Who is Attorney Adrian Patrick?



Adrian L. Patrick is a seasoned criminal defense attorney based in Georgia, with over 25 years of experience representing clients in serious criminal matters at both state and federal levels. His practice, the Law Offices of Adrian L. Patrick, Snellville, is located in Snellville, Georgia, where he offers legal services across a wide range of criminal defense areas, including violent felonies, federal crimes, and motor vehicle offenses.

In the early 2000s, Patrick served as the defense attorney for Malachi Z. York, leader of the United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors, during York's federal trial on charges of child molestation and racketeering. Despite Patrick's defense efforts, York was convicted in January 2004 on multiple counts related to child molestation and racketeering.  Following the conviction, Patrick was initially dismissed but was later rehired to handle York's appeal. 

Throughout the trial, Patrick maintained that the government's actions were an attempt to indict the organization rather than focusing solely on York as an individual.  He also contended that the federal government lacked jurisdiction in the case and advocated for York's release from federal penitentiary.

Patrick's extensive legal experience and commitment to his clients have established him as a dedicated advocate in the field of criminal defense.

THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT LACKED JURISDICTION IN THE CASE

Attorney Adrian Patrick argued that the federal government lacked jurisdiction in Dr. Malachi Z. York’s case based on several legal and constitutional grounds. Here are some of the key points often raised by York's defense team:

  1. State vs. Federal Jurisdiction – Patrick and the defense contended that the allegations against York, primarily related to child molestation and other crimes, should have been handled at the state level rather than by federal authorities. Typically, child molestation cases fall under state jurisdiction unless there is a specific federal statute that applies.

  2. Lack of Federal Nexus – The defense argued that the federal government failed to establish a direct connection between the alleged crimes and federal law. In order for federal charges to apply, the prosecution needed to prove an interstate or federal element, such as crossing state lines or using federal facilities.

  3. Unlawful Federal Prosecution Tactics – The defense also suggested that the case was politically motivated and that the federal government unfairly stepped in to prosecute York when it should have remained a state matter. They claimed that the federal charges were a way to target the Nuwaubian Nation rather than York as an individual.

  4. Questionable Venue and Due Process Issues – Some arguments suggested that York’s case was improperly moved to federal court and that the venue selected was unfavorable to him, potentially violating his right to a fair trial.

  5. Double Jeopardy Concerns – There were also claims that York was initially facing state charges in Georgia, which were later dropped in favor of federal charges. The defense viewed this as a possible violation of double jeopardy protections, though the government argued that dual sovereignty allowed both state and federal prosecutions.
