The Capitol Police issued the following statement.
Capitol Police have arrested 23-year-old Cleon Walker in connection to the Daiquiri Bar shooting that occurred on August 17, 2024 in Jackson, Mississippi.Walker has been charged with murder and five counts of aggravated assault.
Walker has quite the criminal records. A check of Hinds County court records reveals:
* March 2017 Arrested for armed robbery. Bond set at $100,000. Indicted in June 2017. District Attorney dropped the case in 2019 after the complainant disappeared.
* July 2017. Arrested for armed robbery. Bond set at $50,000. Indicted in September 2017. District Attorney dropped the case in 2019 after the state said it could not find the complainant.
* July 2019 Indicted for simple assault on a law enforcement officer. Circuit Judge Faye Peterson reduced the felony charge to a misdemeanor simple assault on a law enforcement officer in September 2021.
Kingfish note: Good job to the Capitol Police. Now, when will the city file a nuisance lawsuit to shut down the Daiquiri Bar once and for all?

Thanks for all you do for America, Cleon
The city will do nothing so as not to disturb their carefully constructed Kush culture. Just let the ABC and Health Dept take away all licenses.
Capitol police is “gettin it did “
Who are Cleon's parents. A study of them might shed some light on why Cleon is Cleon.
The next crime hot spot downtown is the Mexican restaurant on State Street between Pascagoula and Tombigbee. Every Monday night there is a mob out front. This past Monday they decided to carjack a person that was simply leaving work. It is simply a relocation of the mob from the defunct daiquiri bar.
Wow! I LOVE the Art Deco poster!!! It's really on-theme for that end of Downtown, where the gaudiesque (Spanish Art Deco) Enoch Building (Standard Life) should have inspired an entire Art Deco district. The re-do of the Mayflower is on-theme, too, so this is exciting.
Not just the diagonal framing devices, but also the homoerotic use of an heroic muscular male figure, along with a perfectly-round-thus-neoclassical official insignia, evoke 'Stile fascista' posters contemporary with the construction of the Enoch Building.
Note that the Perp's hair, recalls the highly-textural Enoch Building's thematic crenellations.
I'm "a Key 1", colorwise, but most Mississippians, of both primary races, are solidly 'Key 2'. Primary Colors, clear colors, and absolute neutrals, don't look good on or near them, and they are flattered-by, and gravitate-to, camo colors/olives/russets/tans/muddied versions of primaries. And so I applaud the knocked-down blue - almost a Lapis Lazuli - and a red which has been tweaked to become Vermillion.
My designers tried to do that, with the colors on several Mississippi projects, before I moved into other (more governable) markets, but then the outparcels would go to entities with their own colorways, and color harmony would go awry. So, it's gratifying to see this beautiful poster. Hopefully, it's actually printed-on-glossy, and is THE BEGINNING OF A SERIES. Could be collectible...
Cleon, Cleon, Cleon, where did you parents, err parent, go wrong
"Cleon, Cleon, Cleon, where did you parents, err parent, go wrong"
I wouldn't even attempt to guess the "where" but I'll take "23 years and 9 months ago" for the "when" if that is still available in betting pool.
After two armed robberies there was an opportunity to finally see justice served and Faye Peterson blew it. Thanks Faye.
Gotta love the “Pray For Me” chest tattoo. I don’t see how a person gets that scary looking in only 23 years. I can only imagine what he and his rap sheet will look like at 40.
