Gulley busted... again

Note: See this 2008 post about Gulley and his father.

The Clinton Police Department issued the following press release:

Clinton Police Arrest Pro Soccer Player Turned Drug Trafficker

Clinton, Miss. (August 1, 2016) Clinton Police have arrested a former professional soccer player and charged him with multiple counts of possession of illegal narcotics with the intent to distribute while in possession of a firearm.

Gulley
 Kellen Gulley of 111 Cardinal Lane in Clinton and a former player for the Chicago Fire of MLS, is believed to be a significant dealer of marijuana, powder cocaine, and codeine syrup in Clinton and other portions of the metro area. Of interest to CPD narcotics Detectives is Gulley's connections to the youth of central Mississippi.

On July 29, 2016, at approximately 11:00 pm, a CPD Narcotics Detective made a traffic stop on a black Cadillac CTS being driven by Kellen Gulley. When the detective smelled the odor of Marijuana emanating from within Gulley's vehicle, a search ensued.

After being instructed to remain at the rear of his vehicle, Gulley attempted to approach the detective during the search of the vehicle and was subsequently arrested for disorderly conduct - disobeying a lawful order.

During an inventory of Gulley's vehicle, the detective recovered various illegal drugs packaged for sales along with weight scales, a semi-automatic handgun, and suspected drug money.          

Based on prior encounters and the evidence found to be in Gulley's possession, the detective obtained a search warrant for Gulley's residence at 111 Cardinal Lane in Clinton, Mississippi. The search of Gulley's residence yielded additional illegal drugs, paraphernalia, and suspected drug money concealed in a bedroom.

Gulley is facing new charges; felony possession of a schedule II controlled substance with intent to distribute while in possession of a firearm, felony possession of Marijuana with intent to distribute while in possession of a firearm, misdemeanor possession of a schedule V controlled substance, possession of paraphernalia, disorderly conduct-disobeying a lawful order, and careless driving. Bond was set at $25,000 on the felony charges and $1,700 on the misdemeanor charges. Gulley made bond Sunday, July 31.

Kellen Gulley is no stranger to the Clinton Police Department's Narcotics unit. Gulley was currently out on bond from the county jail on charges related to aggravated assault, shooting into an occupied dwelling, felony possession of a Marijuana with the intent to distribute while in possession of a firearm, felony possession of a schedule V controlled substance while in possession of a firearm, misdemeanor possession of a schedule II controlled substance, and possession of paraphernalia.

On January 25, 2016, Kellen Gulley was arrested in relation to a shooting incident that occurred at his residence located at 111 Cardinal Lane in Clinton, Mississippi. The January shooting stemmed from a "drug deal gone bad" where Gulley was believed to have opened fire, hitting a subject who was attempting to rob Gulley for illegal drugs. The January search of Gulley's residence yielded large amounts of various illegal drugs, a semi-automatic assault rifle, a semi-automatic handgun, paraphernalia, and suspected drug money.

The Clinton Police Narcotics Unit is continuing the investigation in an effort to divulge any and all conspirators and/or users who had been buying illegal drugs from Gulley. Clinton Police are taking a zero tolerance approach to illegal drug use in our city.

Time to legalize it already. Otherwise you are just letting criminal elements like this run the market and terrorize communities.

Why was this creature not held on no bond? What judge granted this ridiculously low bond? Is Ivon involved?

Anonymous said...

That's right. If we would just legalize weed all the drug related crime problems will magically go away.

Arrest the dad....you know the one that got suspended from attending soccer games for rushing the field and chest bumping a ref? This has been brewing a long time.

@3:09. Hell of a good idea. Let's legalize everything - then we won't need jails. It would completely eliminate criminal elements like this because nothing would be criminal.

Only thing is - they would still terrorize communities.

This is very sad, an example of a kid with so much promise who somehow went off the rails, and has now decided that being a low level drug dealer is the only way to make a buck to pay for a $50,000 car.

@3:26 You are more correct than you probably realize or intended. See history of alcohol prohibition...

PittPanther said...

This idiot commits a dozen new crimes while on bail for previous crimes, including shooting at someone. And gets another low bail.

And you guys say Jackson is the problem?

@5:11 You are more myopic than you probably realize and/or have the ability to fathom.

Justice system is the #1 problem. Not the only problem, but #1.

Colorado did it and it's actually working rather well. Who is myopic now? We don't have to guess at the results any longer.

8:37 - Are you unaware of Colorado's escalation in the incidence of traffic accidents and crime in the wake of MJ legalization?

Attn 6:27 I am unaware of the escalation of accidents in Colorado after weed approval. Please elaborate and provide a means of verification of your statement.

People are only aware of what they want to see in the Colorado mess. Neither side looks at the whole picture. Much like anything else. If they do not admit knowing it they think other people should do the same.

You say it's a mess, which is absurd. Go to Colorado and see for yourself. It's a perfectly happy place, welcoming of the booming new industry. Even the governor agrees. And there is no sign of the Apocalypse out there, feels quite safe and normal in fact. Since we've tried the drug war for years with nothing good to show, this approach makes much more sense for the overall good. And it's working.

@10:43 the majority of Colorado outside of the urban areas like Denver and most of the resort towns despise the legislation and what all it has brought in. The liberal media doesn't report on that side so it will paint a prettier picture, but the most everyone outside of isolated areas full of pot heads hate it. This is coming from someone who is real familiar with Colorado.

Anonymous said...

A perfectly happy place, only if a person thinks increased crime, more children harmed, increased number of car accidents, makes for a happy place. I can understand it from a druggies view just not from the view of a person who does not need a crutch to handle life.

Anyone have a link to pictures of the PARENTS? I'm curious...

I suspect all these old farts who support prohibition really just have a dislike of hippies/alt-culture more so than real concern about kids and traffic.... all while not giving two shits about deadly alcohol.

Anonymous said...

2:59, Maybe all of the old farts just have a thing about obeying the laws. Is that something the drug culture has ever given a thought about?

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
