    Mugshot Mania ~ 3 Teens/1 Adult Arrested in Slaying of Roomates

    Jul, 23 2009 | Written by ATLien

    varner_224130c

    College Park Police have arrested 4 suspects in the execution-style slayings of two female roomates. A third roommate found the bodies of Lanaetria Butler and Karida Wikler early Sunday morning in their apartment in the 3100 block of Godby Road.? Butler was 28.? Winkler was 34.

    It was Lanaetria Butler’s ex-boyfriend that contacted her family in Jacksonville, Fla. with the news of her murder. “He said, ‘A boy that knows me and Renee told me Renee had gotten killed,'” said Elizabeth Butler, Lanaetria’s grandmother. “He was crying when he called me.” Lanaetria Butler left Jacksonville five years ago and moved to Atlanta, according to her mother. Butler is survived by five children, the youngest of whom would be a year old in August.? The oldest, ages 6 and 7 are being cared for by her mother in Jacksonville.

    Working with tips from neighbors, police arrested and charged 3 teens for the gruesome crime. 18-year-old Boubacar Traore, and 19-year-olds Anthony Wilder and Carnell Owens. Late Wednesday night, police also identified a fourth suspect in the double-homicide, Christopher Lorenzo Varner, 23. Each have been charged with murder after also attempting to rob Winkler and Butler. College Park police spokesman, Sgt. Eddie Atkins says one of the women was discovered in the apartment’s dining room.? The other in the kitchen.? Each woman had been shot once in the head.

    Wilder was arrested Tuesday night in Union City on different charges, College Park police detective Sgt. Eddie Atkins said. ?We had a tip that he had information,? Atkins said of Wilder. ?Detectives interviewed him and he confessed.? During the interview, Wilder gave up two of his accomplices.

    Owens was picked up at 2727 Godby Road, an apartment complex just blocks away from Butler?s and Winkler?s apartment and Traore was arrested in an apartment in the same complex where the women lived, but police declined to say whether he knew them.

    All four arrested suspects are being held at the College Park jail without bond.

    Mugshot Mania ~ In Memory of Steve McNair & His Jump Off

    Jul, 7 2009 | Written by ATLien

    McNair Killed

    You’ve heard it from a gazillion other places I know, but authorities say Sahel Kazemi (pictured above in an undated mugshot) is responsible for the murder of retired quarterback, Steve McNair and then took her own life. The story is one that industry dudes should take note of, simply because it could have been avoided.

    McNair was married, recently retired from the NFL and had decided to build a quiet life in Nashville with his family, which included his wife of 12 years who was the mother of two of his 4 sons. He met Kazemi about 6 months ago at a restaurant whre she was a waitress and where he often ate with his family. The two began they’re fateful affair and McNair lavished the naive 20 year old with gifts and trips around the country.? She was young and caught up. McNair gave her an Cadillac Escalade for her birthday and took her on trips to Las Vegas and Key West, Fla.

    Friends and family say that Kazemi seemed to think that their relationship was true and appeared confident the pair would last. She had even introduced McNair to her family and her nephew quoted her as saying McNair was divorcing his wife and that it would be finalized soon.

    ?I think she had already put her stuff up for sale on Craigslist,? Abdi (nephew) said.

    The first sign of trouble was early Thursday Continue Reading…

    Mugshot Mania ~ Another Smart Walmart Shopper

    Jun, 22 2009 | Written by ATLien

    orignal_1147001_83j9scz_williams

    When I read this story, I had a strange feeling of deja vu. I know you guys recall the Mom who left her two infants in the car to shoplift, well this weekend yet another Walmart shopper was caught and given the mother of the year award for leaving her twins in a hot car while she shopped at a Clayton County Walmart:

    A Barnesville mother was arrested Saturday night after leaving her 4-month-old twins in her locked car while shopping at a Clayton County Wal-Mart.

