You can’t be serious … Atlanta Area Police Officer Arrested For Selling Drugs From His Patrol Car You sir, are a moron of the highest caliber. Via AJC A Newton County Sheriff’s deputy was arrested Thursday by federal police on accusations he sold Mary Jane, often from his marked county patrol car. Darrell Mathis, 40, was charged with distributing Mary Jane and carrying a firearm in the furtherance of a drug trafficking offense, authorities said. “This is an embarrassment to the Newton County Sheriff’s Office, as well as law enforcement in general,” Newton County Sheriff Ezell Brown said in a statement Friday. U.S. Attorney Sally Quillian Yates said the case was a reminder that no one is above the law. “This defendant used his position as a police officer to openly violate the very laws that he was sworn to uphold,” Yates said. “Selling Mary Jane out of his police car while wearing a badge and uniform is outrageous.” “Outrageous” is one way to put it, we were thinkin’ more like “Effing stupid”, but ok. According to the federal criminal complaint, the FBI learned in April that Mathis kept large amounts of the illicit drug out in the open at his Lithonia apartment and even bragged that he sold Mary Jane and didn’t worry because he “drives safely and flashes his police credentials to get out of tickets if he is stopped.” He also admitted to selling between 10 and 15 pounds of Mary Jane a week, according to the federal criminal complaint. Between May and September, federal authorities said Mathis sold Mary Jane to a confidential source working for the FBI and to an undercover FBI agent. On August 8, FBI officials said Mathis sold a pound of Mary Jane to an undercover agent, then went with the agent to discuss selling more drugs to another undercover agent whom he believed was a drug dealer, according to the federal criminal complaint. He took his deputy badge and gun to the meeting, and showed them to the undercover agents, saying, “Don’t worry, I’m on your side,” according to the criminal complaint. If they find former-Officer Mathis guilty on all counts, he’s facing life in prison, and he definitely deserves it. Image via Shutterstock

T.I.’s Arrest Companion Indentified As Convicted Felon

Tip may have further violated probation by driving with Cortez ‘C-Rod’ Thomas, who was also in on rapper’s 2007 attempt to purchase illegal firearms. By Jayson Rodriguez T.I. Photo: Brad Barket/Getty Images T.I. might be in more trouble with the law than originally believed. According to reports, T.I. was accompanied by a convicted felon when he was pulled over and arrested in Los Angeles on September 1. It’s a strict no-no for convicted felons — Tip is also a felon — to associate with each other. Now, documents uncovered by TheSmokingGun.com reveal that the felon was reportedly Cortez “C-Rod” Thomas, the man who allegedly helped facilitate T.I.’s attempted illegal firearm purchase in October 2007, which led to the Atlanta MC’s most recent prison stint and subsequent probation. Thomas, according to records, allegedly assisted T.I. (born Clifford Harris) by transferring a wealth of cash to the rapper’s bodyguard. The bodyguard was later set up by federal officials and agreed to participate in a sting against the “Takers” star. Thomas was never charged in the incident, but he is named and information regarding his past is included in material related to T.I.’s original case. Thomas’ rap sheet includes drug charges and claims of physical intimidation; earlier this year, he was convicted on felony drugs and weapon charges and received 15 years probation. The new information adds to the case being mounted against T.I. In addition to the controlled substances found in his car — later identified as Ecstasy, marijuana — the rapper may have also had the opiate codeine in his system, according to TMZ . The Atlanta judge who oversaw T.I.’s gun case and structured an experimental plea deal with him has ordered the rapper to appear in court to explain his actions and make a case for why his behavior doesn’t violate the terms of his probation. “We are very disappointed in Mr. Harris’ recent conduct,” United States Attorney Sally Quillian Yates said in an e-mail to MTV News on Friday (September 17). “We will make our sentencing recommendation at the revocation hearing.” A hearing date for T.I. had not been scheduled at press time.
