Jackson Jambalaya

So who gets stuck with his medical costs, including apparently a helicopter ride?

I’m sure he required many pints of donated blood to save his sorry butt too.

I hope “she” is ok after dealing with this violent situation. If she was stabbed in the back I am assuming that she was trying to get away from him. WTH do you do with this guy now??

Daddy can’t fix this. But then again we is in miss’sippi

Rankin County supervisors need to open their ears!

I'm not a lawyer but I drove past a Holiday Inn Express. It would depend when he was placed under arrest. If he was not arrested until after being released from UMC and Kingfish says above he was taken into custody upon release, then the medical bills are his responsibility. If he doesn't have insurance then UMC has to eat the costs.

If only we could get people to have health insurance....

It’s about time. He has had several DUI’s covered up.

He's a fireman in Flowood. Most likely his health insurance will pay. I heave a feeling that's about to be terminated though.

Anxious to see what happens next, this has been strangely quiet in the Rankin news. Thanks Kingfish for breaking it.

I hope folks dont loose sight of the victim in this mess, with who the perpetrator knows and is related too.

No surprise, this state is at the top of the list when it comes to Domestic Violence against women, also no surprise this has been kept hush by the good'ol boy system that permeates the state.

Rankin County is lost.

He is a fireman or should I say was one

Why hasn't this been on the news

White THUG LIFE in the Rankin.

Its over there...someone please turn out the lights when you leave the trailer park.

How do THESE people live like this?

Wow...just wow....all these crazy white people.

Yes a lot of things get brushed under the rug

It’s really a problem of culture. Until you change the wife beating culture that is so prevalent in that group, no amount of laws or education will fix anything. You have to wonder why the leaders of Rankin don’t speak out against this destructive culture.

Seriously not posting comments. I’m totally disgusted with this blog now. I guess you are paid for just like everyone else who protects Bryan Bailey. Absolutely disgusting.

1. The post is about the crime and the victim, not all the dirty laundry of the Rankin SO.

2. I contacted the Sheriff when I received a tip to let him know I was filing a public records request for the incident report. He was completely cooperative. When it comes to public records requests, the Sheriff has probably been the most cooperative out of all law enforcement officials in the Jackson metro area or state government. Bar none.

3. This is a domestic violence case. JJ is going to treat it just as it does the rest of them. This website will track the case and keep readers informed of what takes place. It will be treated just as Sheldon Alston, Jr. and Bryan Clark. Period.

4. JJ is not going to identify the victim. Yes, many people, including me, know her identity, where she works, and all that jazz. It's not going up.

5. Some readers have tried to cast aspersions on the victim. Yes, it was the victim who slashed her back and sliced his throat. Not.

6. Some readers are mad because I won't let them post THE TRUTH. Yeah I know. You're a good person. You're just giving us the real scoop. Sorry, this post is about an attack on a woman in Rankin County. I'm not defending libel lawsuits because of some anonymous reader's need to show what he knows to the whole world. Some claims might be true but they either have nothing to do with this post or are not verified.

7. The Sheriff has never given a dime, bought an ad, nor provided any form of compensation to this correspondent or this website. Period. Nor have any of his representatives.

Nice cope Kingfish. Karma is a bitch. You every think Clint is the way he is because he knows what has been going on at that jail and in that sheriff office? It would drive anyone to drink. Literal organ harvesting for God's sake.

@9:22 wow number 5. People always victim blaming. Anyone reading the police report can "assume" she was running away to be cut on the back. wow. He needs to be sent to prison for a long time. Domestic violence needs to end. This case will bring awareness about harming your spouse. No excuse.

Thank you for keeping your blog professional. This is a terrible act and yes the perpetrator needs to pay consequences for his actions and also needs to get some mental help obviously. Instead of trying to air out people's dirty laundry, we should be glad the victim is recovering. Some people can't enjoy life because they are so focused on what other people are doing in their lives. Bryan Bailey and the RSO are great and who cares what they do in their personal lives as long as they continue to do their job-- protect and serve!

I see several comments checking on the victim, but thanks BB

As a member of a law enforcement agency, it does matter what you do in your personal life. Everything you do reflects upon your agency, so yes it does matter. A law enforcement officer’s personal behavior can be brought up during courtroom testimony to call that person’s integrity into question. Law enforcement officers are always judged on both their personal and professional actions. So if you think that because you think the are doing a good job, they can do anything they want in their personal lives, you may be part of the problem.

Wow!!! Hope this guy gets what should be coming to him

Tragic. Know the victim and the suspect. Was shocked of the news.

The article is wrong on one point. He was released as quickly as he was booked in with no bond required. Judge McDaniel has been releasing most everybody that way. He is not requiring a bond for most felony charges. He is full in on the new bail reform same as Hinds county judges. I guess no one has learned the lesson from what as happened in Jackson since JPD and the county started turning criminals loose as fast as they are arrested with no bond required.

Anyone have an update .??

He is out and about. Never stayed a night in jail from what I was told.
