One perfect example of why people are leaving Jackson.

GREAT example in the Clarion-Ledger today:

"The mother of a 3-year-old girl says the 27-year-old man who raped the child and gave her two sexually transmitted diseases should have gotten life in prison.

Jake Jerome Bias pleaded guilty this week to statutory rape and faced from 20 years to life in prison.

But he only has to serve 15.

Hinds County Circuit Judge Tomie Green sentenced him to 20 years, but suspended five. He will serve three years on probation after his release."

"and Hinds County"

Oh my Gosh...I am sick to my stomach (and it has nothing to do with the alcohol consumed last night)
How can you suspend 5 years for a piece of shit who RAPED A 3 YEAR OLD??? How is that even able to be justified? I can't even describe the anger that I feel after reading this...Someone needs to take a blow torch to his butt Pulp Fiction style.
This...is....sick

And, this along with many other reasons make me VERY happy to be moving out of Hinds County this summer!!!

Anonymous said...

Anyone who votes for Tomie Green in the next election is saying that Judge Tomie Green made the right decision when sentencing this twisted subhuman to only twenty years and suspended five of those years.

Clearly, there is something radically wrong with Judge Tomie Green's judgement.

This sicko raped a THREE year old baby girl, for God's sake!

This can't stand

The reason that Jackson is much worse than other bad central cities the triple threat of Hinds county, the JPS and city of Jackson.These are 3 out of control taxing units that pile it on you. The legal system makes a third world county look fair and honest.AND we only really see a small part of the coruption.

If something like this happened in Madison County, they would have gone for life without parole.
Shameful. Absolutely shameful.
I completely agree. Wake up, people! If horrible things happen to you in Hinds County and/or Jackson, you will get no justice!

What lawyer defended this child rapist??

Anonymous said...

You think "Judge" Tomie Green is pleased with herself?

Anonymous said...

Maybe a focus group or two, fresh logos and a new marketing campaign to explain Jackustan's "vision" of what it isn't but pretends to be can spin this to a win. Hey, why not market Jackustan and the Hinds tribal region as a destination party stop for pedophiles and sexual preverts? You know, like Thailand. Those perps have disposable income and the downside of their getting serious time if caught is obviously minimal.

Green is a disgrace to the bench. I cannot BELIEVE she gave such a light sentence to an effin scumbag...
And where is Ladd on this?? How is she going to justify this bullshit??

Where's DonnerKay on this? Will she put this on her list of reasons to leave ... or her list of reasons to stay?

Did she read a poem as part of the sentencing?

If a Madison Co. or Rankin Co. judge handed down such a light sentence to a child rapist, he / she would be run out of town on a rail, or at least voted out of office my a landslide.

Apparently Judge Green's constituents are basically OK with child rape.

Black community, are you awake? Do you even care?

Rebekah said...

Green is a joke to the judicial system.
A teacher gets 40 years for having child porn but an actual child RAPIST has to only serve 15...
She is a JOKE...

And if the man is black (which I do believe he is) Ladd will justify it by stating he is distressed because of how hard it is being a black man in a white man's world and the distress caused him to drink so heavily that he "mistook the child for an adult" (which is what he stated)....The white man caused the black man to do this....

Jackson's turning the corner. It is emerging. Another example of the collective awakening. The swagger is back!

How did this woman become a judge? She is a disgrace to her position. Maybe she is racist. Look at the very severe sentence she gave Karen Irby.

Anonymous said...

No doubt if Donna Ladd of the Jackson Free Press comments at all she'll share her priceless wisdom that the drunken raping of a three-year old is a nuanced matter.

I left the Jackson area fifteen years ago and never looked back. The last night I spent in the area, I was driving down Hwy 80 and the car ahead of me and the car behind me were SHOOTING at each other.
As far as "Judge" Green, she showed her stupidity when reading the poem at the Irby sentencing.

Renee said...

