Rankin County Sheriff Bryan Bailey issued the following statement.
Early morning home invasion in Reservoir East
Monday September 25, 2017 around 3:30 a.m. the Rankin County Sheriff’s Department received a 911 call from a Reservoir East homeowner reporting, he and his two roommates were the victims of a home invasion.
The residence is occupied by two nineteen-year-old males and a twenty-year-old male. The three men have lived in the residence for three months. They advised investigators, one of the owner’s car alarm was activated and the owner looked outside but did not see anyone. Moments later, the owners were all awakened by at least three black and one white masked men and forced at gunpoint to the living room.
The violators then went room by room collecting various items before locking the three in a bedroom closet.
After waiting several minutes, the victims left the residence and fled to a neighbor’s residence where they called 911.
This type of crime is not common in Rankin County. Sheriff’s Deputies were called to the same residence the previous night for a large party. One of today’s victims estimated there were nearly fifty individuals at the party. He went on to say there were several attendees they did not know. Investigators are confident the three were targeted and most likely by someone who attended the party and was able to roam about the residence locating items they planned to return and steal.

Please explain how you 'lock somebody in a closet'.
Perhaps with a chair wedged under the doorknob.
If the closet has knobs or levers on outside you can tie the doors shut
In Rankin County they have exterior padlocks on their closets to keep the dogs from eating their women.
Think it's code
Reservoir East is the Presidential Hills of Rankin County. And what's with driving through those dumps in the front to get to the somewhat decent houses in the back.
Also, people get locked in the closet all the time. Most of them voted for Bernie Sanders or Hillary.
Must have been a heck of a party.
Brandon is lost.
These same individuals have occupied this house for a very long time. The lease may have changed names, but I drive by there everyday and it has been a problem source for the neighborhood for a couple of years.
Half of the cops in Rankin county live in that neighborhood.
"Get in this closet. If you come out, I will shoot you in the face."
So much less upscale than the home invasions on Meadowbrook.
Who the heck leases a house to three people under 21? You are asking for trouble. And parties. And everything that goes with it.
Insurance scam?
Can someone delineate 'Reservoir East'? I know it's hard to define ANYTHING, around here, because of the higgledy-piggledy layout of every area laid-out since Belhaven.
It's sad to fly back to Mississippi from Seattle or Minneapolis, watching the landscape grow more disorganized, the farther southeast you fly - less gridded/more confused - & realize that the minds & folkways of the population are equally disorganized, confused, & irrational. The senseless spaghetti of the roads, reflects the tangled-up minds of the people using those roads. It looks like a mess from the air, because is IS a mess.
The ONLY reason I come BACK FROM Minneapolis, Omaha & Seattle is that, for now, I can live safely in Madison, in a house that would cost us five times as much, in Seattle. Madison is the ONLY reason I haven't fled, already. The criminals who forever seek to depose Mayor Mary, need to understand that we geese who lay the golden eggs, are prepared to fly.
If something happens to Queen Mary, we golden geese are GONE - gone from MS, & gone, mostly, from the South. By and large, the only reason we didn't flee long ago (as most of us have planned), is because Mayor Mary created an alternative to Transregional Migration, when she turned Madison into a little golden lifeboat.
News for the Puppetmasters behind Rudy & Bagboy: if you succeed in killing Madison and the Old Agency Road neighborhoods of Ridgeland, the people you're hoping to send fleeing, are mostly NOT going to flee to your NEXT 'dreamworlds'.
We know how to shop for houses thousands of mile from here. We know the demographics are better, thousands of miles from here. We know how much more money we can make, in those places. Many of us have ALREADY made money in those places, & have networked there. We know how to pinpoint the places with the most desirable populations. We know how to call moving companies. We even have alternate accents we use, when we're in other places. We're not trapped here by our speech, as our parents were.
Plenty of our friends & relatives have ALREADY made 'The Great Transcontinental Schlep'. And if you & your minions somehow succeed in destroying the enclaves where we currently feel safe & comfortable, we WILL be making that trek across the continent, ourselves. We WON'T be moving to Livingston.
