The indictment announced Monday says singer Mariah Carey, Marlo Hampton of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” Atlanta United player Brad Guzan and other victims all had their Atlanta-area homes broken into. The 220-count indictment was filed Aug. 22. It charges 26 people, most accused of violating Georgia’s anti-gang and racketeering laws.