I can tell you right now as the mother of a three year old little girl that there isn't enough time or punishment for this low life trash. This filth not only raped her but gave her two life changing STDs. I hope that pathetic excuse for a judge doesn't ever have to face this child as a grown woman. I'd put my money on the girl. Please pray for her as she goes through her life. It won't be an easy road for her or her mother. 15 years on our dime is a DISGRACE!!!

Question for a lawyer who understands criminal law: How do you challenge this stupidity and get this low-life a tougher sentence?

Unknown said...

Wait, the Clarion Ledger has to write "private part" instead of "penis?"

So weird.

I no longer live in Jackson, but for this reason and others, y'all are seriously stuck about 35 years in the past.

Anonymous said...

I'm surprised you folks are shocked at a light sentence from Greene. It's her MO, along with a healthy overturned rate from the MS Supreme Ct. This all goes back to KF's headline....why folks are leaving Jackson. It's because the black population continues to elect idiots like Greene. Sheeple.

Anonymous said...

The upshot is this piece of garbage will get his just rewards in prison. Nothing brings fellow criminals together like a good child rapist.

This is the same judge that realeased a man on bail that raped a white woman in canton and beat her boyfriend to death with a baseball bat----I think she is really sick or so blindly prejudiced she does not care.

C'mon people. All we've got to do is change the narrative. It is all about the visioning process. Child rapists are given light sentences in many broken cities nationwide. We're in good company because we aren't alone. This is our story. This is who we are as a community. Let's get the message out!

Elections have consequences. People should pay attention more!

What in the HELL kind of sentence is this when the predator is getting out of jail when the victim is (by Mississippi standards) still even a minor??

Shit like this makes me want to quit my job and follow judges to their car every day. What gives YOU the right to think that was enough? Do YOU know what it's like to have gonorrhea? Do YOU know what it's like to take your baby to a doctor and have your child's vaginal area inspected and hear the word RAPE? About your BABY?

This "man" needs to be lying lifeless in the woods somewhere. Period. Don't waste my money feeding him 3 meals a day.

Don't waste my money on Judge Green for that matter. 15 years?? Green, you are a prejudiced, arrogant, justice-blind sorry excuse for a person with the power to hand down an opinion.

As far as the blacks 11:50am speaks of voting these judges in, it's true. Most black people see a black person running for anything, they will literally SHIT a voter registration card before they learn the first thing about a candidate or their record.

Judge Green= idiot.

elections will not matter, the people of Hinds county want Tommie Green and many more like her. The look of Jackson will be soon just like the look of the students in the JPS.

I thought you'd all like to know the Jackson Free Press isn't covering this story at all today! Nope. Donna has an article up on the front that says "Don't allow the troubles of this world to ruin your peace of mind."

criminal lawyer here. have done both prosecution and defense.

the guy plead guilty without a plea bargain. that placed the decision SOLELY in Tomie Green's soiled hands. There is no appeal of a sentence that is within the statutory minimum and maximum and doesn't exceed the maximum. End of case.

This story just gets worse and worse. The man who raped the 3 year old was her FATHER. It was his DAUGHTER. Horrible.

There is always a silver lining. Is it possible that Claiborne would have to go before Judge Green?

Would someone please bring this Judge to the attention of Bill O'Riely since he has a microphone, a hugh audience and is an advocate for children that don't get Justice.

Curt Crowley said...

Criticism of the sentence seems fair, but what I don't get is the accusation of racism by some commenters. Where is the evidence that Judge Green treats white defendants differently than black defendants? Is there a similar case where Judge Green gave a harsher sentence to a white defendant under similar circumstances?

I don't currently have any cases pending before Judge Green, but I have in the past. Each time I have appeared in her courtroom, she has been professional and nice to me. And I'm white.

Can someone explain the basis for the claim that she is a racist?

Anonymous said...

Curt: The KI example of Green being a racist is a poor one. Karen deserved the sentence she received for killing two people. I think more folks are bitching about the black population blindly voting for black candidates without checking those folks out. Which is how we end up with ridiculous sentences like the one handed out in this case. This guy will be back on the street within my and my children's lifetimes....if he doesn't meet his just rewards in jail first.

