Officer’s Narrative:
[Please note: The following is a direct transcription from the officer’s narrative report. We do not fix any spelling or grammatical errors. Any changes made by our staff are placed inside brackets. Some errors may exist.]

In the month of February 2022, I, Investigator Ken Culverson, S91, of the Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office Drug, Gang, and Fugitive Task Force, met with a Confidential Informant (CI) whom stated that they could purchase a quantity of Crack Cocaine from a person they know as “Yay”, A.K.A. Lacoya Marshall. The Confidential-Informant was then shown a non-descriptive photograph of Lacoya Marshall, at which time, the Confidential Informant immediately and without hesitation identified “Yay” as Lacoya Marshall in the photograph. The Confidential Informant stated they purchased the Crack Cocaine from Lacoya Marshall at [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Muscogee County, Georgia. The Confidential Informant then physically pointed out the residence of [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia to lavestigators of the Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office Drug, Gang, and Fugitive Task Force.

Again, In the month of February 2022, I met with a Confidential Informant in reference to conducting a controlled purchase of Crack Cocaine from Lacoya Marshall inside the residence of [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia. Prior to the controlled purchase the Confidential Informant was searched and found to be free of any illegal weapons or contraband. The Confidential Informant was then outfitted with an electronic monitoring device and provided previously recorded Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office Drug, Gang, and Fugitive Task Force Funds. The Confidential Informant was then driven to the residence of [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia by an undercover law enforcement officer in an unmarked law enforcement vehicle.

As the Confidential Informant arrived at the residence they proceeded to the front door of the residence and knocked on the door. Lacoya Marshall then allowed the Confidential Informant to enter the residence. While inside the residence, the Confidential Informant exchanged the previously recorded Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office Drug, Gang, and Fugitive Task Force Funds with Lacoya Marshall for a quantity of Crack Cocaine. The Confidential Informant then left the residence and returned to the unmarked law enforcement vehicle, at which time, they were transported back to a pre-determined location.

Upon returning to the pre-determined location the Confidential Informant turned over the Crack Cocaine purchased to Investigator Ken Culverson. The Crack Cocaine was logged into Property and Evidence at the Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office by Investigator Ken Culverson. The entire controlled purchase was monitored, directed, and controlled by the Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office Drug, Gang, and Fugitive Task Force.

Lastly, In the month of March 2022, I again met with a Confidential Informant in reference to conducting a controlled purchase of Crack Cocaine from Lacoya Marshall inside the residence of [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia. Prior to the controlled purchase the Confidential Informant was searched and found to be free of any illegal weapons or contraband. The Confidential Informant was then outfitted with an electronic monitoring device and provided previously recorded Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office Drug, Gang, and Fugitive Task Force Funds. The Confidential Informant then drove themselves to the residence of [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia.

As the Confidential Informant arrived at the residence they proceeded to the front door of the residence and knocked on the door. Lacoya Marshall then allowed the Confidential Informant to enter the residence. While inside the residence, the Confidential Informant exchanged the previously recorded Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office Drug, Gang, and Fugitive Task Force Funds with Lacoya Marshall for a quantity of Crack Cocaine. The Confidential Informant then left the residence and returned to their vehicle, at which time, they transported themselves back to a pre-determined location.

On Tuesday, April 26, 2022 a Confidential and Reliable Informant contacted Investigator Ken Culverson stating that Lacoya “Yay” Marshall was currently at the “trap house” on Coolidge Avenue ([800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia). Based on the Confidential and Reliable Informants information a search warrant for the residence of [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia to search for the body of Lacoya “Yay” Marshall was drafted by Investigator Ken Culverson. Investigator Ken Culverson presented the search warrant to the Honorable Superior Court Judge Gil McBride who both heard and read testimonial evidence to believe that Lacoya Marshall was inside the residence of [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia. Upon both hearing and reading that probable cause existed the Honorable Superior Court Judge Gil McBride signed a search warrant for the residence of [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia to search for the body of Lacoya Marshall.

EXECUTION OF SEARCH WARRANT:

On Tuesday, April 26, 2022 at 1529 hours, the Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office Drug, Gang, and Fugitive Task Force executed the search warrant at [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia. The Officers and their duties are listed below:

Upon arriving at the residence, members of the Muscogee County Sheriffs Office Drug, Gang, and Fugitive Task Force exited unmarked law enforcement vehicles and approached the front door of the residence. While approaching the front door of the residence Investigators encountered Travis Tatum outside the residence. Upon the sight of police Travis Tatum began fleeing on foot. A brief time later Travis Tatum was taken into custody by Law Enforcement. Victoria Kendrick was then located on the front porch of the residence and was also briefly detained. Upon safely securing the individuals outside, Investigators approached the front door of the residence.

Investigators loudly knocked and announced “Sheriff’s Office Search Warrant” several times prior to opening the front door of the residence. Upon opening the front door of the residence Investigators located Kievonte Walker, Quintavious Harrow, Kean Pass, Thaddius Tolbert, and Csqourey Garner all inside the residence. While briefly detaining Walker, Harrow, Pass, Tolbert, and Garner Investigators located several illegal items in plain view in the living room of the residence (large quantity of Crack Cocaine, Marijuana, Firearms, etc.). Upon the residence being deemed “safe” and Lacoya Marshall not being located, Investigators exited the residence and secured the residence until a search warrant for the illegal items could be completed and signed.

Investigator Ken Culverson proceeded back to the Muscogee County Sheriffs Office and drafted a search warrant for the residence of [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia due to the illegal items located in plain view. After drafting the search warrant, Investigator Ken Culverson again presented a search warrant to the Honorable Superior Court Judge Gil McBride, who both heard and read testimonial evidence that a quantity of Crack Cocaine existed inside the residence of [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia. After reviewing the search warrant the Honorable Superior Court Judge Gil McBride signed the search warrant for [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia.

A search of the residence, [800 BLOCK] Coolidge Avenue Columbus, Georgia, was then conducted by the Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office Drug, Gang, and Fugitive Task Force.
