Dr. Larry Cooper and John May were arrested for hindering prosecution, accessory after the fact-murder, and conspiracy. They are both in custody at the Yazoo County Correctional Facility.
May is NOT the Jackson attorney. May is a security guard at the Federal building in downtown Jackson. Dr. Cooper is the brother of Hinds County Court Judge Larita Cooper-Stokes. He practices medicine in Canton. Both suspects will have their initial appearance next Wednesday.
They are suspects in the death of Roger Scruggs. Scruggs' body was found by a crashed ATV near Benton. However, an investigation determined that the crash was probably staged and the victim was killed elsewhere.

I wonder if there will be another "call out" for citizens to throw rocks and bottles at the police again.
You know, because 'Muh feelings'.
Doctor Larry don't look nothin' like Judge LaRita.
Larry! You dumb bastut! You shoulda done know they gonna do an awepopsy!
Kenny Stokes already opened his big mouth & said it is unfair his brother in law is in lockup. Poor thing. All the Stokes think they are above the law. Hope, He get's some loving in jail.
Kenneff said it's not right to arrest him at Christmas time...well that certainly makes sense
So, do we know why these upstanding citizens felt the need to kill this man?
Slow down 3:04. Just because you did it. . .

Roger Scruggs was a friend and Shipmate of mine. He was a man of character...I can't wait to hear all the details of his murder. This is shocking.
I notice that you refer to men by either their last names or their full names, but you referred to Judge Stokes by her first name. Is that an oversight, or are you intentionally being disrespectful? Just wondering.
Actually, you didn't notice much at all, if anything.
I started referring to her as Larita when she was on the City Council. You do remember she served as a City Councilwoman, don't you? Her husband served at the same time as a Hinds County Supervisor. She was pretty outspoken and somewhat flamboyant on the Council so she was called by her first name for those two reasons and to distinguish her from her husband. Just using Stokes might be confusing. She is actually a pretty good judge and this site has complimented her on her decisions a couple of times.
However, I suspect you know this already and are trying to stir up stuff my little gender-baiter. This site refers to the Governor, Leftenent Governor, and Secretary of State all the time by their first names. Phil, Tate, and Gibbit or some variation is used all the time when referring to them. Victor Mason is often referred to as just Victor. Mary Hawkins Butler is referred to as The Queen or Mayor Mary. Rudy Warnock is referred to usually as just Rudy.
As I stated earlier, you know this already, which makes you a liar. If you don't know it, that means you are lazy because you don't pay attention to what you read on this site as you claimed or you are just plain ignorant....... or dumb.
I knew Roger for 25 years, a great guy, very funny and always had a smile on his face, a friend to everyone he met and a Shipmate of mine. I hope the people who did this to Roger will spend the rest of their natural life in prison. Rest in Peace my Brother. I know God welcomed you with arms wide open. God Speed.
RIP Shipmate. I served with Scruggs aboard the Stennis and always thought highly of him. Hopefully justice is served to You and your Family.
