Rankin County Sheriff Bryan Bailey issued the following statement and mug shots.
On Thursday evening, Rankin County deputies were dispatched to the area of George Warren Road near Shiloh Road for a report of an individual wanting to commit suicide or suicide by cop.
The report also stated that the individual, identified as RANDY GILMORE, had multiple firearms. Deputies immediately began searching the area to attempt to make conduct with GILMORE. Information was received that GILMORE may have obtained a ride and was soon thereafter spotted at Todd’s Country Junction at the intersection of Shell Oil Road and Highway 18. A Rankin County deputy quickly arrived on scene and attempted to make contact with GILMORE. GILMORE then fled to a wooded area near the store.
Additional Rankin County deputies were called to the scene to assist with the search. The initial search of the area was suspended, however deputies remained in the area throughout the night. A call came in this morning that an individual was trying to flag motorists down for a ride. The caller stated that the man fit GILMORE’S description. Deputies responded to the area and were able to quickly identify GILMORE and take him in to custody without further incident.
GILMORE was transported to the Rankin County Jail and charged with disorderly conduct/failure to comply. He will appear before a Rankin County Justice Court judge for his initial appearance.

New Gameshow for my fellow Rankin residents: Meth or Mental Illness?
Perfect example of someone who needs mental health care, not to be charged with a crime. "Failure to comply"? How does that help anything?
Whatever happened with the story about the Florence firefighter who was found in his attic?
Yes this is one of the fine examples of 21st century parenting. Kids are either crazy, communists or criminals. He seems quite happy to be under arrest. So there’s very little wondering why the country has turned into a shithole. Absolute nut jobs let loose on an unsuspecting nation. And to make matters worse the federal government has turned America into East Germany and Russia. Now rv eryone including the Postal Service spying on the public without probable cause or reason. Nobody seems to care much, because it hasn’t landed them in jail or they haven’t been stopped on the highway by armed thugs. That happened to some poor bastard in Portland today. He learned the hard way that the country’s coming apart like a cheap suit. Shameful.
What the man needs is mental help. What he doesn't need is firearms.
Were they allowed to pursue? In Chokweton, they wouldn't have been.
@3:01
He was charged so they would have a reason to hold him for a mental evaluation. Without charges, he would have walked.
@3:21
Take your meds and have a nap peepaw.
Glad this thug is off the streets
Good news is he’s very happy he was caught
Ouch @3:55 you hurt me to the core man. I’m sure you know I value your opinion tight. I don’t take meds but I may have to consider them now that you think I should. But when you get older and start paying taxes you may agree with me.... or not. Perhaps when you move out of mom’s basement and grow into an adult democrat.
2:56, I'm guessing meth, the side effects of which can be fairly characterized as various mental illnesses. But, once the meth is cleared from the system, most of the "mental illnesses" often clear up.
It’s gotten to the point where you can’t camp out in this country without being harassed
I actually know this dude. He’s had mental issues in the past but nothing serious. Praying for you brother.
If he were a black dude in Jackson this blog would punish his ass.
What if I told you one of his grandmothers is Dutch but the other one is from Kenya?
Let’s hear it peokkkple!
The boy done got hold of summa that Brookhaven weed. It's soaked in coal-oil and JW Dant. When you lite it up, it will lite YOU up.
Obviously the report of his plans was incorrect or he changed his mind.
If one thinks Jackson issues Blessings look at the mental health system. Did he commit a crime? Running from police, trespassing.
Why put the mugshot online to ridicule him?
Looks like he had the time of his life though
Paranoia seems to be rampant with many feeling that goblins and what not are everywhere,"kkk". Looking at you 606.
I never smile when I have mugshots taken, unwritten rule to look mean
KF—if no problem, could you report more about Jackson murders.
We only care about the bodies, that’s it.
Would there be as much ridicule if this poor fellow were suffering from cancer? He appears to me mentally ill -- but I'm no doctor. Let's say he's merely a drug addict . . . how big a charge can a normal Christian get lording it over some pitiful creature in even worse shape than he/she is?
I sincerely hope, for the sake of the more self-righteous amongst us, that the Second Coming and its attendant separation of sheep from goats is only a myth. All the better to avoid one-way passage to the place where the worm does not die and fire remains unquenched. Oh, that's right, you pitiful fux already live in Jackson. Sorry.
4:38 - I thought for a second that your post was from a Christian perspective. Then I realized how wrong I was.
His girlfriend dumped him and he beat her up, threatened her, and threatened to kill himself. There is more to the story than is being told but he is definitely nuts.
Thank God he didn't hurt anybody, and thank God he didn't hurt himself. Maybe this will be a triggering event so that he can get treatament. Unles you've had a family member suffering from mental illness such as what this man has (and I have), you can't imagine the absolute sense of helplessness and despair his family is feeling. I'm praying for him, and I sincerely hope everyone who reads this story will take 10 seconds to say a prayer for his recovery.
The rubberban between this guy's ears has snapped .
Reading in between the lines, this is a complex story. It is really encouraging and we are very very blessed and fortunate to have a law enforcement force willing to try and save a single life--it's amazing to think they had people on the lookout and ready for an entire day trying to find this person and stop them from committing suicide.
The afterwards--arrest and charged with a crime--that's the hard problem to solve. We need to give our law enforcement more tools to do great work in the community and save lives such as these--and think about how they can be a support mechanism for people in extreme mental distress.
That all depends on your societal view--and if you value rehabilitation and restoration of a fellow human as a core value.
