Nick Mackey

Nikita V. Mackey is an American former police officer, lawyer, and politician who served as a Democratic member of the North Carolina House of Representatives, representing the 99th district.

In 2010, the North Carolina State Bar revoked Mackey's law license for up to three years because he did not disclose on his 2002 license application his failure to pay income taxes, and further failed to disclose his alleged misconduct when employed by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.

[1][4] The day after his law license was suspended, Mackey lost his bid for re-election; he was defeated in the primary election by Rodney Moore, who later won the 99th district seat.

[5] In 2016, one of Mackey's law clients was released from prison after serving 10 years of a 30-year sentence for conspiracy and racketeering.

[6] Mackey was disbarred in February 2022 after pleading guilty in 2020 to multiple charges stemming from two incidents in which he fired gunshots into buildings owned by his wife or her relatives.