You may have noticed that as middle class people flee Mississippi, those remaining here are more & more pitiful & dysfunctional. The White Trash who now predominate, in even the best Jackson Metro neighborhoods, the best law firms, the top governmental positions - even in the "best" frats & sororities at Ole Miss, do not do so, because they have become less trashy. They do so, because they have been sucked-upward by the VACUUM made by the departure of generations of Mississippi's Best & Brightest. They fell into those slots, not because they were competent, or presentable, or even because they were honest (think Tonya Klauser) or reliable. They occupy those positions, simply because there was nobody better to fill those positions. The better people are GONE. Now, the halfway-better people are thinking about going.
We're fast-approaching some sort of demographic threshold. Beyond that threshold (already foreshadowed by the condition of Mississippi's bridges, the fast-evaporating infrastructure in many of Mississippi's towns, the Singing River Health System Retirement fund fiasco, & our ranking among America's 'Most Corrupt States'). Beyond that threshold, I fear that Mississippi truly WILL descend into some sort of hellish state. The place will be like Puerto Rico - functioning only minimally, & then only because of its attachment to the US. If Mississippi WEREN'T attached to the US, it would turn into another Haiti.
10:08....Reservoir East is not Brandon genius
Dear 3:16's Husband:
Please just pay to have her vanity novel published. This isn't normal.
Thanks,
Literally everyone
Good lord. 3:16, that was the most random, pointless rambling I've ever seen. Please leave already.
ill bet you a million $ the "victims " are renters, not home owners. this is what happens when you let stinking renters into a nice neighborhood . they bring all their gettho shit with them. i own a home in a nice reservoir community that certain real estate investors are trying to BLOCKBUST by bringing in as many ghetto renters as they can to drive down property values but by god i aint gonna let it happen. take notice you people this is the way blockbusters work.
Chris Hansen, reservoir east is 39047 brandon, not brandon proper, but still brandon. It's reservoir brandon. Place is full of renters.
Why am I surprised that people comment about things they know absolutely nothing about? "ghetto renters"?? I happen to know one of the "ghetto renters". He was raised in the ghetto of Lake Caroline, where his parents still reside and I'm quite sure he will be moving back to if he hasn't already. "insurance scam"?? I can promise you these kids did not have rental insurance. People are so judgemental. (and yes they had a party Friday night, drinking was involved, shocker)
7:55 - I'm sure you think Mr. Whistle-Britches whose parents live at Lake Caroline is incapable of hatching a criminal plot like filing a false police report. Since you can 'promise' us he didn't have rental insurance, can you also assure us some of his father's stuff, like guns, were not stolen at the party? I think it is YOU who has been locked in a closet. A closet of denial.
Yes, @10:53, I can assure you he did not have any of his fathers guns at the house. I'm sure he wished he had when the thug was kicking him in the ribs. Check with the Rankin county SO. They will tell you what was stolen. And what if his father's guns were stolen? You think the kid would get the check for that? Damn. Everything is a conspiracy with some people. Watch it sport, there are black helicopters circling your house.
@10:53 I dare you to watch "Ex-CIA Officer Exposes the Shadow Gov't" and then scoff at conspiracies and black helicopters. I encourage everyone to watch it!!! NOW!!!
Ooops. I meant that to 11:42....sorry 10:53
10:08 Good grief. It is not Brandon. It is in unincorporated Rankin County. Brandon has zero jurisdiction. It's asinine for you to lump this with the city of Brandon.
What THE HELL, 3:16?!? Have you been officially diagnosed as insane? Please do immediately take your "higgledy-piggledy" pompous ass away to those glorious places thousands of miles from here!
6:55, 7:04, and 4:18 (same person, I'm assuming):
Is there anything in 3:16PM's post that is not true?
If so, could you tell us what's wrong with the CONTENT of her message? Maybe you might address those points instead of attacking her as a person?
........crickets.....dog barks in distance....more crickets.
Thought so.
