Accused Stalker of Memphis Mayor Issued $2 Million Bond

  • On June 24, a judge raised Trenton Abston’s bond to $2 million amid charges including attempted kidnapping and stalking linked to Memphis Mayor Paul Young.
  • Abston climbed a 10-foot fence into the gated neighborhood and approached Mayor Young's home after driving by multiple times to confirm his residence.
  • Authorities discovered a taser along with gloves, rope, and duct tape inside Abston's vehicle, and the judge mentioned that he had a list containing the names of elected officials and their family members.
  • Abston told police he was upset with the mayor and wanted to discuss crime in Memphis, while his uncle said he 'just wants to talk to him' and is remorseful.
  • The bond increase reflects the judge's view that Abston poses a community safety threat, and he faces 3 to 30 years in prison if convicted on all charges.
