Other charges include domestic terrorism, arson in the first degree, and money laundering.

The indictment listed 225 alleged “overt acts in furtherance of the racketeering conspiracy.” Yikes!The bulk of the defendants named in the indictment involves protestors arrested on March 5 at the training center site.

Three people accused of handing out flyers in April identifying one of the troopers involved in the Teran’s death were also indicted. The flyers were distributed in Bartow County, which is the area where the trooper is believe to live, according to The Intercept. The indictment also names bail fund organizers, Marlon Scott Kautz, Adele Maclean and Savannah Patterson, who were arrested in May 2023 during a raid at a home on Mayson Avenue for alleged actions taken as executives with the nonprofit Network for Strong Communities, which supported the nonprofit Defend the Atlanta Forest. All three face one count of RICO and 15 counts of money laundering in the indictment.
