As a die-hard fan of television, I can confidently say that the enduring reality show phenomenon known as “Survivor” stands tall among the greatest shows ever produced. This series continues to captivate audiences without any signs of fading away. However, due to its extended run, some contestants have faced scandals or, sadly, departed this world. The dedicated followers will undoubtedly pay attention since a two-time participant named Brandon Hantz, now going by the moniker “Gun Drop”, has recently been apprehended for racketeering charges.
It seems that while discussions about the earnings of Survivor contestants continue among some fans, a different topic might be garnering more attention online – the current situation of Brandon Hantz. This individual appeared on the show (available for streaming via Paramount+ subscription) on two occasions, with his second stint featuring what seemed like an emotional collapse. According to a report by Us Weekly, Hantz was apprehended for racketeering conspiracy and one count of arson of a building used across state lines. If found guilty for the latter charge, he could face a lengthy prison sentence.
According to the latest report, a former participant on Survivor has been listed among 13 other suspects as part of an apparent crackdown on criminal organizations. He stands accused of belonging to the Bandidos Outlaw Motorcycle Gang in Texas, where he is said to have earned the nicknames “Loco” and “Gun Drop.
In court documents, Hantz, together with 13 others, are charged for alleged violent acts, including murder, robbery, arson, drug distribution, and intimidation of witnesses. More specifically, it is claimed that in an incident slated for 2023, he assisted in the assault of 14 members from a rival gang. As of now, he has two charges against him, with the arson charge potentially leading to a 40-year prison sentence if found guilty.
In his second stint on the popular reality show “Survivor”, Brandon Hantz committed a significant blunder: he threatened other competitors and became such a risk that producers had to expel him from the game. During Episode 4 of Season 26, dubbed “Caramoan”, he confided in his tribemates about contemplating setting their shelter ablaze and contaminating their food stores. Later on, he discarded their rice and beans onto the beach and threatened someone with a machete before being ousted from the game. Hantz’s elimination is one of only a few instances in “Survivor” history where voting (as well as a challenge) was skipped.
As a devoted Survivor enthusiast, it’s no secret that Brandon’s uncle, Russell Hantz, is a notorious heavyweight in the series’ villainous history. Given Russell’s penchant for expressing his bold opinions about all things Survivor, fans will undoubtedly be intrigued to see if he voices his thoughts on Brandon’s recent arrest through social media.
Time alone will reveal the outcome of Brandon Hantz’s legal predicament, however, considering his past experiences in reality television, it’s likely that people will be keeping a close eye on him. This interest is likely to intensify when Survivor makes its comeback as part of the 2025 TV premiere lineup.