    The infants, who weren?t harmed, were discovered by another shopper who could hear their cries through the cracked windows of Jenesia Williams? Toyota Scion.

    ?I was in total shock,? said Darlene Marshall, of Stockbridge, who was parked next to the Scion. She and her husband were leaving the Ellenwood store, a little after 10 p.m., when she discovered the twins.

    Marshall said she hesitated before calling 911.

    ?I just assumed the mother would be right out,? she said. Instead, it would be ?at least 20 minutes? before Williams, 26, reappeared, Marshall said.

    Police were waiting for Williams, who was arrested and charged with two counts of child cruelty. The children were taken to an area hospital, where they were check out and released to the custody their father. (source)

    It’s been upwards of 90 degrees lately and those kids could have died in that heat! I’m calling for all you dumb mothers to give up your kids today. You don’t have to keep em if you don’t have common sense. Seriously. Their lives are in your hands and if you can’t protect them let somebody else do it.? That’s my PSA for the day.

    Jun, 19 2009 | Written by ATLien

    opie-mugshot

    An Atlanta man was convicted on Thursday of taking his 16-year-old first cousin to Metropolitan Parkway for prostitution.

    Zaccheus Obie, 26, will be sentenced on Wednesday for one count of pimping a minor. He faces a possible 20-year prison sentence. According to testimony, police learned of Obie after the girl was arrested in May 2008. He bought her clothes and paid to have her hair done before she was sent to stroll Metropolitan Parkway. According to testimony, he took her money.

    While the case involving his 16-year-old cousin has been resolved, he also is charged with raping the girl?s younger sister, also Obie?s first cousin. That case has not been taken to trial. (Source)

    I have no words for this scumbag….

        Straight From the A to the Hall of Fame! This one Straight From the A to the Hall of Fame! This one hits different. 👽🛸

OutKast’s induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2025 isn’t just a win for hip-hop — it’s a celebration of Atlanta’s heartbeat. Before there was Real Housewives, Love & Hip Hop, or any Atlanta reality show, there was the Atlanta music scene — real stories, real people, and a creative energy that could only come from the Southside.

I grew up in Southwest Atlanta, and back then, it wasn’t unusual to bump into (or run with) the same circles as OutKast and the Dungeon Family. We were all just young ATL dreamers finding our voices, our style, and our lane. Somewhere along the way, I kinda inserted myself as an unofficial member of that crew, a sister to the culture, always front and center, documenting the movement before “content creator” was even a thing.

When I started blogging in 2007, Straight From The A wasn’t about reality TV or viral gossip. It was about the music, the movement, and the people who put Atlanta on the map. My blog name, my pen name ATLien, my whole digital identity was inspired by @outkast , @goodiemob , @killermike , @ceelogreen @sleepybrown , and the whole Dungeon Family - the original ATLiens who made the world respect the South. 

And Killer Mike — I’ll never forget how you encouraged me to keep pushing nearly 20 years ago when blogging was still that “weird internet thing.”

Today, I celebrate the legends who defined Atlanta’s sound, spirit, and swagger. True innovators. True visionaries. Forever ATL. 👽🛸

        The Kenya Moore Hair Spa drama just got even MESSI The Kenya Moore Hair Spa drama just got even MESSIER, chile! 
The landlord has officially clapped back in court — filing their answer to Kenya’s counterclaim, and whew, they brought receipts on receipts! 

According to the filing, Kenya hasn’t paid a dime in rent or utilities since December 2024, which technically makes her a squatter! 😬 And about that $80K tenant improvement allowance she’s been fighting for? The landlord says she’s in default and violated several terms, meaning that deal is void.

This whole thing is turning into a Bravo-level courtroom saga… minus the peach! 🍑

The full 99-page amended complaint (with all the juicy details) is available now on Patreon + Members Only! http://patreon.com/atlien or hit the link in bio for the exclusive legal tea.

So what do y’all think? Can Kenya spin this, or is the Hair Spa officially a wrap?
