From WSB-TV:
A disgraced ex-Atlanta police officer is preparing to spend the next decade in prison after he plead guilty to his role in a 2019 armed robbery involving a rising rapper and another man.
Court records in Cobb County show Justin Mikale Thorne, 26, pleaded guilty to multiple felony charges earlier this month after he admitted he played a role in the armed robbery of Freddie Gladney III, who is also known by his rap name “Bankroll Freddie.”
Thorne’s attorney, Lenny Franco, declined comment, but during a bond hearing for his client in 2019, he told the judge that his client got involved because someone had threatened the ex-cop and his family.
