Carjacking and shooting a mother at an elementary school is a good way to go up the river, even in Hinds County. Daniel Henry is serving ten years in prison after he pleaded guilty a year ago to carjacking, aggravated assault, and armed robbery.
A mother's worst nightmare began around 5:30 AM on May 16, 2016. The mother and several other parents were dropping their children off at Obama Elementary School for a field trip to Memphis when the thug showed up for some action. Henry carjacked the woman and shot her in the hand. He drove off in her vehicle but was apprehended on Alabama Avenue.
Circuit Judge Winston Kidd sentenced Henry to serve 20 years in prison but suspended 10 years of the sentence. He will receive credit for time served and serve a 3-year term of supervised probation upon release. The carjacking conviction had a separate sentence of 15 years but 5 years were suspended.

Serious question. Any good guesses what this crime would have gotten him in Madison or Rankin ?
Why not forty with ten suspended. Ten? My Lord!
Not a bad sentence for being dumb enough to get caught. "YOu get xxt#4&, but R%6$3 is dropped for whatever reason. Maybe the Muslims are right. Guilty? Off with his hand!
Shoot him just like he shot his victim and toss him in a deep dark hole. Or better yet, just start taking from the wrongdoer what they took. In his case, hand for a hand. Same for theft-unless its food, you get your hand chopped off. I'm sure this would cure the deviant sexual predatory desires as well...
There REALLY needs to be some way to make these criminals pay for their costs of incarceration. Simple math of 10 years at $30K per year is $300,000 that we taxpayers have to pay in order to "rehabilitate" this SOB. So who's the one getting punished the most?
The only reason the poor victim isn't dead is because the perp was a bad shot. Think about that for a minute.
He meant to kill her and only gets 10 years. Probably won't do half of it.
This is why this shit keeps happening. Not enough incentive to behave.
This isn't justice. This is ridiculous.
Let's see, gun in a school zone, carjacking, shoots mother, likely gun in possession of felon too. All he gets is 10 years. He will be back on the streets committing crimes in just 10 years.
20 years, 10 suspended, and time cut in half for good behavior. Guy will be out in 5 years or less for an armed carjacking.
This happened over a year ago. Why are you just posting it now? Slow day in the racist junk news arena, KF? Or you just 13 months slow on the draw?
Only in Jackson would taking up for a black female crime victim be considered racist. None, and I mean none, of the media reported the outcome. So I check on cases from time to time. Remembered this one and reported the outcome. Yet ignoring the outcome of a crime against a black mother and her child is not racist. Nice try.
Does it matter to you that he is serving time for the same charges in federal prison?
What happened to the federal charges he was also indicted on?
