Want some weed with that oil change?

The Hinds County Sheriff's office busted a drug operation at Williams Complete Car Care on 1555 W. Northside Drive tonight.  Deputies seized 25 lbs. of marijuana (street value is $6,200), a handgun, cash, scales, and other paraphernalia. This was the third drug bust made by Hinds County deputies today and the fifth one this week.  Deputies arrested Marlon Williams (35), Joshua Holly (29), Curtis Bozeman (33), and Odarron Washington (22).  The charges are possession of marijuana with intent to distribute while in possession of a firearm.



Chief Deputy Chris Picou said the shop had the equipment to handle much more marijuana and that they probably caught the operation at a "down time".  He said area residents alerted the sheriff's office through the use of social media. 






Sheriff Tyrone Lewis issued the following significant activity report:



1.       On Wednesday 3/19/2014 Hinds County Sheriff’s Department Narcotics Division arrested William Peals D.O.B. 7/31/1979 residing at 2204 Ludlow, Jackson, MS Peals was arrested at 1245 Bailey Avenue for Possession of Crack Cocaine (approximately ¼ ounce) with intent to distribute. Peals is currently on probation for Aggravated Assault with the MS Dept. Of Corrections.

At the request of Officers at the scene K-9 Unit “Liberty” responded and alerted to the presence of narcotics in the vehicle. Due to the K-9 alert of Liberty, officers seized approximately one pound of Marijuana and approximately five grams of powder cocaine. Roche L. Fleming D.O.B. 5/25/1980, residing at 1245 Bailey Avenue, Jackson, MS was charged with Possession of Marijuana with intent to distribute as well as possession of cocaine with intent to distribute.

I lived in the Jackson Area awhile now. Has anyone ever noticed that JPD never, ever does a major local drug bust. Each section of town has a major dealer. Presidential Hills, Bailey Ave, ect. Been the same guys for years. Yet no one ever gets arrested. Now HCSO is doing their work. Good for them.

I am sure that because this is a black owned business that the white man planted those drugs on the young men, leave our black men alone, they are working hard trying to support their families . This blog is very racist

Where's the entrepreneurial spirit? These guys are simply today's alternative commerce. All this money will be rolled back into the local economy.

This is a joke. Do you have any idea how much dope is in that area? There's probably a hundred pounds within a hundred feet of that store. All ready to sell. The highschool kids definitely know it. It's easier for a 16 - 21 year old to get a sack of weed in Jackson than a six pack of beer. Hell, I used to buy from them myself. But nowadays, your kids at Ole Miss seem to be supplying our area with some of the high quality medical grade stuff. What we should be alarmed about, is that the drugs in this bust, and most of the drugs from that area, came from cartels.


And the person above who said who cares about powder cocaine and weed doesn't have much experience with cocaine. Weed is one thing. Cocaine is a whole different picture. Cocaine kills. Please don't act like they are one in the same.

"He (Picou) said area residents alerted the sheriff's office through the use of social media."

This sound like some sinister white plot, just neighbors feed up with this garbage going on in their front yards.

Big Daddy - I've never heard the phrase "cocaine whore" or "cocaine house". Cocaine destroys people and families, but crack destroys whole neighborhoods.

Natasha G - The current sheriff, who directs these deputies, is also black - is he part of the white man's nefarious plot too?

And 12:15 am - what child is missing in Homds County?

And "today's alternative commerce" - does that mean the dealers were qaccepting bitcoins? :-)

"Homds" should be Hinds - sorry I'm typing while eating lunch

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.
