Deputies: suspects caught with stolen items in car

A Fayetteville resident helped sheriff’s deputies solve his burglary almost right on the spot Thursday afternoon, police said.

The deputy was taking information about the incident when the resident noticed a vehicle looking like the suspects’ auto drove by on Ga. Highway 54, said Lt. Tommy Pope of the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department.

The deputy pursued the vehicle, made a traffic stop and found items tying them to the burglary and another burglary they had just committed barely across the Fayette County line in Clayton County’s Rivers Edge subdivision, Pope said.

The three occupants of the car, all with addresses in Clayton County, were Dariana Destiny Johnson, 17, of Kimberwood Drive, Hampton, Akeem Jamal Cayo, 18, of Ethan Moore Road, Jonesboro and a 16-year-old juvenile of Jonesboro.

Each faces charges of burglary, criminal attempt to commit burglary and theft by receiving stolen property.

It seems that reports such as this and ARMED ROBBERY are getting to be a daily or at least weekly occurance.
I think Randall should paint "Welcome to Fayette County" or Fayette County Welcome wagon" on all the cars, or if this is not allowed post a sign on all our county lines , and park 2 or more cars on each major road entering/leaving the county. These cars could respond to calls from these locations and would serve as a reminder to those coming this way to commit crime that this is not the place to do it.

because he can read between the lines?

Go back and look at the names, then tell me how many non-blacks choose such names.

Do you mean 'they are black’ or 3 blacks? Hmmmm I don't know if you're a racist - but I wish you could be clearer so that we could understand your point. Quite frankly - I think citizens of Fayette County should continue to assist law enforcement - regardless of the color of the criminals’ skin or the 'ethnicity' of their name. When reading the arrest report in the local papers - I think the criminals in this county are quite 'diversified'.

Take back Fayette, you do indeed sound suspiciously like a (OMG, dare I say it?) racist. Have you been taking lessons from the "Reverend's" Jackson and Sharpton? If not, you should since they appear to have racism down to a fine art. There may be an opportunity to speak with Jesse soon! We are expecting him to come to Fayette any time to apologize for calling the people of Fayette racists during the incident where the homeowner and her realtor were trying to burn a north Fayette home after spray painting racist graffiti on the walls. Being the man of integrity we all know he is, we expect his arrival at any moment. Fortunately though Take Back, society no longer executes the bearer of unwelcome news. You're safe for now!

Take back Fayette, you're discrediting yourself by making reckless statements like that. Unless you know that as a fact, please quit making accusations!

Take back, you know you are a racist! These names are perfectly common to everyone.
I actually prefer them to Percy, Bloodworth, Pus, Lipshipz, and George.

Put the bottle down and step away from the bong and nobody will get hurt.

Git, I have done many things in my life but bonging is not one of them. I take medicine ("yeh, right"---I'll say it for you) that prevents the bottles you mention also.
You may however refer to my insistence on commom sense and independent thought about stupid things in your criticism.
Just think what a magnificant thing it is to look at a problem from a standpoint of reason instead of from a dogma, ill perceived.
