A star graduate of the Hinds County Catch & Release Program is finally in prison.
Jermaine Bradley pleaded guilty to three counts of sexual battery and one count of gratification of lust in March. The victim was between 14 and 16 years old. Bradley was 20 years old when he molested the minor.
Hinds County Assistant District Attorney Sharon Spencer recommended Bradley get the maximum five-year sentence with two years suspended and three years served on house arrest. Circuit Judge Debra Gibbs approved the recommendation.
There is just one problem: the sentence is illegal. Section 47-5-1003 of the Mississippi Code states:
(1) An intensive supervision program may be used as an alternative to incarceration for offenders who are not convicted of a crime of violence pursuant to Section 97-3-2 as selected by the court and for juvenile offenders as provided in Section 43-21-605. Any offender convicted of a sex crime shall not be placed in the program.
Section 97-3-2 defines sexual battery as a crime of violence.
Nevertheless, Bradley went to the house - his house to serve his sentence - as he completed his education in the Hinds County Catch & Release Program.
It wasn't long before Bradley got in trouble again. JPD arrested Jermaine Bradley last week and charged him with statutory rape, aggravated assault, sexual exploitation of a minor, and felon in possession of a gun. Bradley allegedly shot his girlfriend in the stomach.
The victim was 22 year old Bradley's 16 year-old girlfriend. Police testified the relationship began when she was 15 years old and he recorded their sexual encounters on his phone. Hence the exploitation of a minor charge (Can we say "child porn"?).
Bradley confessed to it all as the Jackson Municipal Court denied him bond.
The perp is still in custody but no longer resides in Raymond after MDOC apparently came and got its boy.
Special Circuit Judge James Bell is holding a hearing on the revocation of house arrest next week.
Stay tuned.

No you retard. It is not child porn. This is why you arent a real journalist. it is CSAM or Child Sexual Abuse Materials because 1.) It doesn’t have to be pornographic to be CSAM, and 2.) pornography is a legal industry in the USA.
Words have very specific meaning. And you practice “yellow journalism” at best and closer to a immature little gossip blog in reality.
...."Squawk!"
Funny how you get mad at me for calling videotaping a minor having sex child porn yet don't get mad over this molester being on house arrest when he should have been behind bars.
to 10:32.............the fish didn't just poke you....he harpooned you.
Any thoughts as to why 'house arrest' other than prison. Looks like she visited him while he was at home with his ankle bracelet.
@10:44 Funny how you use strawman logical fallacies after you asked the question in your own blog post and I simply answered it for you.
This is how you always reply to comments you don’t like. With some ridiculous strawman argument. Of course this creep shouldn’t have been on house arrest. His charred corpse should’ve been hanging from a tree like the good old days.
We used to do that because these animals can’t be reasoned with. Overwhelming violence, from the white majority, triggering primal fears and superstitions, are the only thing that have ever kept them obedient. Once that fear of ‘us’ was removed, you get the society we have today.
Of course you will censor this because you care more about ad revenue from state.gov than the truth. Because, again, you aren’t a real journalist.
He had sex with an underage girl and filmed it. I think that qualifies. And what difference does it make what you call it?? This guy is a piece of shit and needs to be locked in a cage. Porn is legal in the US, but not porn with underage girls. Would you be ok with him CSAMing you underage daughter or sister?
“The perp is still in custody” So just transferred? Slow news day. Let us know when this bastard is resententenced
KF - thanks for posting 10:32 / 11:18's unedited commentary so that folks see what kind of !@#$ you get to deal with on a daily basis.
Horrible & shame on Debra Gibbs!
Notoriously and 100% reliably in my life-experience, anyone I have ever met that uses the word "strawman" is a narcissistic douchebag.
You people are seriously stupid. You somehow equate using the correct legal term for CSAM as condoning the creation of CSAM. That is beyond retarded. Really?
Replying to 12:46: I never cared for acronyms but had to memorize a hundred or more in a prior life. Sounds like you're infatuated with them.
And, borrowing from 12:45 (that's probably YOU), anyone who still uses the word 'retarded' in polite conversation is an insensitive douchebag.
10:32 - I'd accuse you of being intellectually dishonest, but apparently the word "intellect" doesn't apply to you in any context.
I believe those that are acting angry with the misuse of certain words are furious their friend got caught.
Friend of a friend of a friend...
Someone should probably check his hard drive...
Wow, 11:18! I'm sensing you found a nice, cool place, out of the rain, from which to post all these posts! Normally, threads like this draw Rent-a-trolls and AI bots, from far-distant locales. But I think you're local talent - local, staggering-around-Downtown-mumbling talent. Incoherent gibberish like yours, can only happen in a place as special as Jackson.
With that Parchman haircut his new name is”Slick”
