Jackson Jambalaya

Meanwhile he has let MHP do whatever they want as long as they let him push the button that makes the siren go wee woo like a 5 year old.

Bryan Bailey resign

You know you are going to jail for a LONG time

when the governor himself comments on it

and rightfully so, I know rankin has a bad rap especially with this case and now John Sullivans trial officially beginning yesterday, BUT most of us are good decent respectable people, JUST LIKE JACKSON

We all know this was a disgusting an meaningless act. However it’s really, really a shock to some of y’all when they we’re caught and pleaded guilty!

Not one of these morons had the sense to say, I ain’t taken no part in this and I am gone!

They remind me of little kids playing cops and robbers. I bet they even had a little code ring. Any self respecting law officer should have known better than to hire these little bullies. I might see one slipping through the cracks but there is no excuse for a group of them.

actually many MS law enforcement professionals are like this (bullies) because the law is on their side (implied immunity). Remember the guy that was at various public spots along the coast protesting with a sign saying to support homeless vets using his first amendment rights, and most of the police officers of the various jurisdictions were going to arrest him if he did not stop. Only the Gautier PD chief recognized the man had a right to free speech.

Officials from Rankin getting a little nervous and distancing themselves a bit?

I typically defended LEO in the past, but I hate to admit I think I have reached my limit.
I don't doubt there are still some decent cops, but yall decent ones better start shouting about the bad ones BEFORE this shit hits the fan if you want the general public to have any faith in you.
The silence is easily interpreted as tacit support of this behavior and Bailey can forget it if he thinks there are enough blindly racist conservatives in Rankin to tolerate this BS.

I’m sure Tate has received a bit of Intel about all the civil asset forfeiture. He probably knows there will be a lot more controversy to come. The Goon Squad was very profitable for the RCSO. While they didn’t do press releases for the money they seized, I’m sure it was still a substantial amount even after the Goon Squad (and anyone else) took their cut of the lucre.

11:20 Law enforcement officers are definitely not perfect. This Jeffrey Gray guy, the so called "protester" you reference, is nothing more than a traveling lawsuit creator pretending to be some simple concerned citizen worried about homeless vets. This could not be any further from the truth. He goes to small town city halls around the southeast trying to provoke a response from any city employee. If he gets his way it will be from a policeman. Then he does one of his YouTube video for his dumbed down haters. The law firms he works with will file a lawsuit with hopes of extracting a settlement prior to any court trial. One judge in Florida called Gray's actions "a baiting gesture meant to achieve personal financial gain and is nothing more than a scam". Gautier was warned about this scammer prior to his arrival.

wrong again tater...........

its mississippi's FEDERAL criminal justice system that works........

not the state's............

had this matter been left to the state, the goon squad would still be operating

Sheriff did know or should have known. Lower echelon LEOs/Deputies in Rankin County who suspected may have been intimidated into silence, fearing violence to themselves or their families.

I personally know a K9 patril deputy with dog "Voodoo" who makes a lot of drug busts on I20. He is an effective, intelligent, honorable even gentle human being. He should be the new sherrif.

The problem with this "Goon Squad" is that they have lost their compassion for their fellow man. The majority who wear the badge have pure hearts of servitude and will continue to remain vigilant in serving the communities in which they live and work in. What happened is a stain that sets back the LE profession decades. I urge you to support the TRUE peacekeepers, the ones still out there weathering this storm trying to pick up the pieces moving forward. And yes....my son is a law enforcement officer and I'm quoting him.

Yes @anoymous 1:08. The federal criminal Justice system did the right thing. This state would never have lifted a finger. Rankin County has been getting away with abuse of citizens for a very long time.

1:29 and the world. The feds will be all over this. ALL OVER IT. A perfect narrative for the democrat game plan. Get ready.

That the gubner finally issued a statement only proves he reads this blog and saw the many posts criticizing his silence.

This is not the first time these officers committed a crime. This was not their first rodeo. The entire Rankin police and sheriff offices need to be investigated by the FBI and this racism and injustice in this state needs to be put to a halt. All the dirty deeds up to the governor needs to be investigated. Mississippians deserve better. The cops who uphold the law and were friends with these officers need to choose a side and stop with the blind support of the blue. If you know this is going on and don’t stop it or report it your guilty as well and deserve to be fired. This mess keeps Mississippi in the 50s and 60s mentality. No wonder we score last for everything. Our Government is nothing more than a bunch of good ole boys carrying out their own type of justice, same guys that love to claim that we are a land of laws. What a freaking joke. Embarrassing for the entire state and I bet everyone of these officers is an upstanding christain in their church. Do better.

They did not wake up and decide that for their first act of abuse of power to employ dildos.
This is a disgusting act that they have fine tuned, abusing many...without a doubt.
I hope they know the residents despise them and want them to rot in prison.

As another noted, you dumb racist rednecks have given the liberal media world the story it craved to support the narrative they push.

You deserve to have your lives ruined and I hope you cry yourselves to sleep in a cell for the rest of your days. Hope it was worth it. All you had to do was be bare-bones decent. Not saviors...just decent humans. You are useless failures and I hope Bailey knows he is going down too.

8:55. If Bailey thinks he will survive this, as much as I personally like him, he needs a brain enema. The captain goes down with the ship, and all of these rednecks and anybody aware of this sick, SICK crap are going down. The DOJ will have the deposition floodlights in the eyes of every swinging dick out there.

I have experienced 2 federal investigations myself. These morons have no idea and the house of cards will implode and fingers will tire from pointing.

I am with you 10:33. I always like Bailey personally but that does not mean I will defend him here. He damn sure deserves to go down with this ship.

And interesting about your personal experience with the Feds. I figured they were a thorough and relentless bunch, and I genuinely hope they do wear these goons out. All of them.

A lot of old cases are getting examined by the FBI. More goons will be charged.

The Governor did not issue a statement per social media or a blast email. WLBT and this website contacted his office for a statement. That is the statement he sent us.

I'm sure there are a few people wishing they had signed up to run for sheriff. There is where the chin rubbing starts. You would think as bad as this is more people in the law enforcement community would have known about the goon squad. Is all of Rankin Law enforcement complicit or complacent in this? Did the rest of the law enforcement community think they were going to continue to get away with this type stuff? For that many people to do that type stuff and think they were going to get away with it is crazy? There is no way the sheriff did not know about this. NO WAY. I can see a federal indictment looming in the future for some people.

10:33 - It's not at all difficult to survive a deposition, assuming the deposed has walkin' around sense.
