Kendra Bailey was arrested on Oct. 4.
A former Fulton County (GA) Deputy was arrested on charges of taking bribes from the mother of a YSL co-defendant.
Kendra Bailey served as a sheriff’s deputy and detention officer. However, the 31-year-old was immediately fired after accusations surfaced of her taking bribes to give jail inmates prohibited items, such as drugs. One of these inmates included Marquavious “Qua” Huey, a defendant in the already controversial trial against rapper Young Thug.
Young Thug, whose real name is Jeffery Lamar Williams, was arrested in May 2022 for racketeering, otherwise known as RICO, charges as leader of the alleged YSL (Young Slime Life) gang. Huey is one of the six defendants, alongside Williams, standing trial.
Police arrested Bailey on Oct. 4 on charges, including four counts of violation of oath and two counts of bribery. An additional two counts are for obtaining/procuring/giving inmates prohibited items without authorization.
According to her arrest report, Bailey received $500 through Apple Pay from Huey’s mother, Malissa, in May.
