Adrian Bean, a witness for Atlanta District Attorney Fani Willis’s office in a trial of a rapper, admitted in court Tuesday that he was “so high” and “about to go to sleep,” Newsweek reported.
Bean was allegedly the getaway driver for the rapper Jeffrey Williams, whose stage name is Young Thug, and other defendants in an armed robbery, a shooting and a car chase in September 2013, the outlet noted.
Willis’s office indicted Williams in May 2022 on RICO charges and alleged that the rapper was an important affiliate of Young Slime Life (YSL), an Atlanta street gang with ties to the Bloods, the outlet reported.
A video clip by the Law & Crime Network captured the hilarious moment in Bean’s testimony.

A video obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF) has surfaced, raising concerns as it appears to show a U.S. service member guarding a room filled with illegal aliens at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. The footage, captured by Republican state Sen. Colton Moore, vice chairman of the Georgia Freedom Caucus, sheds light on the presence of a hidden room full of migrants at the major U.S. airport.
Senator Moore learned of this location through a whistleblower at the airport, who observed a surge in illegal aliens passing through the facility in recent months. The video depicts a uniformed soldier guarding the room, which contains migrants and volunteers associated with Team Libertad, a group acknowledged for aiding migrants in their travels. In the video, a volunteer from Team Libertad mentions, “We’re all getting them flights to where they need to be,” referring to recently documented travelers released from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
The individuals seen in the video claim to be providing assistance to migrants who are dropped off at the airport by ICE with no support. Team Libertad, affiliated with the nonprofit organization Inspiritus, greets migrants at the Atlanta airport and accompanies them to their gates. According to a sign-up page used by the organization to recruit volunteers, Team Libertad helps travelers navigate Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, with information protected by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
The video raises questions about the involvement of military personnel in guarding the room. While the branch affiliation of the uniformed individual is unclear, a Georgia National Guard spokesperson stated they are not aware of the incident, and the Pentagon has not responded to inquiries from the DCNF.
Senator Moore, who can be heard in the video, explained that the apparent soldier guarding the room eventually confiscated his phone, halting the filming. The room, reportedly packed with individuals from various continents, sparked chaos when the recording was attempted.
The Biden administration has faced scrutiny for flying illegal aliens on secretive overnight trips to various locations, including New York, since August 2021. The revelations come amid a surge in illegal alien crossings at the southern U.S. border, with federal data recording over 2.2 million encounters in fiscal year 2022 and more than 2 million in fiscal year 2023.

An Atlanta-area teacher is facing multiple counts of possessing child pornography after investigators received a tip from the National Center of Missing and Exploited Children.
On April 14, someone from Washington state contacted the National Center of Missing and Exploited Children regarding the possible online sexual exploitation of a child by a teacher at Poole’s Mill Elementary School in Cumming, Georgia, about 40 miles northeast of the state capital. NCMEC then alerted the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office’s Internet Crimes Against Children Unit.
An investigation into the NCMEC tip led police to 38-year-old James Andrew “Drew” Cecil, who had been teaching fourth grade at Poole’s Mill Elementary for about two years. He also previously spent five years as a teacher and volleyball coach at North Forsyth High School in the same district.
Cecil was arrested last Friday without incident. He has been charged with nine counts of possession of child pornography and one count of sexual exploitation of a child. He was booked into Forsyth County Jail and assessed a bond of $55,200. He has likely been released on bond, as his name no longer appears on jail records. It is unclear when he is expected to appear in court. (Read more from “Elementary Teacher Accused of Possessing Child Porn” HERE)

Back in April, Major League Baseball decided to punish Atlanta by moving the 2021 All-Star game out of the city in response to a Georgia voting law signed into law by Gov. Brian Kemp (R-GA) in March. The game was instead played in Denver, Colorado, which as Katie highlighted, actually has fewer early voting days than Georgia. Well, the Atlanta Braves have gone and made it to the World Series after defeating the Los Angeles Dodgers Saturday night in Game 6 of the National League Championship Series (NLCS), 4-2.
Braves! Major League Baseball pulled the all star game from Atlanta this year and the Braves responded with their first World Series this century! Glorious karma. Love it!
Gov. Kemp called out his 2018 gubernatorial opponent, Stacey Abrams, who has continued to spread lies about that election.
While Stacey Abrams and the MLB stole the All-Star Game from hardworking Georgians, the Braves earned their trip to the World Series this season and are bringing it home to Georgia.

