Walter Lee Young surrendered to JPD after he was charged with capital murder in the death of 81 year-old Lee Kendrick. Young is 21. Young contacted Hinds County Sheriff candidate Victor Mason and turned himself in to police with Mr. Mason's assistance. Kendrick was shot to death last week in a vacant unit at the Cedarstone Apartments in North Jackson.
Police also arrested and charged Loren Shell, 24, with capital murder last week. Several law enforcement sources told JJ she is a prostitute. Kendrick's Buick sedan was stolen after the murder and recovered in Jefferson County. Security camera video at a Jackson gas station showed Shell getting out of the Buick and into another car.

Oh! So now she's a prostitute, a rumor given credence simply because it was told by a policeman?
Why would a prostitute and a punk-boy kill an old man and leave him in an abandoned apartment building? What was the gain? If she was a hooker and he her pimp, they could make more in two nights than that old car was worth.
Life has no value, morality no compass, greed no boundary.
So why was he with a prostitute in an apartment known for that activity?
He was kidnapped at gunpoint, Brainiac.
You two are slow. Probably she asked the victim for help to lure him away, and that was fatal. A car, whatever he had, maybe an ATM trip or two?
Looking at her, she wouldn't make that in two months. And go to Walter's FB page, pics of $28 and a joint and 13 pills-- he would kill anyone for a $2k car. Blame the victim, an 81yo man? You should be ashamed, wait for the pitiful truth to come out: you can get killed in jacktown for NO reason and next to nothing valuable ...
where was he when he was kidnapped at gunpoint?
That will come out as the investigation proceeds, Brainiac #2.
Didn't hear this from law enforcement but from someone who knows a family member of the woman. She is a known prostitute and has been in trouble with the law before this.
I did not know Mr. Kendricks or his family. I assume he was either kidnapped at gunpoint or lured by a hard-luck story.
Regardless, it's just a damn crying shame. Killed an 81-year old man for a few bucks and an old car. No regard for human life. Did these subhumans honestly think they were going to get away scot free?
What in the hell has happened to our society.
For the Turd-In-The-Punch-Bowl at 8:14: Pay attention, Shorty. Nobody blamed this on the old gentleman. The old gentleman was a victim in every possible way. Just as any of the rest of us might be on any given day.
@3:01 - I'm no authority, but I doubt a Jackson hooker makes more in one two nights than a 2003 buick is worth. That's a lot of $10 dolla hollas!
I could have been Mr Kendricks. Had a guy knock on my door and wanted to make some money. We agreed that he would rake leaves, which he did.
Then he said his ride wasn't coming, and asked if I'd drive him home. I stupidly agreed and ended up in a sketchy area of west Jackson.
Luckily, this guy had no ill intent. It could have gone very bad.
So I was stupid and lucky that day.
