Here we go again. Grejaun Allen was out on bond for a murder indictment when he allegedly killed LaJarvis Ruffin on June 19.
JPD charged Allen with murder Wednesday after he allegedly shot Ruffin to death on Shaw Road. However, JPD had charged the suspect with murder way back in 2019. Unfortunately, Jackson Municipal Court Judge Taurean Buchanan set his bond at a grand $75,000.
A Hinds County grand jury indicted Allen for murder in February 2020. The indictment charges the defendant:
did willfully and feloniously, without the authority oflaw, kill another human being, Michael Woods, with deliberate design to effect the death of Michael Woods, at 3016 Enochs Street in Jackson, MS, by shooting Michael Woods multiple times with an unknown caliber firearm during a verbal altercation
The case was assigned to Hinds County Circuit Court Judge Faye Peterson. Judge Peterson has continued the case at least a dozen times. The most recent continuance took place on May 15. The Court set his trial for September 22.
Catch & release! Squawk!

The Judicial Review Board should have sway over judges who continually release murderers so they can murder again. But I guess it’s a lot like the bar association.
Hinds judges have to take care of their home boys.
Jackson has turn into a “Road Warrior “ film
Way to go Faye! You are as big of a failure as Antard.
Who is this damn state is serious about forcing the hard steps required to fix Jackson and the totally dysfunctional Hinds Justice system?
Mr. Speaker and Democrat Delbert. Both you nimrods are advertising here. How about getting off your asses and fixing this totally broken situation? DO SOMETHING! People are dying from the status quo you are tolerating.
since you redneck hot shots know so much, tell all us regular citizens who is the jackson municipal court judge that signed that mittimus that you have on display.
maybe the fish can help, he seems to know everything.
and im sure he will now better than to publish this comment.
At what point can the judge be held liable for her actions? Where is the accountability?
Praise Faye, from whom all blessings flow . . .
Isn’t is safe to assume that this is what the people of Jackson want?
Hinds County criminal injustice system
It's right there in the second paragraph, dummy. Try reading the post.
Seriously; What does the black community think about this sort of thing. I see dozens of them commenting on, for example, WLBT's gossip page that, "It's time for all this killin' to stop", but I never see a word about the 'catch and release' program and how it contributes to the larger problem.
Catch and release is an encouragement to further crime. How difficult is that to understand? Where the hell is the outrage?
I'd like to know what the case load is for our judges. Do we have enough?
Do we have enough legal aid lawyers to provide counsel to the accused?
Did a bondsman provide the bail?
Do we have enough jail space to hold the accused without bond?
I'm for murder suspect not being eligible for bond/ bail but frankly wealthy murder suspects and celebrities make bail all the time and get to stay out of jail.
Also, blame your State legislators and Supreme Court judges if you don't like the laws of Mississippi and how they are applied. And, blame those you elect to Congress. If they aren't smart enough to write or read a law isn't well thought out. Do you think they are actually reading and understanding all the laws they vote upon?
Well, the DA has bragged that his is only a part time job. And they’ve been loaning out one ADA to Lafayette County for god knows why.
But KF, you can't really read that signature on the chicken-scratched order so it doesn't really count. I love the "oh by the way" at the end about having no contact. But I'm just another redneck hotshot.
