Two Career Criminals Convicted of Home Invasion in Madison’s Wendover Subdivision
Madison and Rankin Counties’ District Attorney Michael Guest announced today that Thaddeus LaThomas Jarvis aka “NO” and Gregory Ponell Trigg aka “Lucky”, were convicted of Armed Robbery, Kidnapping, House Burglary and Conspiracy.
Trigg pled guilty and was sentenced to serve 30 years in the custody of the Mississippi Department of Corrections. Jarvis was found guilty following a two-day trial and was sentenced to serve 35 years in the custody of the Mississippi Department of Corrections. The sentences imposed in both cases will be served day-for-day without the possibility of probation, parole or early release.
On September 12, 2016, the Ridgeland Police Department responded to the Wendover Subdivision after receiving a 911 call regarding a home invasion. Law enforcement spoke with the homeowners and learned that two mask-wearing males burst into their home and held them at gunpoint. Once inside the home, the two gunmen stole a large amount of cash and jewelry and fled the subdivision in a white Infiniti.
Investigators, through the use of video surveillance, were able to track the Infiniti to the Extended Stay Hotel in Jackson. At the hotel, officers discovered that the driver, later identified as Jarvis, had rented a room and that Trigg had been staying with him. Officers also learned that the white Infiniti had been reported stolen the week prior from Pearl. Law enforcement then began checking social media accounts for Jarvis and Trigg and found where both defendants had posted photographs of themselves with the white Infiniti, brandishing pistols and wearing the stolen jewelry.
Arrest warrants for Jarvis and Trigg were issued and both defendants were arrested several days later. Following the arrest of Trigg, he agreed to speak with police and confessed to the home invasion. Jarvis was also questioned and he admitted only to possessing the stolen jewelry.
Guest stated, “These are two violent criminals who terrorized an elderly couple for no reason other than their own greed. Because of the efforts of the Ridgeland Police Department and their exemplary investigative work, these criminals will now spend the better part of their lives behind bars.”
Guest concluded, “Jarvis and Trigg are both career habitual offenders. Trigg has eight prior felonies that include numerous property offenses and a conviction for aggravated assault, while Jarvis has been convicted on felony offenses twice in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. These convictions and sentences will help make the entire metro-area safer from two individuals who have exhibited a life-long pattern of failing to obey the law.”

That's how you do it. Good for Madison. In jackson they would be free already.
Losers must not have received the memo advising the committing of crimes only in the welcoming and lenient Hinds County.
These individuals never had a chance in our society. They were already convicted the minute they were accused of this crime.
Justice for Trayvon: I'm sure in the 8 prior felonies Trigg was framed too!
No 11:04 they were convicted because they did the crime !
Wow! Only 10 months and 8 days from committing the crime to being sent to prison. It's not hard to figure out that this was NOT in Hinds County. If it had been they would still be on the streets terrorizing
people. The sad part is we now have to support these gutter rats for the next 30/35 years.

The 2 did have a chance, the same chance we all have every single day. They decided to take the easy way, letting others do the work so all they had to do is prowl the streets and steal from honest people. No, they weren't convicted the minute they were accused of the crime. One pleaded guilty and the other was convicted in a courtroom by a jury of his peers. That's the way we do things in America.
11:04. People like you give liberals a bad name.
I would say that if you get 35 years after a trial, and 30 years on a plea agreement, crook #1 made a poor decision to plea.
Justice For Trayvon: Mr. Trigg confessed and said: "Man, I did the deed." The other loser just had to post his face on Facebook showing off his new jewelry. And there was video evidence of the stolen ride, and on and on and on. Where do you get this crap they were convicted the minute they were accused? Put the race card down. It is worn out.
11:00 Justice for Trayvon, they had a chance and a choice. They did not commit this crime in Hinds County and they posted this shit on Facebook , related to the crime, I'm black and do not want this trash around my family!!! Good riddance to the fuckers! They can now screw each other in prison.
To All, gotcha!!! Hahaha. I'm actually pro-cop, pro-death penalty, and pro-life
@JfT
You're a troll...run along & make comments on something you do understand like maybe Obamacare & EBT cards.
Congratulations to Justice for Trayvon for another successful trolling. It's like hunting over a baited field.
Is there any military in the world where criminals have option of military, and possibly reformed there?
Or is that something Romans did and no modern army does?
Curious.
Man, don't even give "Justice for Trayvon" a second thought. He's just an online troll making comments he believes will be provocative. That HAS to be the case, because no one could say what he did after reading the FACTS of the case detailed above.
As these types of crimes increase, the next stage we are going to enter will be one in which the criminals leave no witnesses, no matter the severity of the crime.
Get a gun and learn how to use it.
I just imagine what these two idiots are thinking right now. One saying to the other, " I know we should have stayed our dumbasses in Hinds County, at least we can smoke weed, post on Facebook and talk on our cell phones while waiting to go to MDOC".
One dumbass to the other, I told you that house was not in Hinds County"!
2:04 - WOW!: During the days of the draft the U.S. Military did accept recruits who went straight from the jail to the induction station -- under guard. No more. Today you have to pass a background check and pass literacy and aptitude tests. When I went through basic training at Fort Jackson, S.C. in 1959 two-thirds of my entire company were jailbirds from Pennsylvania. About a dozen ended up in the brig before the eight weeks were up. All volunteer services today with professional soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines.
I think this has all been a big misunderstanding. These fellas were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
So, I wonder who gets the guns, oldest son, best bitch, brother, sister, who...........someone gets them, they can't take them with um.
12:56 - don't chase Justice for Trayvon off...those are some of the best posts on here, so s\he's a troll -- who cares?? Also - is that moron wearing a Santa Claus beard in his facebook photo??
With those prior felonies they should have been"83" habitual offenders and sentenced to life without the chance for parole. So actually somewhere along the line the DA dropped the ball. Furthermore if they were not sentenced to at least an "81" habitual they will only have to do 50% if the time ordered. Why not 83 Habitusls Mr. Guest?
Justice for Trayvon.....troll another blog loser.
I think this is sort of what is meant by 'Justice for Trayvon'.
