Jackson Jambalaya

All i know is if I did that shit at my job my boss would put his foot up my ass then fire me

COJ in a nutshell-

The Jackson police officer was working private security in a city police cruiser?

"Residentially challenged" is hilarious

all of this is a nothingburger. It is about as common as seeing that Reservoir police woman on her damn phone while driving.

It's allowed by state statute. Off-duty Sheriff Deputies do the same thing in Jackson.

If so that statute violates the state constitution against using your government position for outside pecuniary benefit.

Attn 11:42 a.m. please quote the state statute.

So, this off duty officer is being paid by Deville Plaza to work private security, while in his police cruiser (city property) and undoubtedly sitting with the car running and burning gas (on the city's dime)? This must be standard practice with JPD. I see this happening in Fondren frequently as well at private businesses.

Don't their computers also display inside their eyelids?

You can complain about using city equipment while working private jobs all you want

until you stop at the quik trip to get gas, step in a pile of shit, and tyrone biggums asks you for 50 cents

then all of the sudden you will be VERY OK with them doing it

Miss. Code section 25-11-17 allows certified law enforcement officers to use their uniforms, weapons, vehicles etc., to perform off duty work. Look it up.

MS. Code 17-25-11, correction, look it up

"We have on several occasions taken the view that a municipal police officer cannot use city equipment when that officer is 'moonlighting' as a private security officer."

Jackson is PURE SH*T from top to bottom, from side to side. Let it rot. The voters get what they deserve.

He got sleepy after eating those 12 free donuts.

Somebody get on down to city hall and ask for a copy of the minutes...

"The governing authority of a municipality must approve of such use of the uniform, official weapon and vehicle by municipal law enforcement officers by act spread upon the minutes of such board and approved by the chief executive."

SOME of you, i.e. August 21, 2025 at 1:48 PM, do not know that said voters have voted out the main problem, that being Chockwe Antar. IF you lived and voted in Jackson, you would know this. Keep your opinion and wishes on our city to yourself, as our new mayor continues to undo what has been done.

At least the Officer is not on Welfare and is doing the same thing his superiors are doing and probably still do! No it doesn’t make it right! But Chief give the Officer a break! What is this officers name? Im sending him a jar of ole Smokey moonshine, that will certainly boost his spirits!

Pay them a decent salary and they might not have to work two jobs.

I think an argument could be made that per the Mississippi Constitution the state or municipalities are prohibited from making "donations or gratuities" to individuals or objects without consideration, and that the costs of operating a state or local vehicle is an unjust enrichment of the benefactor received from the state.

Nope 2:34.
I grew up in that once great small city and can say whatever I damn well please.

And regarding your comment:
" as our new mayor continues to undo what has been done".

LOL, I hear Dems say that a lot.
Please explain the origin of that phrase.

I think it's either from an MSNBC Kamahla Harris (Happy Hour) interview ... or it may have come from "Game of Thrones".
Sounds like something House Greyjoy said when they almost drowned folks in their hazing rituals.

" our new mayor"

Mayor Horne has now been on the job long enough to stop this crap.

That dude passed out on his City Hall "Garden bench" speaks volumes on how serious he is about cleaning up Jackson.

You could write a crime novel on this. Call it "Drool on the Badge."

2:34- Meet the new boss…same as the old boss.

Jackson will remain a third world crap hole.

Imagine what it could be, unburdened by what has been. But, they just have hard time learning anything at all.

Give this Officer an award, he stood by and saw many criminals he arrested back on the street before his shift ended! He witnessed many felons given a slap on the wrist by Hinds County Judges! The man is tired let him rest! This is between him and his employer! When I see him he can get in my car and rest. When are the officers in blue going to rest with the nonsense going on in Jackson and Hinds County, damn they should be Rewarded! The other Law Enforcement Officers in the Metro areas praise them for their courage and determination for even applying as a Jackson Police Officer.

How in the hell you can see in the officers vehicle and cannot see in a criminals vehicle because of illegal tint ! Go figure, it’s pure a simple bullshit.

2:40, would you please market your moonshine somewhere else? I'm sick of reading your spam.

If the 'new' Mair were to come down hard on this sort of activity, every preacher in the county would have his name in they mouth on Sunday, next. And that means multiple congregations would rebel again the Mair at the next voting opportunity.

Please let Capitol Police take over. I appreciate the Mississippi State Capitol Police for their unwavering professionalism, integrity, and dedication to serving our community. Day after day, they carry out their duties with honor and respect, ensuring safety and peace for all. Under the leadership of Chief Bo Luckett, whose character and commitment set a strong example, the Capitol Police have continued to uphold the highest standards of law enforcement. Chief Luckett and his officers are not only outstanding in their service, but also genuine people who truly care about those they protect. Their hard work and integrity do not go unnoticed, and our community is stronger and safer because of them.
