You can't do this to the English language. You can be in danger of
something, you can be at risk for something, and you can even be in
trouble over something. But use of a prepositional dependent clause
starting with the word 'of' doesn't happen after the phrase 'in trouble'
even in colloquial use. Please, get some native speakers to edit your
prose before it goes up for public consumption, especially on a website.
