Capitol Police arrest two juveniles in connection to over 20 auto burglaries in Jackson 

Within just a few hours, Capitol Police officers spotted the stolen vehicle traveling on Pear Orchard Road and conducted a traffic stop. The driver and passenger, both juveniles, were wearing clothing matching the descriptions of the subjects, and stolen items were recovered from the vehicle. The two were apprehended at the scene with no further incident.

if they only knew how to lock their cars.
I guess that their high school isn't back in session yet, or employer gave them today off?
I bet the two juveniles were upstanding young men who just had a desire toward a higher education.
Sucks that this happened but man, how refreshing is Capitol PD? Hopefully people will learn to keep their mischief out of their district.
What did Hohrn call the Capitol Police? A “necessary evil”. Lord help Jackson
Meanwhile, JPD taking a nap.
Attn. 10:52 a.m.,you don’t “break” into an unlocked automobile.
youths on a path to feralhood-
Is it my imagination or have the Capitol PD expanded their patrol range responsibilities? Good job!
No matter. The Hinds County justice system (I use that term loosely) will train them that there are few if any consequences for criminal activities.
Good job, Capitol PD!
If you lock your car in Jackson, you end up paying out the ass for broken windows.
"Breaking and Entering" has nothing to do with broken windows.
I believe July 1st their jurisdiction increased to county line road.
Auntie: They are gooda boys and just needed a car to get to bible study.
July 1st it extended to Northside Dr.. Probably further north in the future. County Line area needs it.
@1:40. The problem is that the number of Capitol PD officers hasn't increased. If they keep up the expansions, their response time will be as bad as JPD's. What made CPD so appealing at first was that they saturated the initial CCID because they had lots of officers for a relatively small area. They could probably use another 100 officers to police their entire area effectively.
Who funds the CP?
Lemme have your home address. Hopefully one of your doors or windows will be unlocked someday and I can help myself to the free goodies inside.
Because hey, if it was not locked so...no crime right?
The little ๐ฉs
Taxpayers.
The state…Capitol PD is a state agency
When will legislation be brought forth to allow the public to know the names of the criminal juveniles that commit crimes? They didn’t hide the name of Carly Gregg did they? So, that can’t be used as an argument because it was murder. How do you know these two kids would not have killed someone or what other crimes they have committed? I think their names need to be made public. Why not? They are a detriment to the public and even though we were paying for their existence before the crimes we are now on the hook to pay for their existence behind bars due to their chances of becoming career criminals.
Gregg was certified as an adult by the Court. The laws change for juvies when they commit violent crimes.
Why do State taxpayers have to fund Jackson’s police department…and their water system. What other cities get that much help?
It's a shame! People at work and school, attempting to better themselves and contribute to society, only to be victimized by those who are not. Here's a solution for juvenile non-violent crime: develop a program that requires juveniles to WORK picking up trash on city streets, post on Facebook and you tube; assign a mentor/church willing to provide ongoing support and counseling to the offender and family; require offenders to speak at elementary, middle and high schools, detailing their crimes, punishment and what they've learned; require them to get part-time jobs and contribute to victims fund; require them to attend classes or get GED;, monitor a minimum of 2 years after completion of program. If no legal infractions during that time, erase criminal record. Enough with excuses of poverty and single parent homes. It's about accountability, and doing something constructive to change the trajectory of young lives that without intervention will progress to committing more serious crimes.
