ALPHARETTA, Ga. — A woman who ran homes for at-risk youth is accused of funneling drug money to buy a multi-million dollar home, a luxury car and more.
Kristen Draper of Alpharetta owns Reflections Group Home, LLC in Dayton, Ohio. Reflections runs three group homes in Dayton with space for 15 children.
Draper reported she earned nearly $1 million from those 15 beds in 2024, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Northern District of Georgia.
An investigation found Draper worked with her boyfriend, Antwaun Brown, to mix in money from his drug deals with income from Reflections to hide the source of the drug money, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

What amazes me is the lack of investigation while the drug trafficking was going on. A woman running a charity for at-risk youth was driving around in a Lamborghini. Didn’t anyone think that should raise a red flag? Didn’t anyone think that was worthy of investigation? Nah, wait until she gets caught red-handed with Fentanyl before the investigation starts.
It’s all a matter of how one defines “help”.
How generous of the taxpayers to provide Antwuan Brown with youthful criminals for his drug distribution business, and even pay for their room and board. The question is, did Draper and Brown get into the halfway house business first then go into drug trafficking to teach the kids a trade; or, did they need drug mules, and created the housing venture as a staffing solution?
