A federal case in Georgia indicts 20 defendants linked to the GoodFellas gang over gun trafficking, drug trafficking, and theft of interstate shipments stemming from a massive gun theft at shipping facilities in Conley and Macon.

The 20 defendants, all listed as from Atlanta, face charges including conspiracy to traffic firearms, firearms trafficking, conspiracy to distribute controlled substances, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and theft of interstate shipments, with five arrested recently and several others in local custody awaiting federal court appearances; two fugitives remain at large.

Authorities say the thefts involved nearly 1,500 firearms from Conley and Macon facilities between late 2025 and early 2026, including hundreds of Glock pistols, and the scheme extended across multiple break-ins.

During the investigation, investigators seized large quantities of illegal drugs and a pill press during searches tied to the case.

The operation is described as violent and tied to threats used to protect illicit activities, with cooperation from ATF, FBI, Atlanta police, and other agencies.

Stolen firearms were sold to undercover ATF agents, illustrating how gun trafficking operated across different sites and times, with GoodFellas members and others involved.

Several gun sales to undercover ATF agents were conducted by members of the GoodFellas street gang and associates.

Federal officials described the investigation as a major gun trafficking case with gang ties and firearms pipelines that extend beyond Georgia, with additional prosecutions anticipated.

The thefts totaled about 1,486 firearms from Conley and Macon shipping facilities in late 2025, with 724 Glock pistols stolen in Conley and 469 firearms stolen in Macon, plus 293 more later in Macon.

The GoodFellas gang is described as recruiting in neighborhoods, jails, and prisons across Georgia and profiting from drug trafficking, robbery, carjacking, fraud, and firearms trafficking.

Drug seizures tied to the case include about 24 kilograms of meth, 22 kilograms of marijuana, 40 grams of cocaine base, 27 grams of fentanyl, and a pill press recovered across 12 Atlanta-area locations in May 2026.

Two fugitives, Samuel Harris and Demontra Williams, remained at large at the time of the indictments, while other defendants were arrested or held in custody.
