That was fast. They caught the thief in about the same time it takes Jackson police to get to the crime scene.
Smile! You're on Candid Camera!
1:43 True and funny.
1:43 Why should JPD care, when the Mayor and the DA don’t! A waste of JPD patrol officers time and energy walking down alleged criminals!
I have a good friend that is a JPD officer for over 20 years. I thought his work ethic/behavior was lackadaisical, but now I know why! Lack of interest and leadership from higher ups!
2:07 and sad
Thoughtfully written report. I'm so glad the suspect was 'detained'.
Dumbass! All that he had to do was walk across county line road and no problem! Scott Free!
It’s nice to see good police work done without enhanced interrogation techniques with milk, sex toys, and firearms.
