Crittenton was picked up Mon night in LA airport trying to board plane back to Atlanta. His lawyer says he is not guilty and was going to turn himself in. Seems like he has a smart lawyer. Good luck. But if he did do the killing, he destroyed his life.
...(Crittenton) was arrested Monday in Southern California to face a murder charge in a deadly Atlanta shooting.Crittenton was taken into custody at about 8 p.m. at John Wayne Airport in Orange County after checking in for a Delta Air Lines flight to Atlanta, FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said.
Eimiller said he was arrested without incident by FBI agents with assistance from the Orange County Sheriff's Department.
Authorities were trying to determine whether Crittenton will make an initial appearance in federal court, or be taken directly to Atlanta to face state charges there.
"He offered to turn himself in," lawyer Brian Steel told The Associated Press earlier Monday. "He's not guilty. We look forward to getting it to the courts."
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution first reported that Crittenton planned to surrender in Atlanta.
Police earlier obtained a murder warrant for Crittenton in the Aug. 19 shooting of 22-year-old Jullian Jones, a mother of four young children. Police say Jones was walking with two men when she was shot and they believe one of the men with her was the target.
Police spokesman Carlos Campos on Friday said the motive appears to be retaliation for a robbery in April, in which Crittenton was a victim.
When asked about Steel's statement that Crittenton planned to surrender, Atlanta police didn't confirm it.

The difference between fiction and reality? Fiction has to make sense.
