The Ulta Thieves

 The Madison Police Department issued the following statement. 

On February 14, 2025 at approximately 1:00PM Madison police officers responded to ULTA Beauty located at 175 Grandview Blvd in regards to three individuals that shoplifted from the store and left in a silver BMW south bound on Grandview Blvd. A Madison patrol officer located the vehicle on Madison Avenue near the West Frontage Road where a traffic stop was conducted on the suspect vehicle. The silver BMW immediately pulled over where all three suspects were taken into custody without incident. Officers on scene recovered all merchandise that was stolen from ULTA where it was then documented and returned to the store after ULTA management pressed charges on all three suspects involved.

The total value of the items stolen was valued at $2,276.00. Officers were also able to recover several bags of stolen merchandise that could be possibly linked to shopliftings in other municipalities in Mississippi as well as other states. Investigators with the Madison Police Department are currently working to identify those jurisdictions and additional charges are possible through those agencies. The suspects are identified as Randolph Joseph (age 25), Shira Thompson (age 41), and Joseph Mitchell (age 60), all of Hollywood, FL.

All three suspects are being charged with Felony Shoplifting and Felony Conspiracy to Commit a Crime. Thompson also has a hold placed on her by Henry County, GA for Felony Shoplifting. Joseph, Thompson, and Mitchell will be housed at the Madison County Detention Center as they await their initial appearance in the City of Madison Municipal Court. All three suspects case will be presented to the Madison County Grand Jury by District Attorney John ‘Bubba’ Bramlett.

I wonder if they’ve ever had a job in their life.

All from Hollywood Florida, just targeting Madison Ms. This isn’t the first time an out of state group has targeted the area. What’s up with that?

In their defense they needed some cosmetics!

All of them look dumb as dirt. Lock 'em up and throw away the key.

Well, it's getting close to mowing time, maybe they can trim the median on I-55 from County Line to the Hwy 16 exit. Shoplifting won't be so much fun after spending July on a weedeater.

No blessings in Madison, fools.

Ha! These three rocket surgeons walking into the Madison Ulta store just scream - shoplifters!!

This is not the first time this Ulta store has been targeted by out of state shoplifters.

9:46 most likely just hitting targets with easy access to the interstate for a quick getaway is my guess

Shoplifting rings travel the interstates and steal from the same stores in different areas, Madison takes shoplifting serious so the stores take it serious too.

There are several 'low rent' storefronts in that area that never should have been allowed in town. And it's got nothing to do with proximity to the interstate.

This used to be a very safe area to shop

It still is. At least this wasn’t an armed robbery. I’m not sure Ulta really qualifies a low rent business. Someone clearly does not shop for cosmetics.

Anonymous said...

Low Rent has nothing to do with the cost of the products therein. This is the third time black 'tourists' have hit this same store. To what do you attribute that, genius? Usually one compliant, black, female employee either in the back or at the counter. No white adult male customers in the place, ever.

Just another Sally Beauty Supply on steroids with three-inch eyelashes.

How would having "white adult male customers in the place" in Ulta deter shoplifting?

I now I don't know how to reconcile the number of white men I saw shopping in Walmart the same day I watched a man boldly steal about $100 in batteries around Christmas. He must not know the rules.

@12:43 What the hell is a "rocket srgeon" ?

PrayForJackson said...

They look sad. I wonder if they feel bad about stealing or if they just feel bad because they got caught.

12:10. The employees reported the theft. It wasn’t an employee who facilitated anything. I know one of the folks who works in store and briefly interacted with one of the thieves when he asked her a question. She was unaware of theft until later. And yes, there are white make customers in the place. Most of the shoppers are women, of course, but white men do shop there. Stop making up “facts.” As far as tourist thieves, they target cosmetic stores near interstate highways. They aren’t hard to find on Google Maps. It doesn’t take a genius to figure that out. You definitely aren’t in the genius category, though.

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.
