How Costly Can Road Rage Be?

 A woman who shot at another car during  a road rage incident yesterday on I-220 earned herself a $2 million bond in Jackson Municipal Court today.  

JPD arrested Angelic Bernard yesterday and charged her with attempted felony aggravated assault and aggravated drive-by shooting.  A woman was driving to work yesterday on I-220 around 11 AM when Bernard allegedly began shooting at her car.  The shots penetrated the vehicle's rear door.

JPD managed to track down Bernard thanks to information provided by the victim.  Bernard said her friend shot at the victim but quickly changed her story to say the shooter was her boyfriend.  JPD quickly determined she was not telling the truth and the rest is history.  

Municipal Court Judge Jeffrey Reynolds called Bernard  dangerous as he set her bond at $1 million per charge. 

The 24 year-old Bernard is a McDonald's employee.  She already faces a simple assault charge for an incident at Wendy's.

I remember when things were so simple at McDonald's. They had hamburgers, cheeseburgers, fries, shakes, chocolate or vanilla made the old way, and sodas. Employees didn't go crazy.

Thankful to the Jackson Municipal Court for this high bond!

I’ve complained for years about the purposeful allowance of lawlessness by Democrats so areas like Jackson can remain a one party city, so now it’s time to give them credit for this high bond.

Had a brother in law who worked at the McDonalds (Maybe the first one in Jackson) on Highway 80 just west of where the J-Train offices are on Valley Street and H-80. back in the 1960s. He par fried then later second time fried the really good old style Mc Fries, cooked burgers and waited on customers, sometimes absolutely by himself and never shot at anyone. Well, eventually he became a cop and did shoot a guy one night, but the guy had it coming, because he fired first, so I am going to say it didn't count. He did get altimers and is now gone RIP.

Good for judge on the high bond.

All Righty Then said...

WLBT: The judge meant it!

"An attorney for Bernard asked for a lower bond, saying the 24-year-old McDonald’s employee supports a four-year-old son, and said she would be open to having her client submit to GPS monitoring.
She also told Reynolds the bond was so high that she couldn’t post it, much less, Bernard.

“I couldn’t either, and that’s the point,” Reynolds said. “She shot multiple times at a random lady. To let her get out and do this again [and possibly kill someone] ... She’s not going to be out on my watch.”"

I'm sad that we have to applaud a judge for doing what should be the bare minimum, but I agree. Good job.

How many fast food places would close if they weren’t allowed to hire people with records?

Good news for her is when this quiets down a bit, a county judge will without much public awareness lower the bond amount and she will find a bondsman to get her out on a payment plan- Seems like she might could use some mental health treatment but nobody offers that free short of Region 8- I find it stupid that these same Jxn judges will give a murder suspect cheaper bonds

@2:36 PM Have you ever watch the movie The Founder starring Michael Keaton? Well, Ray Kroc was a milk shake machine salesman who stumbled in the McDonald’s brothers’ operation. Ray Kroc wouldn’t believe how bad McDonald’s has become. Or that they dont even have functioning ice cream machines in most locations.

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.
