Would-be cop killer killed.

 Update (1/28/18): Deceased is Crystaline Barnes.  She was indicted in 2014 for burglary but the case was remanded to inactive docket in 2016.

JPD issued the following statement. 

It occurred shortly after 7:30am as an Officer was conducting the stop of a vehicle for a traffic violation after receiving reports that the vehicle had forced another motorist off the roadway. 

After stopping the suspect vehicle and requesting an additional unit for assistance, the vehicle pulls away.  The suspect vehicle u-turns to evade the responding unit.  It later stops and began driving in reverse toward that Officer who had exited the patrol vehicle just prior.  The Officer then discharged their weapon into the vehicle before safely jumping out of its path and the suspect vehicle collided with the patrol vehicle. 

The  suspect vehicle drove forward again towards the initial Officer who also discharged their weapon into the vehicle.  The suspect vehicle subsequently collided with a nearby utility pole just off the roadway.  

The identity of the driver has not yet been determined, but is a black female, possibly in her early to mid twenties.  Further investigation determined that the driver was fatality wounded during the incident. 

It remains unclear what lead to the driver’s actions.  Investigators are actively working to gathering additional information. 

As a part of standard procedure, both Officers will be placed on administrative leave with pay.  Two separate investigations, both an internal and a criminal, will take place in order to determine whether any department polices or any laws have been violated.

4:01, agreed TOTALLY. If YOU don't want to get injured / killed by the police, don't try to injure / kill the POLICE. Seems pretty simple to understand on the front-end, but that's just me.......

So sad. Are we at a point where nationwide training must be mandated so that the public will understand the police will shoot you if you try to kill them.

A part of society seems to have forgotten that.

Could this be handled through a tearful TV spot by Sally Struthers?

Comply or die.

If the vehicle was evading the officer and did a 'u-turn' and then went in reverse toward the officer, that's impossible.

Read the story again. There were 2 officers, one in each direction, so it is possible.

Once again, Obama is gone. His war on law enforcement will no longer be tolerated. Try to kill or injure a police officer and you will suffer the consequences. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes!

Just the latest case of a life lost due to failure to prosecute and imprison criminals. Had Ms. Barnes been serving time for the 2014 burglary, she might still be alive today. Thank goodness the two police officers were able to avoid being killed or injured.

Who knows why it wasn't prosecuted. May not have had a real case. I can't find an indictment on the partner mentioned in the indictment.

If I was armed as a innocent bystander and someone tried to run me over with a car. I would sling lead at them too!
That’s not even taking into consideration this person was non compliant with a law officer.
Just cuz you don’t like the P.O. P.O. don’t mean you can disregard the instruction.

There is often so much more to a story than a headline. It is reported that there is a long history of mental illness in this young woman’s family.

Why don't you just come out & say it. All criminals have mental problems. Police have a tough job with the war on Police started by Clinton, Obama & Kenneth Stokes. Just saying.

Just another thug that had to be taken off the streets the hard way.
The courts can protect the thugs but every once in a while one will have to face the people.

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.
