Mercedes: No "Black-Box" in car

JJ obtained a copy of a letter sent from Mercedes to JPD concerning the installation of an "event data recorder" in the ill-fated Mercedes sedan driven by Karen Irby. Mercedes attorney Frank Berenz sent a letter on February 24, 2009 to Sgt. Joe Cotton of JPD. Mr. Berenz states:

"the subject Mercedes-Benz vehicle is not equipped an Even Data Recorder or "Black-Box" that would be of assistance to the JPD in reconstructing the accident. Unlike certain other manufacturer's vehicles, the subject Mercedes-Benz does not record the speed of the vehicle at or about the time of impact nor does it store information regarding braking input at the time of impact..."

This case should have gone to trial. NOTE.. I did not say she was innocent. I don't think the DA could prove she was guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

Should have gone to trial...

Thanks for posting the MB letter K.F.

"I don't think the DA could prove she was guilty beyond a reasonable doubt"

Well... thanks to the 'investigation'
that is a possibility..prosecution might have been worried about additional 'bad surprises' at trial.

Not guilty of killing two people? Are you people actually believing yourselves?

Give me some of what you are smoking.

Did I mention, Karen is a killer? AKA good person? AKA criminal? AKA admitted in open court of all of the above?

All you defenders really do sound foolish from the standpoint that the woman "fessed-up" and stood the higher moral ground. Your insistence of a new trial, Stuart's guilt, mitigated responsibility, incompetent/influenced council only serves to weaken her integrity. You should be ashamed. I would hope if you were a true friend of this woman, you would show her the dignity she deserves.

These posts read like you turned out kindergarten.

"Fattie! Call Jennie and lose 200 lbs! You're so fat you waddle?"

WTFH? Does your mother know you're on the computer calling people names again?

Laouida,I think "dough doughs" works very well. Poor 6:53 is sitting in squalor, covered in potato chip crumbs,praying the PC they got from Goodwill does not go boobs up in the water and gnawing on the 12th piece of fried chicken wishing for just one day he could be two things,
1) Kingfish ( THE Kingfish)
2) Wanted

Ms. Laouida, while your defense of KF is certainly commendable, you should clean up the Internet long tail that trails you. Throwing stones in glass houses is not a good thing. I'm saying this more out of concern than anything else. Peace.

Laouida, I don't see any posts about KJ. Heck, everyone loves his blog. It's the most informative blog in MS no doubt. KJ, I am toasting you right now! Glasses up for KJ.

That's why I always read Kingfish's articles and not the other outside sources. Kingfish is an Vital Trustful True writer and very important =) I just don't like each other calling People bad names that's all. Kinda keep it clean. About the issue is totally different!

KaptKangaroo said...

Laouida, you should expand your horizon to other blogs he shares here on his site. Worth a read. Yes, he is matter of fact reporting. Yes, he is putting the facts out there. But, no one hold the truth. I am a very long time fan and have found a great deal of enjoyment from the other writers out there. Although, KF, I have to say your attempt at prose with KI's sentences, while dramatic, just wasn't you. Laouida, NMC is a good place to start. I have only commented once. The posts and comments are enough for anyone to digest and every once in a while you might catch a great recipe.

Why are so many comments deleted here when they are still listed under "Recent Comments" in the right-hand column? I guess they'll disappear eventually over there.

Responding to the above: Did such occur? Who knows the details?

Ok, I will say this. The person claiming to be Barb's grandaughter is telling the truth.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Trollfest '07

Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.

If you get tired come relax at the Fox News Tent. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag.
