From Breitbart: A Georgia Democrat who ran for a seat in Georgia’s State House last year, and previously called for the assassination of President Donald Trump, was arrested in a multi-agency human trafficking operation focused on child sex trafficking, according to a press release from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI).
The “four-day” operation, called “Operation Lights Out,” which ran from April 24 – April 28, 2025, was coordinated by the Georgia Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, the GBI, and the Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office. The operation “took months of planning and involved the collaboration of 12 law enforcement agencies.”
The operation’s goal is to “identify persons who engage in sexually explicit communication with children” online and who “arrange to engage in a sex act with” minors and “travel to meet the child for the purpose of having sex.”
As a result of the operation, 19 people, including Carl Sprayberry, 32, who ran for Georgia’s District 139 in the November 2024 election, were arrested, according to the press release. Sprayberry was charged specifically with Human Trafficking.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigations announced the huge bust in a press release on Wednesday, and listed the names of every individual arrested during the four-day operation. Sprayberry was the last name on the list.
The GBI joined the Muscogee Co SO, the Chattahoochee Judicial Circuit DA, & the Army Criminal Investigative Division to give an update on “Operation Lights Out,” a multi-agency investigation that targeted on-line sexual predators & led to 19 arrests.

Just over two months ago, on February 19, 2025, Sprayberry had written on X, “Bomb Mar-a-Lago.”
His X account has now been suspended.

In another post, also on February 19, Sprayberry had written, “Donald Trump has committed an act of High Treason. Should Congress refuse to take action, he will be killed by the people, as per the Second Amendment’s existence.”
