JJ reported yesterday that the Mississippi Highway Patrol appointed Captain John Perkins to the position of Training Director. JJ has reported on the legal fight the previous training director, Gayle McMullan, had with the MHP administration, thus the interest in the appointment. MHP did not issue a press release but JJ posted a message Captain Perkins posted on his Facebook page that somehow made its way to this website. Apparently the good Captain was not too happy about the post yesterday because he posted this message on his Facebook page yesterday:
Having said that, I'm sorry you refer to this site as "Jumboliar." It's Colonel Guillard's favorite nickname for this website as well. Please tell me what JJ lied about in regards to DPS or MHP? Please. If anything, it has been the other way around as JJ busted your agency for lying on public records request and the State Personnel Board caught your department lying on an employee's firing as well. Read this earlier post.
Having written that, JJ will turn the other cheek and congratulate you on the new position as well as wishing you the very best in training our future law enforcement officers.

Captain Perkins, you are an insecure moron...for a badass trooper you sure have a thin skin (just the kind of guy you want training cops).
Grow up and get over yourself, you're a Captain (nobody knows how with all of the bullshit you're pulled in your career) in a department that is the butt of every joke in real law enforcement.
John, thanks for reading JJ!
Anyone who expects privacy on ANY social media platform needs to undergo a psych evaluation.
Apology for the typo - "all the bullshit you've pulled in your career."
Maybe he can figure out how to restrict his FB page to Friends only. I just went to it and discovered all kinds of things about the guy and I'm not a friend. Ever heard of privacy settings?
Is he such an idiot to think that what he posts on Facebook is confidential? Just think what the Russians did with it. And Trump and Bryant.
Interesting that a jerk like this is now head of training. No wonder law enforcement are such jerks if they are trained by people like this.
To recap.....
"I posted something on my personal page that was confidential and secret. I forget that Facebook is pretty much public once things are shared and forwarded. My promotion is my business and nobody has a right to know about it even though I work for a state agency and my salary and benefits are paid for with public funds. Therefore and consequently, If somebody doesn't hurry and come forward about this travesty, I will have no choice but to delete everybody and retire into my cubicle in the safety of my paranoia."
May God Help Us: These are the people we count on to Protect and Serve.
He got the training director job without applying for it? Damn, McMullin was intentionally kept from applying when she wanted to and it took the 5th Circuit forcing DPS to do the right thing. For a while anyway. And Captain Perkins got the same gig without even attempting to apply. Wow.
DPS is so screwed up. You’d have to get rid of about 85% of all employees and start over to have any chance of making it actually work. It’s hopeless.
I have known Capt. Perkins all of his career. He was always given Promotions for some reason or another and as far as I know he is never taken a promotional test in his career !!!!! There’s a lot of difference between being Someone’s boss and being a leader !!!! So good luck MHP you will need it !!!!!
Wow. Temper, temper.
He's obviously got something to hide... and folks who want him exposed.
Better keep an eye on this one, KF.
Last week, JJ called out the deputy for letting the dog die in a hot car and used the big F word during his tangent.
Now he has a top dog at MHP upset.
Looks like JJ may be considering using uber to get around incognito.
It's almost as bad as when Kennuff slammed the police and it got caught on a hot mic.
I just wonder if Matt is going to take a chance and let JJ get behind another hot mic.
Odd how 2 officers in "public service" have a problem with what, seems like, a libertarianish, freedom leaning digital publication.
"I'll have no choice but to delete anyone I work with off of my page."
Captain is a candidate for gender reassignment surgery, as he seems to be a 14-year-old girl trapped in a man's body.
That is so gay. And not in the fanny-sex sense of the word.
LOL.
"No, Captain! Not your FaceBook page!
What is this guy's problem? When I the letter he posted it seemed like something he wanted to share with the public. I had no thoughts other than I hope MHP finally has someone that is up to the task. I had nn reason to believe otherwise, that is until I read this childish, spoiled brat insecure dribble. I predict ha won't get a whole lot of respect from the rank and file.
Yep. Real trooper there. He will make a great leader.
I confess I sent it.
What a bizarre, inappropriate and disproportionate response. I wanted to be critical, but I think poor fellow needs some mental assistance. I respect LEOs in general, but this is just sad.
I think this is hilarious, this guy is supposed to be the "iron that sharpens other iron" and he can't take even a little criticism; and Captain Perkins, your response says more about you than anyone who shared on commented on it.
But I see this as an indication of a larger problem with modern society in general, we tend to over-share on social media platforms and then get upset when folks don't agree with us or our point of view. There's always a risk in sharing an opinion, but there's an easy solution - STOP! Stop sharing the useless minutiae of your life, what you had for dinner, etc., you are diminishing the value of communication with your mindless drivel.
This fake news. lying news sources sh*t is getting old and worn out!
First Clarion-liar was the rave, now we have Jackson Jumbo-liar!? Really!? People just need to grow the f*ck up.
Check this out John W. Perkins, given your place of employment you know good and darn well the back stories with your predecessor.
Take the promotion, keep your lid shut, stay off social media (considering the importance of your position) do the job. Period.
Hopefully, the next Governor can get a commissioner in there and clean up the mess.
Looks like Captain Perkins changed his Facebook settings lol. What a jackass! Also looks like he was in the National Guard at one time because we have several mutual friends. Army MPs really are the lowest of our officer corps. He should have better leadership skills than to write such an angry, bizarre post calling out those he is supposed to lead. At least his idiocy has been called out for all to see.
And this is why agencies that want professionals instead of cowboys send their cadets to Shelby.
Next.
I can relate to Captain Perkins. There was this one time that I too posted something of statewide relevance on my Facebook account. It was intended as a personal exchange between myself and my 430 Facebook friends. I was both shocked and dismayed when this private correspondence somehow found its way into the public domain.
I’m just here for the comments laughing at an internet badass.
JJ-liar never disappoints.
No one wants to clean this mess up. The Gov, Lt Gove and speaker of the house all have troopers as “security “. For what I have no idea but also use the patrol to get politicians out of DUI’s. So the are indebted to DPS.
That boy ain't right.
Three independent sources have confirmed that nobody gives a shit about this.
"I thought my comments on the internet were just between me and my 430 friends. How was I to know it might get out?"
