On Wednesday, law enforcement officials in Atlanta announced the arrest of three radical leftist activists who were posting bail and providing legal services to Antifa terrorists for financial crimes.
According to WBUR, three leaders of the Atlanta Solidarity Fund, Marlon Scott Kautz, 39, Savannah D. Patterson, 30, and Adele MacLean, 42, were arrested on charges of money laundering and charity fraud. The group reported has been aiding "protesters against the city's proposed police and fire training center."
A combined task force of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and Atlanta Police announced that authorities found evidence linking the three to financial crimes and served warrants on Kautz and MacLean at their homes "emblazoned with anti-police graffiti."
The organization's website indicates they are, "supporting arrestees," and providing resources for "protesters experiencing repression." Over forty people were charged with domestic terrorism connected with a mass attack on the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center that followed an officer-involved shooting in January which saw officers return fire against a so-called 'protestor' who shot a Georgia Patrol Trooper.
A number of Antifa attacks carried out in support of #StopCopCity have occurred across the U.S., including in Boston where @WhipKClark’s adult son was arrested for allegedly bloodying an officer. The attacks escalated as revenge for comrades being charged https://t.co/Sg7wyh58AC…

A tweet from that GBI explained, "Agents and officers executed a search warrant and found evidence linking the three suspects to the financial crimes. All three charged will be booked into a local jail and will have a bond hearing scheduled soon," it added, "This case is being jointly prosecuted by the Georgia Attorney General’s Office and the DeKalb County District Attorney’s Office."
In a February statement cited by WBUR, Kautz actually predicted that investigators were building a case against the terrorists under Georgia's RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations) law.
He claimed, "Authorities are hoping that taking extreme and unconstitutional measures against protesters will quell the movement against Cop City, but it’s actually just causing more outrage and determination. We won’t allow intimidation to deter people from participating in social movements. The Atlanta Solidarity Fund stands ready to support anyone who is targeted for protesting."
Governor Brian Kemp (R-GA) told reporters after the arrests that Georgia authorities would "track down every member of a criminal organization, from violent foot soldiers to their uncaring leaders."
He added, "These criminals facilitated and encouraged domestic terrorism with no regard for others, watching as communities faced the destructive consequences of their actions. Here in Georgia, we do not allow that to happen."
Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr assured Georgians, he would "not rest until we have held accountable every person who has funded, organized, or participated in this violence and intimidation."
