JPD Chief Rashall Brackney said a stolen JPD short-barrel rifle was used in the triple homicide that took place last week in Jackson at a press conference today.
Chief Brackney said the theft took place during a auto burglary spree that took place at several apartment complexes two months ago.

The heck you say…?
Of course it was.
JPD is a joke
There was a JPD cruiser running radar on 55 today with a front headlight out. The irony.
The chief is over her head with Jackson’s crime. Jackson is beyond saving
What a dynamic duo .
She can’t even handle taking questions. Absolutely incompetent. And not just because she is a black woman. She’s just incompetent.
i've been up and down i-55 from madison into jackson 4 times today and saw 1 police car once ,got passed by multiple cars doing 80 plus, super enforcement today. all talk, no action..... word drool and collect your pay chief, buis as usual .
Truly unbelievable.
Is anyone shocked or surprised?
Ooops.
WTF did she just say?
Contradictory words and phrases in adjacent sentences.
They were 'unsuccessful' but the gun was stolen?
Total Bullshit? What would that sound like?
RaShall barks at the press to kick off the presser. Bad move. What was Horhn thinking?
stolen, or sold?
The police tell us not to leave unsecured firearms in our vehicles, but its ok when they do it
We need Frank Melton and 2 Texas Rangers to clean by out the sewer pipe of the black gang culture but…..this ideology of today’s thug culture was set in place long before Frank was Mayor and he knew it. Say what you think but it’s our own people who devised this and In my honest opinion Frank died of unnatural causes. That’s how things work in this country . And, I don’t want to go down that rabbit hole. Don’t blame it on Whitey, because yall were a target from powers above and you had no idea where it would lead.
What is shocking is the Criminal Justice Judges and prison let these thug loose time and time again. Let us get our prisons up to code and get judges who will lock these thugs away for ever.
You mean sold, and then reported stolen.
Why wasn’t an announced made 8 weeks ago when these were stolen? Small chance but maybe this could have been prevented if they had announced to the public.
This tells the world that their firearms are in the trunk and not secured with a long-gun locking device.
Law suit in 3, 2, 1
Need a gun? Just take it from a cruiser... what the hell? Cops leaving firearms in their cruisers in the parking lot of a dumpy apartment complex is just plain stupid!
Commissioner Gordon needs to use the red phone to call Batman.
Don't leave your weapons in your vehicle.
Is Dr Chief going to hold community meetings to address how to not let this happen again and see what the citizens would suggest be done??
Seems to me that officers should no longer be allowed to take their cruisers home.
Do the cops in question live in the dumpy complex?
Or do they just visit to take care of business?
The only community meetings that need to happen are those for arming the residents and teaching them marksmanship and gun safety.
Kingfish, I can't take anymore of the foolishness and incompetence of the city and its joke of an administration. Fire the public works and call Donald Trump for advice on policing the city. This act alone will bring about a 180 degree turnaround within days. Mayor, y'all need to stop running off at the mouth and start busting caps in deserving asses which will end all this barbaric behavior.
Now we know why he was let go.
The young criminals in Jackson have no more respect for JPD than they do for anybody else. They will rob them too.
5:05, Frank Melton treated gangs like his personal security detail.
3:35 PM. Is there anything you can think of that would be a better use of JPD resources than running radar on 55?
Oh, I think what you meant to say was that he was on his way to do something more substantial, as opposed to giving out tickets for people going a typical speed on an American freeway.
I’m also super impressed that you can judge people’s speed with your naked eye. That’s so impressive that it’s near unbelievable!
Kingfish, on a related note. Please do a separate subject regarding fireworks policy. I didn't sleep until the fireworks and shooting stopped last night. Each time such as 4th, New Year's Eve and Day, Labor Day, the savages set off enough enough fireworks and shooting one would think we're at war. Homes of hardworking people are burned down. It doesn't do any good to call police about this because they don't show up. Will you contact mayor Horhn and have him declare a state of emergency this morning. Got a feeling it's going to be civil unrest throughout. JXN Water, please make sure the hydrants are working. Firefighters we need you ready so please postpone the drinking until next week during the rain. This is not a joke Kingfish. I've had several family members and friends that lost everything because of this reckless behavior. Thanks for all you do to keep us informed and enlightened.
The purpose of a system is what it does.
Consider it crime stoppers.
Oh good grief! It's hard to read on July 4th , all of the negativity from some of you!
Do you not know our Revolutionary History? Surely, you at least know Civil War history! Jackson was burned ! Lots of cities and towns were severely damaged in both wars!
Surely you understand why Jackson is called " The Crossroads of the South" ? Do you think highways and geography will shift to suit your prejudices and politics? Do you not know cities, including NYC and Detroit have aged and revived more than once in our history? How many of you can afford handblown glass windows or hand painted murals or the stone and marble in our government buildings or stained -glass windows or walnut panels? Where you going move the capitol and colleges and universities and hospitals and the legislative building and Governor's Mansion?
@7:59 - Call a felon on policing… lol
No indication that these incompetents in city government even see the contempt the criminal community (a phrase city government might use) has for JPD. This is real 3rd World stuff.
So wait a minute, JPD is part of the gin trafficking “iron pipeline” - but the chief and the mayor are not taking questions? I had hoped and prayed and expected much more from this new crew heading up the city with apparently no soul left. They say sunlight is the best disinfectant. Let the sun shine in!
If you are driving 65 and someone passes you enough to feel the vacuum from the car passing, it is safe to say that car is exceeding the posted speed limit. It’s not rocket science.
JPD needs Chief Robert Johnson back! He was the best. Officer should be charged for not securing rifle properly unless pd didn’t have equipment officers needed; which is possible.
And it as covered up by the so called people in charge until they had to release it 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Think he knew her before 🙄
Exactly
