new tonight at 6:00 the Fairburn man
exposed by the Fox 5 i-team for selling
marijuana laced snacks to high school
students why the chance to get out of
jail on bond a judge set bond at $30,000
for a die a simmons charged with five
felony drug counts in connection to an
operation he ran called trill trees Fox
by i-team reporter Randy Travis is here
with a list of which schools authorities
say Simmons targeted yeah dude run Tom
yeah prosecutors say the list comes from
Simmons own Ledger's meticulously
detailing who he sold to and how much
money he made manufacturing and
marketing edibles to minors on behalf of
a day a died eight Simmons marked his
20th birthday while inside the douglas
county jail held since early December
without bond after authorities caught up
to him in a very public way those Hill
Police teamed up with Fulton County
police to arrest Simmons a Fairburn man
who openly bragged on his Instagram page
that he had friends and local high
schools selling his illegal products for
him he called his operation trill treats
with 4100 followers police used a
helicopter to see whether they could
identify other dealers Simmons might
have visited on his way to the
undercover Buy
they also executed a search warrant at
Simmons home inside the defendants
residence where he lived with his mother
and father they located over a dozen
crock pots which were strewn throughout
the garage and the living room in those
crock pots were large amounts of
marijuana the police operation came
after the Fox 5 i-team conducted our own
hidden-camera investigation buying a
dozen treats from Simmons in the
shopping center parking lot oh you like
you know the colleges and everything
right
parents of summer simmons customers
complained their high school kids got
sick one even hospitalized it's
definitely a lot of kids that that sell
it for him for him in fact prosecutors
said comments on the troll treats
Instagram page made it clear one of the
school-aged high school children told
him they were running out of the Edible
was to sell by second period
when the brownies tested positive for
THC the active ingredient in marijuana
that amounts three times the approved
level in pot friendly States the lab we
used turned over the evidence to
douglasville police to police undercover
buys later Simmons was under arrest
authorities say they also recovered
Ledger's at Simmons house where he
carefully detailed how his business was
going according to his numbers he was
clearing $5,000 a month prosecutor David
Ahmadi said those Ledger's also listed
the high schools that Simmons targeted
at Langston Hughes Westlake banker North
springs Creekside and Douglas County
High School just down the road on campus
history
Simmons attorney Tawana Morgan stressed
to the court how many people showed up
to support her client an official
GoFundMe page for Simmons legal fees
called him a young man with dreams of
starting his multifaceted business
empire with the main focus of creating
jobs and opportunities for his friends
see a guy for a young man youthful
indiscretion may have made a mistake
however that does not indicate that he
is not a good candidate for mine now
again judge Cynthia Adams set bond at
thirty thousand dollars even if Simmons
makes bond in Douglas County though he
still faces three felonies in Fulton
County where he lives and where police
say the drug operation was based so he's
got to make bond in Fulton County as
well before he can actually go home so
he was living with his parents at the
time the question now to his parents
face any type of criminal action well
the DA's office in Fulton County only
telling me that the case is still open
and under investigation so I really
can't answer that question his dad was
in the courtroom I understand his mother
was not today all right Randi thanks
