Original post:

Source: Scott Legato / Getty The families of R. Kelly ‘s alleged accusers are concerned that the criminal investigation in Georgia into the explosive allegations put forth by the Lifetime docu-series Surviving R. Kelly will inspire the singer to flee the country. The family hopes that a charge will be levied against Kelly to keep him from leaving the United States with some of his alleged “sex cult” victims. The Blast reports : Sources connected to the alleged victims of R. Kelly tell The Blast there is a rumor circulating that the singer is preparing to leave the United States, and we are told Africa has been mentioned as one of the places he may seek solace. We’re told families of the women in his alleged sex cult are worried if the girls travel out of the country with Kelly they may lose all hope of reconnecting. Our sources are hoping officials stop the singer ASAP, including charging him with a crime to possibly freeze his passport and keep him in the United States. The Blast broke the story, the Fulton County District Attorney began investigating Kelly after the multitude of allegations made in the Lifetime docu-series, “Surviving R. Kelly.” We’re told the Chief Investigator has been in contact with the family of Joycelyn Savage, who has not spoken with her family in years. We’re told investigators have also made contact with R. Kelly’s camp. As it stands, Kelly has yet to speak to the allegations since the documentary has aired. — Photo: Getty

Locked & Hip-Hop: Tommie Lee Still Sitting Her *Alleged* Daughter-Stalkin’ Azz In Jail Despite Release Date

Source: Leon Bennett / Getty Tommie Lee Rearrested On Jail Release Day Love & Hip-Hop’s Tommie Lee spent her Thanksgiving behind bars after believing that she’d be free on November 7 according to TMZ. Tommie Lee was rearrested the same day she was to be released due to a violation of her DUI probation. Remember when we reported that Tommie was *allegedly* stalking her own daughter and slamming her into a locker at her middle school? Yeah. The law doesn’t allow Tommie to do that. Tommie has been a prisoner in Fulton County jail in Atlanta for 28 days now. Word is that she will get another chance at freedom sometime this month. Even when she gets out, we find it hard to believe that Tommie won’t return to her cell and baggy jumpsuit at some point in the near future. It’s just her thing.

Marta Coming To Gwinnett And Fulton County…Kinda

See the original post here:

Source: Raymond Boyd / Getty Fulton and Gwinnett counties may see MARTA really soon..buses that is.  According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution ,  MARTA is gaining new momentum across the the region as local government prepare for expansion plans. Though bringing MARTA to these counties can be extremely beneficial to it’s residents, the words “MARTA” and “Transit mean different things to different people.  If you are a  Gwinnett County resident that is wishing for MARTA rail service transit, chances are you’ll be waiting forever. Quit frankly, county officials feel like rail services aren’t worth the hassle. Residents have shown more interest in the bus system which is the more affordable option.  County officials aren’t interested in proposing MARTA because it has been rejected twice by voters. Gwinnett county is the second largest county in Georgia, and most people feel like the county is ready for mass transit. Former chairman candidate and founder of Gwinnett Needs Mass Transit, Jack Snyder says , “We have citizens who need this mass transit to commute to work going down to Atlanta. We also have businesses that are desiring of having individuals capable of arriving to their places of work by using mass transit.” Gwinnett is nearly  900,000 people and these people are not the same people that once rejected the bringing MARTA to Gwinnett in 1990. MARTA COO  Richard Krisak states,   “ “The millennial, the young folks, like my kids, they don’t really want to have a car. We’re seeing more and more with that population segment, takes transit as a choice, not as a necessity.” I don’t know about not having, but I know that having MARTA as an option when it comes to commuting to Atlanta, most millennials would agree with his statement. “I think it’s an uphill battle,” Chairwoman Charlotte Nash told the  Atlanta Journal Constitution  this week. “It’s about feeling like they don’t have control about how their money is spent (with MARTA),” she said County Commissioner John Heard expressed a similar sentiment. “I believe that if we put it on the ballot, a local transit SPLOST will pass – for Gwinnett County only,” Heard said. “Nobody wants to send our money down to the City of Atlanta.”  Georgia lawmakers are looking at transit “Governance and funding ” . Some lawmakers would like to consolidate metro Atlanta ‘s  many transit agencies, which include MARTA, the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority, Gwinnett County Transit and CobbLinc. A two hour commute from Snellville (gwinnett county ) to Atlanta or the MARTA system?  MARTA please. Words by Ericc Adkins

No Shame: Two Wayward Women Robbed Shawty Lo After His Fatal Car Crash

SMFH!!! Shawty Lo Was Robbed After His Car Crash After leaving Atlanta’s Blue Flame nightclub and getting into a fatal car wreck, Shawty Lo was found with drugs in his car and his body allegedly reeked of alcohol. According to   TMZ , the rapper died from blunt force trauma after he was ejected from his car. Officers then found a prescription bottle filled with Percocet and Vicodin on the scene. The rapper’s autopsy report reveals Shawty suffered the blunt force injuries to the head when he was ejected from his vehicle in a car crash last month. The Fulton County Medical Examiner also found a prescription bottle on him labeled “Promethazine” … which was actually filled with Percocet and Vicodin. The medical examiner goes on to say Shawty’s body bag emitted a strong smell of alcohol when opened … but the official toxicology results are not in yet. In addition to the drugs allegedly found, after L-O passed away two women who were with him in the car returned to the wreckage and took money out of his pockets. W—T—F?!?!?! Here’s another doozy … the medical examiner says 2 females were in the car with Shawty at the time of the crash, and asked cops on scene if they could take a bunch of cash out of his pockets. The cops allegedly let ’em do it … leaving behind around $16. Wait, what???  The police let random women dig in Shawty Lo’s pockets?! One of L-O’s eleven children has since commented on the story. @1SlimBrat who previously blasted fans for taking pictures of her father’s body , wants people to mind their business and she’s adamant that her family will get justice. “All these folks all up in my family business,” said Brat.”I know my daddy didn’t lose control of no car, my daddy can drive real good.” What do YOU think about this latest Shawty Lo update???
