All alleged members of a Macon drug ring were arrested after Bibb County deputies sought help from the public this week, according to a Bibb County Sheriff’s Office news release Thursday.
Thirteen people, indicted on April 14, are allegedly connected to a Macon criminal street gang accused of distributing drugs in Georgia prisons. Deputies requested the public’s help Monday finding some of the defendants so they could be arrested. All 13 are now behind bars, according to the news release.
Keith Beddingfield Jr., one of the indicted, allegedly ran the organization from April 2018 through January. A 15-year-old was also indicted in connection with the incident.
The others who allegedly participated in the gang are:
- Donnie White, 22
- Corey Wallace, 26
- Terrell Mills, 43
- Shaun Mills, 41
- Adredrequa Kendall, 28
- Oriental Wilson, 29
- Andre Diadell, 32
- Carlos Sledge, 54
- Melissa Braxton, 54
- Tishon Wiley, 32
- Alexandria Kendall, 28
Beddingfield, White, Wallace, Terrell Mills and Shaun Mills were already serving prison time. The 15-year-old is at the Regional Youth Detention Center.
Adredrequa Kendall, Wilson and Wiley turned themselves in to the Bibb County Jail.
Deputies recently arrested Diadell, Sledge, Braxton and Alexandria Kendall.
Operation ‘Macon Gotti’
An operation called “Macon Gotti” was a collaboration between the Bibb County Sheriff’s Office Violent Crime, Intelligence, Gang and Drug Units, which worked alongside the U.S. Marshals Service Southeast Regional Task Force, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s Gang Task Force and the Bibb County District Attorney’s Office.
Law enforcement was looking into a drug distribution organization that reportedly delivered drugs to prisons. Keith Beddingfield Jr. allegedly ran the organization from April 2018 through January.
The name of the operation is taken from “Gotti,” a nickname Beddingfield used throughout the alleged operation. It alludes to John Gotti, “the infamous convicted murderer and leader of New York City’s Gambino crime family,” the indictment said.
It was created to allegedly receive “financial benefits through the enterprise through various forms of racketeering activity, including, but not limited to, robberies, attempted murders, murders and the illegal distribution of contraband within the prison(s) where Defendant Beddingfield was housed,” the indictment states.
