Jackson Jambalaya

Be patient folks as Baby Chok's "(un)Real Time Crime Center" will kick in shortly. Once the thugs learn about it they will be lining up at city hall to turn in all of their guns. Just wait and see.

Police said they found the man's body Thanksgiving Day around 10:30 a.m. The victim was shot in the head and back.
Rusty bullets were used in case he survived he would later succumb to infection.

If only the state flag was changed.

#119.
They're working one at the KFC on Woodrow Wilson right now.

I wish these comments had like and dislike.

#119 today at the KFC on Woodrow Wilson.

"One person is dead after a shooting at the KFC on Woodrow Wilson Avenue.

Jackson police say the shooting happened just before noon Friday."

120...do I hear 120? 130 by the end of December?

KFC = 119... Fighting over a chicken bone.

Projection @ rate (119) = YE 131.

The majority of the people leaving comments are still rooting for Jackson’s murder rate to increase, eh?

Some shameful shit.

3:33 PM Ha.Ha.Ha.Ha. Funny as heck! But, not politically correct. Thanks, 3:33 PM. I needed a good laugh after Thanksgiving.

If only they would have removed the statue of Andrew Jackson in front of City Hall by now, this wouldn't have happened.

" Baby Chok's "(un)Real Time Crime Center" will kick in shortly"

I have faith that you're correct !

From what I understand, that's a major part of his "Holistic" approach to the current murder record.

I read about his plan in the Jackson Free Press many months ago.

funeral homes are full supporters of the current mayor. his policies are incredible for that business

#120 also today.
"Jackson police are also investigating a shooting that occurred in the 3000 block of Charleston Dr.
Adrian Hawkins crashed his 2010 Toyota Avalon after suffering multiple gunshot wounds .
Investigators are still gathering information on both of these shootings.
Jackson now stands at 120 homicides for 2020."

Well shit, 3:51, you’d almost think the city leadership is rooting for it at this point. This isn’t a natural disaster that we have no control over. There are proven ways to deal with the crime, and they do nothing. But we’re supposed to care, when it seems they don’t?

If you want to navigate a road in really bad condition, you should drive that road.

Also, it must be a real pain to post a number, knowing that in less than 24 hours, you will be wrong, wrong, wrong (on the low side of accurate. Sometimes that period you are correct is less than an hour or two.

Projection @ rate (120) = YE 132.

2020 - 120 to date
2019 - 83
2018 - 84
2017 - 64
2016 - 68
2015 – 58
2014 – 68
2013 – 50
2012 – 63
2011 – 52
2010 – 41
2009 – 37
2008 – 63 (I've seen this listed as 73 by an Anonymous poster on J.J.)
2007 – 46
2006 – 40
2005 – 38
2004 – 43
2003 – 45 [1] [2] [3]

We are on track for 132 homicides for 2020 at this rate. What is interesting is that 2019 and 2020 were tracking at along the same rate until July. In July, the homicides in Jackson really took off.

The top years for homicides are:

2020 = 120 to date
1995 = 92
1994 = 91
2018 = 84
1993 = 84
2019 = 83
2009 = 37 Low point. [4]

Chokwe Antar Lumumba assumed office on July 3, 2017. Remember that Mayor Lumumba has stated that he will make Jackson "the most radical city on the planet". [5] He has also said that he will reduce crime through community engagement. [6]

I’d provide these these thugs with free ammo if I had enough to spare...damn, they’re saving us taxpayers a bundle!

Projection rate = 134

I guess those "coffee with a cop" meets were a little light on the effectiveness scale. Maybe Bloomberg is offering Baby Chok some safe advice.

Jackson Police investigate 73rd homicide

"coffee with a cop"

That was OK, but "cocoa with the Po Po" had slightly better impact for a few weeks . . . back then . . .

#121 on Saturday - Sam's Express Food Mart on McDowell Road.

Come on Jacktown - 132 - we know you are up to the task.

Maybe "Donuts with the Detectives?"

122! Go Jacktown thugs. You are on the home stretch to break 130. I knew that you could do it.
