ATLANTA — Rayshawn Bennett, better known as musical performer YFN Lucci, is among a dozen suspects indicted in a 75-page, 105 count racketeering indictment focused on factions within the Bloods street gang.

“This indictment is unprecedented. Period. In Georgia,” Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis told Channel 2 Investigative reporter Mark Winne in an exclusive interview.

“There’s been a huge spike in violent crime,” Willis said. “I made a commitment to bring the best and the brightest minds here, many of which you see sitting here right now so that we could deal with this issue of this violent crime.”

Joining Willis when she met with Winne were key members of her staff, including recent hire Mike Carlson, one of the state’s most renowned gang law experts, RICO expert John Floyd and lead gang unit prosecutor Cara Convery, as well as top law enforcement officials.

Lucci’s lawyer, Drew Findling, told Winne his client is not guilty of all charges. “He’s not a gang member. What he is is an internationally recognized musical artist that is a triple platinum winner, that has performed all over the United States and all over the world.”

“I think that it sends a significant message, a profound message that regardless of your status that the City of Atlanta and Fulton County in partnership is coming after you if you violate the crimes in our county, in our city,” said Atlanta Police Chief Rodney Bryant.

“Of the national gang, criminal street gang the bloods, there’s at least four subsets involved in this particular indictment and investigation,” said GBI Gang Task Force Special Agent in Charge Ken Howard.

“Some people don’t understand the depth in which the gangs have infiltrated, for lack of a better word, our communities and its time for them to go,” said Fulton County Sheriff Pat Labat.

Bennett is already facing an unrelated murder charge in connection to the shooting death of a man in December.

This is on top of the murder charge.
