    Meet the women of Craigslist. Terri Confer, 55; Carla Fortner, 44; Annie Walker, 43; Jennifer Adams, 22; Cheri Phillips, 53; Deborah Ingram, 42; were all arrested following a six-week investigation of Craigslist. ?These women were offering several “erotic” services via the popular website and were directing customers to a home in a quiet community in Cherokee County, Georgia.

    According to the Sheriff?s Office, investigators seized $15,000 in cash, a laptop computer, marijuana and heroin while executing a search warrant at the house, which advertises its services on Craigslist.com.

    Two customers were at the house at the time, but were not immediately charged, the sheriff?s department said.

    Arrested were: Terri Confer, 55, of Woodstock on charges of pimping and keeping a place of prostitution; Cheri Phillips, 53, of Woodstock, on felony charges of possession of heroin and possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute; Annie Walker, 43, of Kennesaw, on charges of masturbation for hire, unlawful massage and giving a false name to law enforcement; and Deborah Ingram, 42, of Kennesaw, Carla Fortner, 44, of Dallas, Ga., and Jennifer Adams, 22 of Acworth, all on charges of masturbation for hire and unlawful massage.

    Mugshot Mania ~ El “Long Hair Don’t Care” DeBarge + Flashback Footage

    Oct, 30 2008 | Written by ATLien

    El DeBarge (born Eldra Patrick DeBarge), former lead singer of the family singing group DeBarge who had mild success as a solo act, was sentenced Wednesday (October 28th)?to serve 2 years on a cocaine possession charge. ?The Los Angeles Judge had little sympathy for the 47 year old former star, who?was still on probation for a 2001 cocaine bust, not to mention a series of warrants over the past year for domestic violence, vandalism and drugs, and gave his the stiffest penalty possible.

    According to the district attorney’s office, DeBarge also has a second case pending, for violating his probation in 2006 with another drug bust. A hearing in that matter is set for November 10th.?DeBarge was picked up by authorities over the weekend on outstanding warrants.

    Too bad…so sad. ?I guess good hair can go wrong as is evident in El’s mugshot photo. ?There is a 2nd undated mugshot under the cut showing El with short hair and a wide-eyed blank stare. ?A look that he’ll also be giving his future husband cell-mate. ?SMH…He’s way to pretty for prison.

    Also peep some flashback footage of his group vs. solo career under the cut: Continue Reading…

    Mugshot Mania ~ Lyfe Jennings Arrested in Cobb County

    Oct, 22 2008 | Written by ATLien

    Cobb County got another one! Atlanta transplant Lyfe Jennings aka Chester J. Jennings, 35, was arrested Sunday night in Marietta, Georgia after leading officers on a high speed car chase. Officers, originally responding to reports of gunshots in the area, observed Jennings’?red 2005 Chevy Corvette jetting?the scene and gave chase, which led to him crashing the vehicle.

    At the conclusion of their investigation officers, arrested and charged Mr. Jennings with?Criminal Trespass, Discharging a Firearm Near a Public Highway, DUI-Refusal, all?misdemeanors.? Mr. Jennings was also charged with Attempting to Elude and Possession?of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon, both felonies.

    Mr. Jennings was lodged at the Smyrna City Jail where he was later transferred to the?Cobb County Detention Facility. suspect vehicle leaving the area.? The vehicle was a red 2005 Chevrolet corvette, later?determined to be registered to Chester J. Jennings, of Marietta, GA.

    I’m not clear on whether the crash or the officers caused the scars on Lyfe’s face, but since Jennings is a convicted felon he may NEVER get out of that mutha!?I keep telling y’all transplants not to f*ck around in CC…but you won’t listen!

    **UPDATE** Looks like Baby Momma Drama caused Lyfe’s?disruptive?behavior. ?Jennings, kicked in the door of a residence on Springwoods Drive in Smyrna belonging to his children’s mother, Joy Bounds, according to an arrest warrant. He fired the gun in the street and later tried to run from the Smyrna police when they arrived, police said. ? Jennings is a convicted felon who?served 10 years in prison from 1992-2002 on a felony charge when he was 14.?~ Via AJC

    Mugshot Mania ~ Orenthal James “OJ” Simpson + Chris Rock (Video)

    Oct, 7 2008 | Written by ATLien


    (Photo Source)

    Check out O.J.’s newest mugshot taken just days ago?following his October 2008 conviction on armed robbery and kidnapping charges in a Las Vegas district court. Simpson, 61, was immediately taken into custody at the Clark County Detention Center after the jury verdict was read. Sentencing is scheduled for December 5, 2008 and O.J. is facing a MINIMUM of five years behind bars. ?Karma is a muthaf*$cker!!

    We all have our burdens to bear, but O.J.’s life seems to be a testament to what can happen when you do wrong. ?It’s possible that O.J. could end up spending the rest of his life in a Nevada state prison.?Beating the system is one thing…but how far can you possibly go without fear of retribution?

    I’m not one to speak on the inaccuracies of our justice system because I for one HATE seeing our Black men locked up over BS. ?Hell…I’m still pissed over Michael Vick! ?O.J. dodged a major bullet once and could have very well lived a quiet life of seclusion with his new white woman of choice…but what did he do? ?Went out and acted a fool every chance he got. ?On that note…I’ll cosign with Chris Rock’s assessment of the Simpson murder trial. ?“I’m not sayin it’s right…but I understand!”

        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?