A black Atlanta mother has filed a federal lawsuit against a black principal and public school after her daughter and other students were separated by race and then taught in separate classrooms.
Kila Posey filed her complaint against Mary Lin Elementary School in which she said Principal Sharyn Briscoe informed her that she instituted the segregated classroom concept because she felt that would be best for students.
Posey, who is vice president of operations for the local Parent Teachers Association (PTA) said she first learned about the segregated classrooms when she called Briscoe to request that her daughter be placed in a certain classroom with a specific teacher. Briscoe responded by informing Posey that wouldn’t work out because that teacher’s classroom was not one that had been established for black students.
“[The principal] said that’s not one of the black classes, and I immediately said, ‘What does that mean?’ I was confused,” Posey recalled.
“I asked for more clarification. I was like, ‘We have those in the school?’ And she proceeded to say, ‘Yes. I have decided that I’m going to place all of the black students in two classes,’” Posey continued.

Reacting to skyrocketing violent crime in Atlanta, the city’s richest neighborhood has filed papers to secede and set up its own police force.
“We filed our divorce papers at the city of Atlanta — and our divorce is final,” Bill White, chairman and CEO of the Buckhead City Committee, told Fox News’ Bill Hemmer on Thursday.
He said he expects to have a referendum on the ballot in 2022, and 80% of his community will vote in favor of separation.
The new community, Buckhead City, will have its own court, judge and jail, White said.
“And we are going to put the smackdown on this crime once and for all here, because the people of Buckhead have had enough,” he said.

An Atlanta city councilman – who is aiming to be the city’s next mayor – had his car stolen by children in broad daylight Wednesday, according to reports.
Councilman Antonio Brown was attending a ribbon-cutting ceremony at an event in northeast Atlanta around noon when at least four kids jumped into his car and took off, FOX 5 of Atlanta reported.
“You don’t immediately think, ‘Oh, these kids are going to steal my car,’” Brown said, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
The incident occurred amid a recent crime wave in the city. Brown, who joined the city’s mayoral race less than three weeks ago, is running on a campaign of “reimagining public safety,” the paper reported.
Last year, he voted in support of an ordinance to withhold $73 million from the budget of the Atlanta Police Department. The ordinance was narrowly voted down. (Read more from “‘Defund the Police’ Councilman Has Car Stolen — By Kids in Broad Daylight” HERE)

By New York Post. The man charged with murder for a shooting spree at Atlanta-area spas had “a really bad day” and was seeking to “eliminate” a sexual “temptation” prior to killing eight people, a sheriff’s captain in Georgia claimed.
Capt. Jay Baker of the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office made the cryptic remark about Robert Aaron Long during a Wednesday morning press briefing on the series of shootings.
“He has an issue that he considers a sex addiction and sees these locations as something that allows him to go to these places,” said Baker, without elaborating further on what pushed Long, 21, over the edge. “It’s a temptation for him that he wanted to eliminate.”
Baker added: “He was pretty much fed up and kind of at the end of his rope, and yesterday was a really bad day for him, and this is what he did.” (Read more from “Spa Shooting Suspect Had ‘Bad Day’ Before Massacre: Cops” HERE)
8 Dead, Suspect in Custody After Shootings at Georgia Massage Parlors
By New York Post. A suspect was busted Tuesday evening for the slayings of eight people in shootings at three massage parlors staffed primarily by Asian women in Atlanta and a suburb, police said.
The suspected gunman, Robert Aaron Long, 21, of Woodstock, Ga., was captured Tuesday night about 150 miles south of Atlanta.
Authorities believe Long opened fire on five people shortly before 5 p.m. in Young’s Asian Massage in Cherokee County, Ga., officials said. Four of the victims of that shooting died, according to the sheriff’s office.
The victims included two Asian women, a Caucasian woman and a Caucasian man, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. (Read more from “8 Dead, Suspect in Custody After Shootings at Georgia Massage Parlors” HERE)

