Update [October 16]:

A man accused of breaking into a car and stealing hard drives containing unreleased Beyoncé music was indicted by a grand jury in Fulton County, Georgia, this week.

Kelvin Evans faces charges of criminal trespass and entering a vehicle with intent to commit theft, according to the Oct. 13 indictment.

The indictment states that Evans allegedly entered a 2024 Jeep Wagoneer, the rental property of Christopher Grant, a choreographer for Beyoncé, on July 8 "with the intent to commit theft."

Evans allegedly broke one of the vehicle's windows in the process, according to the indictment.

Police said they were able to track a laptop and AirPods Max allegedly stolen from the vehicle in the alleged incident by tracing the items' "pinging" and eventually located them.

The report states that units were sent to canvas the area, and a "suspicious person stop" was conducted. Police said they later dusted the items and found "two very light" fingerprints, as well as camera footage from the area where the alleged incident took place.

Police arrested Evans on Aug. 26. He was taken into custody by Hapeville Police Department and booked into the Fulton County Jail, according to the Atlanta Police Department. x

 

___________
[July 14] Beyoncé’s choreographer and one of her dancers said thieves broke into their SUV and stole numerous items, including jump drives containing unreleased music, footage plans for her show and past and future set lists.

It happened less than 48 hours before the Grammy-winning artist kicked off her Cowboy Carter tour performances in Atlanta.

An arrest warrant has been issued for a suspect. A spokesperson for Atlanta police said the break-in happened just after 8 p.m. July 8 inside a parking deck at Krog Street Market.

Christopher Grant and Diandre Blue told police that they parked their rental black Jeep Wagoneer in the parking deck around 8:09 p.m. They discovered the trunk window had been damaged, and their two suitcases had been stolen when they returned to their SUV, according to an incident report obtained by Seiden.

“Mr. Grant advised he was also carrying some personal sensitive information for the musician Beyoncé,” an officer wrote in the incident report.

“He advised he was her choreographer and Mr. Diandre Blue was a dancer for her and that her hard drives for her upcoming show in Atlanta were stolen also. The hard drives contained water marked music, some un-released music, footage plans for the show and past and future set lists,” the officer added in the police report.

The two members of Beyoncé’s team also reported clothes, designer sunglasses, laptops and a pair of AirPods Max headphones were stolen from the vehicle, police confirmed. source

It's unfortunate but i mean, who the hell leaves highly sensitive stuff like unreleased songs and footage on a SUV? That's asking for problems.

That's why you always see gaga carrying that ipad everywhere

Honestly its super common even in orgs that work with super sensitive information that people get lax with data and do whats easiest for them rather than what is safest. 

I imagine its even worse in the touring industry/music industry. I mean the explosion of leaks of unreleased music in the last decade was a result of people embracing cloud storage but not bothering to learn basic security.

Her team probably learnt their lesson with this, and I doubt she was even aware they were carrying her data so unprotected (i bet that hardrives aren't even encrypted with passwords and that's so easy to do).

Now, maybe some good can come from this if the robber leaks telephone part 2
