
