Armed protesters stood guard on Tuesday at an Atlanta-area Wendy’s, the site where Rayshard Brooks, a black man shot twice in the back by an Atlanta police officer, died earlier this month.
Earlier in the day, a group of people had “taken over” the burned-out property in South Atlanta, according to local reports.
People living in the area also have complained that the protesters who remained were no longer peaceful, but instead were using the space for their own gain and at times blocking people on the street from getting by.
They claimed the Atlanta police weren’t doing much to solve the problem, making life for those living in the neighborhood a living nightmare. . .
Jones has been living about a mile from the Wendy’s where Brooks was shot and said it’s been physically difficult to get to her neighborhood ever since the group took over the parking lot and began wreaking havoc. (Read more from “Armed Protesters ‘Take Over’ Wendy’s Parking Lot” HERE)
They matter because when a dangerous lie criminalizing all police and victimizing every black criminal is allowed to metastasize, it turns America into a violent, lawless nation, harming the very people that movement purports to champion. The new rioting over what appears to be an act of self-defense on the part of an Atlanta cop demonstrates that this movement was never about justice for George Floyd.
The reason why the video showing the killing of George Floyd sparked so much outrage is precisely because it was so anomalous in police encounters. The video appears to show Minneapolis cop Derek Chauvin kneeling, presumably with a lot of pressure, on Floyd’s neck for nine minutes, in a contained situation long after Floyd had been subdued.
Well, now we know that the outrage was not over that anomalous act. What the latest blood libel in Atlanta demonstrates is that those pushing the lie seek to criminalize basic police work and lionize career criminals who needlessly escalate arrests into violent altercations, often killing others.
“Cop who shot Rayshard Brooks dead is fired as bodycam shows the black man talking politely to cops” was the headline the U.K. Daily Mail used to describe the shooting of Rayshard Brooks, 27, in Atlanta late Friday night.
“Rayshard Brooks was shot and killed when he was merely asleep on the passenger side and not doing anything,” proclaimed NAACP vice president Gerald Griggs.
Here is a tweet from the AP regarding the incident:
Body camera footage released by Atlanta police shows Rayshard Brooks appearing good-humored and largely cooperative with two white officers for about 40 minutes during an encounter that ended with Brooks being fatally shot by police. https://t.co/Cejj1Prstg
This is no different from the old blood libels against Jews in Russia.
Any sane person watching this video will realize that, yes, the police were very amicable to him. But that all changed when Brooks violently resisted arrest and grabbed the taser from one of the cops on the scene. You can clearly see in the video that the cop only drew his gun when the fleeing Brooks turned around and fired the taser at him.
Clearly, this case is in line with the vast majority of police shootings of both black and white suspects and many of the others that the media turned into a blood libel against the cops, such as the Michael Brown case in Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014. It was clear self-defense, and had the suspect been white, we would never have heard of it. The cop wouldn’t have been fired and rioters wouldn’t have burned down the Wendy’s where the shooting occurred, nor would they have blocked an interstate. And frankly, had they done so, the power of government would immediately have crushed their actions.
But this is what happens during a blood libel that revolves around race instead of justice and facts. Riot first, get the facts later.
I’m seeing some commentators who clearly concede the self-defense point but lament that something so low-level, such as a drunk driver blocking the Wendy’s drive-through, could result in a death. Yes, it is tragic. This is what many cops have to deal with regularly. Many violent career criminals are often caught committing low-level crimes. Cops approach them as if they are innocuous, just as in this case, where clearly the cops treated him as just someone who had too much to drink. But there’s something interesting about violent criminals who barely serve time for past offenses: They are not deterred from acting violent again. Cops never know when someone is going to turn violent on them.
In this case, Brooks appears to have had an extensive criminal record, which included violent criminal charges in Georgia.
It appears that his last bout with the law was in Lucas County (Toledo), Ohio, on December 30, when he was charged with violating his probation as a fugitive from Georgia and was returned to Georgia on January 6.
He also appears to have had a criminal record dating back to 2010 when he was a juvenile, along with numerous parole violations. The system really gave him a lot of grace.
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, he was working for a restoration company in Toledo, Ohio. The paper doesn’t say when he worked there, but the company evidently put out a message on Instagram praising him.
