i hope he savors each minute of freedom. they're his last.

It'll be really interesting to hear the story he comes up with on what happened to the $3+ million. Can't wait till March 20 to find out. Doesn't sound like Judge Thomas is going to give him any more time either.

follow the money......

One please. To Aruba. Only one bag, yes ma'am.

I hope they got his passport. He takes several trips out of the country every year.

Shackelford and Brown were railroaded. Judge Thomas is in with the Aaron Henry family trying to cover a loan default. The Henry boy took a loss and now they are trying to make it a black boy issue. Shame on Judge Thomas.

11:08pm, now it begins as per Brown I have been railroaded this sounds like the same story he would tell his girls. Just because they bought the story from dear ole dad does not mean it is the gospel. As far as his passport, the bonds men might have to bring in Dog the Bounty Hunter! This saga will be played out to the hilt!

11:08PM,So how do you receive a "loan" of $500+k (as Shackelford acknowledged), "loans" of $500+k, a fee of $398k, and other payments of about $250k and then say you're being railroaded? Brown is a low-life and from what I can gather, Shackelford has a history of swindling people out of money. IMHO, Judge Thomas is in the right and letting Brown bond out for only $100k was being extremely lenient. The "railroaded" assertion is laughable!!

How in the world can a full time agitator end up with MILLIONS of $$$$$ in the first place? I had no idea being a race hustler paid so well...maybe the IRS should take a look and see where these MILLIONS came from in the first place....

What is most disappointing as I follow this website is one thing all these dishonest men have in common. They all will be in church on Sunday, bible carrying and singing the loudest! Shackelford, Paris, Harrington, Wolfe, Travelstead!

People like Brown thinks he is smarter than the IRS! Maybe someone should check into the addition of his house along with the pool he did! I am sure you would find he did not pay for it but ... Bingo his clients $'s did and they never knew it!

The IRS should be interested in him. Theft income is taxable and there is no statute of limitations where fraud is involved. As such, he should owe tax on the money he "borrowed" and the money from the forged checks. I'd also be willing to bet that he never reported the fee he was paid. If he thinks Judge Thomas is dealing tough with him, he'd better hope the IRS doesn't get hold of him.

If the Rankin county tax collector finds out he offices in his home, he could also lose his homestead exemption.

He is. All wrapped in with the judges in rankin!!

Ole Aaron was also popular for his other, ah, interests. My first recollection of him goes way back to the time he picked up a young white hitchiker on 61 who was trying to get up to Clarksdale. I'm guessing most of his 'savings' were 'left over grants' from The Kennedy Foundation and The Ford Foundation and such funds that poured money down various Delta ratholes for decades.

9:57, what a way to distract. How the kid's mother got $3million is not the issue here. But I will give you a history lesson so that you know the answer to your attempt to deflect - then you can figure out some other way to defend these two crooks - Brown and Shackleford that have stolen this money. But for the record, even if the $3million was ill-gotten gains, it doesn't give Brown any right to steal it outright from a minor he was entrusted to protect (look up "guardian" in Websters.)

In the 1960's the FCC, in their infinite wisdom, took the license for WLBT-TV away from Lamar Life based on claims that they were not fair and balanced in their reporting, particularly in regards to civil rights and the black community in general. (I can't cite all the particulars, it was decades ago.) FCC 'gave' the license to a company formed for the purpose, with Aaron Henry as its head, and thus the main benefactor of the transfer of the license. Instant millionaire - and in the 60's that was real money!!

I believe Henry sold the station, or at least a major part of it, in the mid-1980's. (See Frank Melton story, chapter xyz.) Best I remember, Henry netted around $10 million. I assume that is the source of the $3million DeMon inherited.

There is some question as to whether DeMon is Aaron Henry's grandson or nephew. The court documents say nephew, but WLBT reported it as grandson. And since DeMon - according to the WLBT report - works at WLBT, I would think but not automatically assume, they could get that fact correct for their report.

Mike Brown's wife sold the house in Rankin County. He is living in Alabama with his wife and two of his girls.