And I'm glad you've had pleasant experiences with the good judge. From my interactions with her courtroom, you were lucky.

Mark Geoffriau said...

Come on, guys, this is just part of the trade-offs of living in an urban area. Folks in Madison have to suffer through kitschy, homogeneous architecture, and folks in Jackson just have to deal with a few rapists and pedophiles.

Just read in the CL that Judge Green sentanced another child rapits to 45 years and he wasn't the childs father in this case.

8:38 - that was a third-srtike offender - even this judge realized she'd catch hell (even from the morons who keep re-electing her) if she let him walk.

Didn't Ben Franklin say in a democracy we get the government we deserve?

There's an interesting story out of Georgia today where civil rights activists are trying to dis-incorporate cities around Atlanta because they are majority-white. The best we can do here is avoid spending time or money in Jackson/Hinds, and support communties with values more in line with our own. Good schools, low taxes, vigourous prosecution of criminals, you know - that old-fashioned stuff.

I was at Pizza Hut Maywood Mart tonight waiting. Black nurse was talking to someone she knew. She was around 50. Started talking about how the police in Jackson sucked and she was moving out of Jackson to one of the surrounding towns first chance she got. She started talking about JPD cops goofing off, being crooked, selling drugs, and crap, I finally asked her about the cops in the burbs, she said at least they'll show up when you call them and usually its two or three cars that do. She said JPD is lazy. I thought dayummm. Just proved Kaze right.

Somebody needs to email and share this with Bill OReilly. He has continuously called out judges who give light sentences to child rapistist. This Judge is a joke and should not be allowed to render another decision in any type of case. And you wonder why people flee. One step forward one hundred steps backwards......keep it up Jackson, you continue to never shock us on a daily basis.

Anonymous said...

I dunno, I kinda like that the inmates at Parchman will get to mete out his punishment.
Even thugs have their standards and don't care for baby rapists or baby killers. He'll be lucky if he survives.

I think rape of a prepubescent warrants the death penalty and life wouldn't be a long enough sentence .

But, I can't tell from this whether Green reduced the sentence on her own or accepted a plea agreement that included time to be served. And, if there was a plea agreement on the time, I don't know why there was. Were the witnesses and evidence such that the prosecuter thought a chance existed that the slug would get off? Was it to save the victim and her family from further trauma? Or just the save the county money?

At any rate, making the leap to a reason to leave Jackson is a bit of a stretch as I can't see the Madison County court doing much better. I've served on juries in both counties and a witness in Madison County's courts twice...I'd be relunctant to attempt a favorable comparison as neither county struck me as models of American justice.

Seven years for an influential man's wife to get a divorce and she's left homeless and ends up only with legal bills and doesn't even get the return of the property she brought into the marriage, isn't my idea of justice well served either.
Then there was the woman who had an affair with her son's underage high school classmate...nothing on that...not even a charge made there despite his parent's desperation.
Seems to me that the bad black leadership has chosen to model themselves after the bad white leadership as it struck them as the fastest way to get rich and gain power. The focus should be on bad leadership and you do that most of the time KF.

An "open plea" means there was no agreement. The sentence was totally up to the judge.

Yep, probably another hundred families moved from Jackson to Rankin and Madison Counties this week. I heard just this week the moving companies round town who make local moves stay booked. No wonder. Business is good around the capitol.

Anonymous said...

9:09 There was np plea bargain. This was all Green's doing.

The SCOTUS ruled that Lousiana's death penalty for rape of a child was unconstitutional, so life with no chance of parole seems to be the harshest penalty that can be imposed. Of course, the judge has to have enough sense to recognize that that is the appropriate sentence for the crime, which requires two neurons so as to make a synapse.

Unknown said...

She gives Karen Irby the maximum sentence...although served at the same time and she suspends most of this guys sentence. Is she tougher on some people (rich, white) than on others?

Anonymous said...

What does a county circuit judge have to do with people leaving Jackson? I can give you a million other reasons why people don't choose Jackson, but this is most definitely a stretch.

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.