Could Brooks have been running from the law? He appears to have served only four months of a seven-year sentence in 2014 for charges and convictions of simple battery, cruelty to children, false imprisonment, family violence battery, receiving stolen property, criminal interference with government property, weapons charges, and obstructing a law enforcement officer in the preceding years.
It looks like there were numerous probation violations until a parole officer issued a warrant for his arrest on December 20, 2018, when he had fled to Ohio. It’s not clear why he wasn’t put back in prison when he was returned to Georgia this past January, but it does appear he was supposed to report to the Clayton County Probation Office and was scheduled for a February 5 parole revocation hearing, according to court records.
That would explain why he violently resisted arrest on Friday night. Could he have been a criminal with a violent record who got parole instead of hard time and continued to violate his parole?
Well, thus far, the media has been silent about his record and has lauded him as the ultimate family man. ABC News did an interview with his employer in Toledo and praised him as “dedicated to hard work and his family” for moving to Ohio in the spring of 2019 to support them. They fail to mention that he already had an arrest warrant in December 2018, and perhaps that is why he left the state. They fail to mention the original underlying crime of family violence and cruelty to a child.
ABC quotes his former employer as saying that Brooks left the company in December to go back to his family in Atlanta “but indicated that he was going to return after “getting some ducks in order.” Well, those ducks might have been his surrender to the extraditing authorities on December 30 thanks to the cooperation of Lucas County.
There is a video of Brooks lamenting his probation situation just a few weeks ago.
The truth is that the George Floyd protests were never about justice or racism. There was never any indication of racial animus involved, and the cops were indicted very swiftly. The entire premise of police brutality directed specifically toward black victims is nonsense. But when it comes to suspects who are black shot by police, the media and culture create a soft bigotry of low expectations that rioting is acceptable.
Take the police shooting of Daniel Shaver in Mesa, Arizona, for example. On January 18, 2016, cops were called to the scene of a hotel where someone thought Shaver was brandishing a firearm, when in fact he was showing someone the pellet gun he was using for his job as an animal trapper. The following is a video of the encounter, and it is very graphic, ending with the shooting of Shaver in what appears to be cold blood.
The cop was acquitted on all charges by a jury. The cop was white and Shaver was white. So nobody rioted, and few people in the entire country even know who Daniel Shaver is.
The bottom line is that among the nearly 1 million law enforcement officers, there will always be bad people who abuse the force of authority they are given. This is also true of the military. Those bad people tend to be brutal or overreact under stress no matter the race of the individual they are confronting. As researchers from the University of Michigan and University of Maryland reported last year, “We did not find evidence for anti-Black or anti-Hispanic disparity in police use of force across all shootings, and, if anything, found anti-White disparities when controlling for race-specific crime.”
We only hear the times police actually use force, usually in a justifiable manner with few exceptions. We never hear about the times they use underwhelming force and endanger their lives or the lives of others and allow dangerous criminals to get away. What people often forget is that cops’ lethal force is a double-edged sword of “use it or lose it.” While a taser is not always necessarily deadly force, had the cop allowed Brooks to incapacitate him with a taser, Brooks could then have taken his gun. Remember Sgt. Michael Chesna – the Massachusetts cop who was incapacitated by a “nonlethal” rock thrown by a criminal who then grabbed the cop’s gun and killed him? Yes, I’m sure you don’t remember it, because nobody rioted over it, but clearly cops have the right not to become another victim.
This is not the true equality real justice warriors like Martin Luther King dreamed of. This is nothing but a blood libel against cops who encounter black criminals and will ensure that they don’t respond to calls from black victims in the future.
This cop clearly had no interest in being at that location late at night, but he was called there by a witness because the drive-through was being blocked. Much more of this, and cops will just sit back and let the violence play out among citizens.
To the political agitators, however, it’s not about black lives, but blue votes and green dollars going into their coffers from giant corporations. For us, it’s the blood libels that matter. Gauging by the Baltimore “Freddie Gray effect” — the phenomenon of deterring cops and emboldening criminals — now going national, countless thousands of African-Americans will become victims of homicide and other crimes.
