The name “White Boy Rick” was not a street name that Wershe used himself, nor was it one he was ever called by those with whom he associated.

The name was instead given to him by reporters who covered his case. When Wershe was 16, the FBI no longer needed him, so he began selling cocaine himself without the FBI’s knowledge. Wershe’s father Richard Wershe Sr. was likewise used to work as an informant for the FBI before going solo.

Unfortunately, Wershe Jr got arrested for possession of cocaine in excess of eight kilograms that resulted in life in prison in Michigan under the state’s 650-Lifer Law, a drug statute that punished those found in the ownership of more than 650 grams of cocaine or heroin with life imprisonment without parole. He somehow earned parole in 2017 after almost 30 years behind bars. Early 2017, Wershe Jr. was head over to U.S Marshals from Oaks Correctional Facility in Michigan.

Wershe Jr is held at The Transition House in Kissimmee, Florida, after spending three decades in prison in Michigan as a nonviolent drug offender. He was housed at Florida State Prison after pleading guilty to being connected in a car theft ring. He pleaded guilty to protect his mother and sister.
