Too Sweet winds up at City Hall

Robert "Too Sweet" Henderson must indeed think life is too sweet right now. One of Frank's special kids. Drug dealer, Thief. All-around thug. Barbour pardonee. Frank Bluntson intern. Here is his rap sheet:

2/27/97: Violation of Probation, Contempt of Court, Disorderly Conduct
7/10/96: Possession of C/S (controlled substance)
11/10/95: Possession of cocaine, contempt of court
5/26/92: Receiving stolen property
3/2/92: Receiving stolen property
9/6/91: Possession of cocaine
3/18/91: Auto theft
1/15/91: Possession of cocaine
9/20/90: Possession of cocaine

Convictions:
Three years for possession of cocaine with intent. Pled guilty on 5/26/92. Indictment #92-1-090-00.
Three years for possession of cocaine. Two years was suspended. 3 years probation. Pleaded guilty on 11/21/97. Probation ended in 2002. Was fined $2,000.
One year for receiving stolen property. Sentenced on 12/5/97.
His MDOC ID Number was 98630.

Last year he worked in the Tyrone Lewis campaign. This year he is driving around in a nice blacked out SUV plastered with Frank Bluntson signs and he is now working for the city, courtesy of councilman Frank Bluntson. The Jackson Free Press reported this week:

"In an odd twist of fate, Henderson is now working for Bluntson as a paid city intern, in a role the council president called "a field guy."

Bluntson, who defended Melton's duplex demolition, said Henderson works 18 hours a week going out to visit city residents who call in about problems--such as city property with overgrown weeds. "He comes back and gets it solved," Bluntson said of Henderson. "Folks get sick and tired (of the problems)..."

Bluntson, who is running for mayor, said that Henderson's 18 paid city hours "have nothing to do with my campaign." He added that he and Henderson have not "gone back and discussed" his criminal past, that he relies on his late friend's trust of Henderson and doesn't need to look at things he's done in the past: "Frank Melton told me how much he helped him. ... Why not give a person a second chance to see how they do?"...
." Article

Donna Ladd wrote the story and its a good one (I was working on it but she beat me to it. It happens and all I can say is "good job"). Needless to say, she pulled her punches because there is much dirt on this guy she and I both are aware of but without that document or quote from someone on the record, there is only so much that can be published. WLBT broadcast a report on his hiring last night. Earlier post with rap sheet. Earlier post with convictions

I'm guessing everyone who works for the city of Jackson has a criminal history.

Next step is to open up his own church in da hood....

Seems like something everyday. I grew up in Jackson and have good memories. I chose to live somewhere else when I moved back. Crime, water/sewer, schools, roads, etc., etc., etc. Leadership or lack of of it. Harvey is not a bad guy but the last true leader Jackson has a Mayor was Dale Danks. People continue to elect leaders in Jackson and Hinds County who are just not worth a crap. Until that changes Jackson and Hinds county will not be worth a crap.

I'm confused. I thought Jacktown was 'little Detroit'. Now you tell me it's 'little Chicago'.

No doubt he would understand redemption.

Also, Henderson has various charges pending including threatening someone last year during the Lewis campaign. Two questions: did any of Frank's boys turn into positive adults? And, Hatch Act?

Well, I was about to suggest that perhaps this was the rap sheet of someone with a drug problem who has been clean for over a decade until I read that he threatened someone last year.

Haley pardoned him so this is not just a Melton legacy or black politics.

Could he know too much about too many politicians and heavy shakers in the white community so as to make him untouchable?

I have noticed that the white community has plenty of those who defend their own when they have done wrong . The first sentence is usually about either church attendance or donations to the community.

Kim Wade said...

He got a full and complete pardon. In the eyes of the law he's now a republican...

I don't care who you are, THAT'S funny , Kim!

6:12,

I've also been laughing about Kim's comment.

Kim Wade can get elected into a much more important post than some piss-ant Jackson or Hinds County position.

But, Wade is smart enough to play the game.
I wish he would challenge Greg Harper.

Fish, you need a like button for some of these comments. :)

Kim Wade has his place. But Greg Harper would stomp a mudhole in him in a race for congress. And he knows it. By the way, Kim your comment was funny. Just about every democrat in office I know is a piece of scum. The Republicans I know in office ain't far behind. Once white folks like me realize this maybe we can get some real change in MS.

Anonymous said...

I'll admit that I'm wrong and you're right 10:35.

There is no way he could beat Harper ( TODAY ) .

My point was that Wade understands the political
realities of Jackson & Hinds County.

After thinking about it, I agree that It might be best if Kim did start out in a local election.

If he rocked the boat in Jackson/Hinds politics, he would damn sure receive the free media exposure
necessary to hopefully inspire current Jacksonians to stop remaining silent about the current BS that has been killing Jackson/Hinds since the Kane Ditto administration.

Wow. Barbour and his legal eagles cleared this guys record? How do they sleep at night when you consider the totality of what they did?

Kingfish said...

This smells like Neely.

Shadowfax said...

What has Kim Wade being perpetually pissed off at Jackson got to do with anything? So, he can make republicans and most white people laugh and he can talk endlessly about red tape and boondoggles at City Hall. That qualifies him to run for congress? It's more of the "He talks and thinks like we want him to" mentality. How do 'you' propose he could possibly be elected in Jacktown?

Anonymous said...

D. Neely is a joke. Not the brightest either. The pardons say a lot about the character of Haley and his "staff".

I had a dream that the Green Lantern's next
boyfriend will be delusional "wan'a-be" superhero
character named shadowfax.

Shadow is posting shit at 4:38 am ?

Get a life dude .

Shadowfax said...

Shadow is up running businesses at 3:30 a.m. while you're pooting in the sheets, dude. What's up with the multiple posts as anonymous, Moop?

Anonymous said...

Maybe "too sweet" can get a gig with Haley and his cronies if it doesn't work out with Bluntson.

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.

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.
