Teens Arrested in Rankin Shootings

Rankin County Sheriff Bryan Bailey issued the following statement. 

Shortly before midnight on Tuesday, June 1, the Rankin County Sheriff’s Department received a call from a citizen who stated her car was shot while driving on Highway 471 near Coon Hunters Road.  Deputies immediately responded and began searching the area.  Shortly after the first call another citizen reported that their car had also been shot in the same area around the same time.  Deputies continued to search area in an attempt to locate the shooter.  Early this morning deputies located other bullet holes that seem to point to the direction of a nearby house.  Deputies questioned the homeowner and were able to locate the firearm believed to have been used in the shooting incidents.  

Three juvenile males were detained in connection with the shooting.  Two of the juveniles will be transported to the Rankin County Juvenile Detention Center where the will appear in front of Rankin County Youth Court Judge Tom Broome. 

The third will be charged as an adult and held at the Rankin County Adult Detention Center.   Rankin County District Attorney Bubba Bramlett will bring him before Rankin County Court Judge Kent McDaniel for an initial appearance.

Any mention of what the yutes are being charged with? That’s some serial killer behavior.

I don't see why parents who give under-aged children firearms could not be held criminally liable if those children use the firearms to commit crimes. Certainly such parents could be held liable in a civil lawsuit.

KF—any information on the high school graduate shot and killed at the Texaco gas station on Medgar Evers Blvd a couple days ago?

Don't worry yourself @2:19--Rankin County should and will come down hard on these lawbreakers: there will be no "blessing" for them. Much of the widespread frustration (as expressed in multiple comments when a crime is reported on this site) over chronic lawlessness in J'town is based on the premise that nothing (or at least not nearly enough) will be done to curtail it. Go get a latte at your favorite place in the Fondren and think about it.

This didn’t happen in Fondren or “J’town,” as you call it. Go grab yourself a 32 ounce keystone light from the gas station down the road from your trailer park, swamp, or wherever you live and think about it.

4:53 was in such a hurry to post a snarky comment they didn’t even realize how incorrect and stupid they sound. Nobody ever said it happened in fondren. Read before you remove all doubt about yourself.

4:53 we can’t buy 32oz singles in Rankin County...so there’s that.

@8:16 - understand your quandray. So I'll help you and your PHS math a little; settle for two 16 ounce ones. (That's the regular size you see most often.)

You don’t get it. Our blue laws in Rankin require the purchase of a 6 pack or larger. And it must be carried out in a bag so as not to frighten the pearl clutchers. I can buy a 6 pack of 32oz beers. But I can’t buy one or 2.

The Shell station at the corner of Grants Ferry and Spillway has a greater craft beer selection than anywhere in Fondren. I went to a fish fry out that way last weekend and they had kimchi instead of coleslaw. No lie. My cousin's brother's uncle is the manager out there at the Home Depot in Brandon and he said they can't keep bidets in stock. Y'all act all bad, driving around in your F150s, but everybody knows there's jasmine tea in that Yeti in the cupholder.

Glad nobody was hurt. In New Orleans years ago a kid dropped a red brick through my windshield, can still see his smiling face. Nobody hurt thankfully. In NC working as a public health RN while visiting a needy sick old lady my wife had her car shot.
Commit crimes alone and never change you r first lie. Advise my great uncle gave me.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
