Trollfest '09
Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.
Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).
Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.
Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".
In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.
In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.
Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.
Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!
This is definitely a Beaver production.

That place is completely out of control. The staff there, most of them at least, have little training in corrections and have no idea what to do. The huge turnover in personnel was a disaster and is a big factor in what is happening now. This isn't about the condition of the building, its that the new regime is incompetent. I predict that the feds start an investigation soon. I predict they will not be allowed to house state prisoners [means money lost the only bad side to that]. The fact is that the new sheriff cannot vouch for the safety of prisoners, visitors, medical staff; and even the judges, staff, and attorneys that regularly have court hearings down there.
No one should worry. Lieutenant Robert Graham is an expert on law enforcement.
Where is Mac when we really need him
Dollar to a donut sez Graham called the meeting. He was so front and center on the news today in his coat and tie, furrowed brow, hoping a reporter would buttonhole him for comments. The guy has become more of a publicity hound than LaRita. But, yes, incompetence rules.
Only because now that he's gerrymandered his district for his continued safe feeding at the public trough the egomaniac Graham has set his sights on higher office.
Graham has been living for decades as an imposter. Nothing has changed. The Kenyan is the roadmap.
Mac failed to allow T-rone to spend one day helping transition. Mac hired crap and it is still there.
Well, we've been hearing the place was run by the Inmates-guess this removes all doubt. Let's see, 1 inmate caused all this unrest,flooded the place,kept lots of Law Enforcement Officers tied up for HOURS and the demolished the place. Seems that several things are being Accomplished in this. First,Jackson is forced to House their own Prisoners-Second,those Doors that Never Locked don't even matter anymore. Third,somebody now has an Insurance claim because of an Inmate to BUILD A NEW JAIL--bet there is Thinking-Posturing going on now, Fourth, bet Rankin nor Madison Counties will ever get a THIN DIME for this project.
I beg to differ...Sheriff Mac offered to put yo sheriff on payroll during the budget process so he could see first hand what he would have to work with but yo sheriff turned him down.
Mac failed to allow T-rone to spend one day helping transition. Mac hired crap and it is still there.
PLEASE ... The man has had more than enough time to make change ... especially considering the high dollar playas he hired to make his own mark ... you sound like the whiny Kenyan.
Tyrone was to busy furnishing his office and getting new vehicle for his JPD staff Yo Sheriff is a joke. Please get this crook out of Office in 2015.
I had no idea Mac ran this jail down so bad. I regret that I supported him for so long.
I don't recall the jail being ransacked under Mac,Yo sherrif fired all of Mac's people and replaced them with his crud. He promised half of Jackson a job while he was running
The jail has been a dump since before it was opened.
I'm really surprised you aren't on Wordpress yet Kingfish. You'll be so much happier there. Anderson is pinching himself over the glee of the move.
In Jesus' name.
7:27 pm In reference to your regrets, maybe you should regret that Tyrone has allowed more damage to be done to the facility in 7 months than McMillin allowed in the 20 years that the he was in office. What is regretful is that we will now have to take the tax burden of jail repairs that are needed because Yo sheriff either has no idea how to run a jail or is of the mind set that those in his custody can just be locked in the pod and left unsupervised with no concern for the safety of other inmates or for the facility he is responsible for. The building has been a problem for 20 years but was staffed to maintain order and safety. Hinds county jail= home of the "cage free" inmates and 12 plus hour stand offs. Glad no one was seriously hurt "this time".
Yo sherf T-Bone is the one that has run the jail down. And as he so likes to point out, even under Mac the jail maintenance was still under the county. There is hardly any of Mac's people left and that is why the place is going to shit. T-Bone has wanted to hire all his JPD friends and pay them more than ANY of Mac's people made. His secretary alone makes $4300 a month, thats $51,600 a year. For sitting around keeping up with his kids doctor's appointments and answering the phones. The warden that bes suppoused to run the jail makes $54,000 a year. He is one of T-Bone's buddies from JPD and look at the job he be doin. T-Bone wants all his buddies to make the big bucks but us guards make nothin. He likes to talk big to churches about raises and what he is doing for us, but he hasn't done a thing. Hell he has hired on people in unnecessary spots like an extra HR woman (always was a two person jobs now it is a 3) because it was his secretary's sister. GUess what? She makes close to $600 more a month than the woman that has done it for 10 years! T-Bone likes to brag about how the "good ole boy" system is gone... It isn't, if you be one of his buddies you'll get hired on for high pay and low work. He uses the "good ole boy" system more than MAC even did. That is why the department is in the shitter and more people are leaving everyday. We have people come in to be guards that work one or two shifts then turn all their stuff in and say "I'm not dying for this place or putting up with the BS." It was never like this under Mac, MDOC and DOJ need to serious look into T-Bone's hiring practices. Just about ever white person has quit the department because of the outright racism from the command staffs. But then again in the huge admin hire on he has done he has only hired maybe 2 white people a narcotics guy and a patrol deputy. Everyone else that is white except Ivy is left over from Mac's days when we had a good 50/50 mix and had competent people that could do the job. The inmates never acted the way they do now, because Mac had people that kept things in control. Now T-Bone has people that give the inmates pizza and donuts to try and make them behave. Then the inmates figure out that they have the power and they do whatever they want now.
So till you peoples actually work here, you have no right to say that Mac was wrong and that T-Bone is great. I challenge you to come work in a place that could kill you anyday. A place that barely feeds your kids and could leave them motherless at any moment. And the whole time you gets to look at the people sitting around make triple to quadruple what you make that take no risks and do nothing but sit around all day.
Frank Melton is running the jail.
Every one just needs to go over to the Koneeowawnia Coffee house and chill.
Let 's recap this social injustice today.
110 degree heat index and Graham is in full (off the rack winter wool suit) display. He sees an opportunity to look important in front of the media.
Peggy H. Calhoon is also taking advantage of this photo-op. She shows up at the the Hind's jail
dressed like she's going to a Romney Event at River Hills. Anyone see the TV close-up of her heels walking through the Jail muck ?
lil' baby boy is innocent ! He will only surrender to Kenny .
Mac is still pouting at New Stage.
I now understand what Faukner ment when he said:
" The tragic burlesque of the son's of Ham "
Hinds can"t take care of their business. Lack of leadership. So now let Rankin and Madison fix things. The same people who left Jackson and Hinds County because of poor leadership. Ain't it ironic.
Where the hell is Ingrid Norton when you need her lily-Jane-come-lately white ass to report on something real time?
9:06 -- Ingrid got it right when she said Jackson has gotten a more representative, equitable government. "Representative" in the sense that the leadership mirrors the remaining citizenry. "Equitable" in the sense that you get the sort of leadership you deserve.
6:46 PM - Mac failed to allow T-rone to spend one day helping transition. Mac hired crap and it is still there.
This is an outright lie. How dare you defend the lying scum currently in office. Now the people of Hinds County will see how they screwed up. T-Bone is a joke AND a liar to boot.
Get your facts straight before you make a fool of yourself again. Obviously you are on the payroll with T-Bone.
wow!!!! looks like T Bone is getting rave reviews as sheriff on here....8:40 is dead on right
Here come the predictable, yet clueless, Tyrone Lewis haters.
7:00pm, Sheriff Lewis can't make change without cash. Providing the cash is the responsibility of the Hinds County Board of Idiots. McMillin rightfully raised hell about appropriations for years. The Board hasn't gotten any smarter since Lewis has been in office. Unless Sheriff Lewis can pull cash out his ass, these problems can't be fixed.
8:39/8:40, if you were smart enough to be sheriff, you wouldn't be on here bitching about your pay and how much other people made. If you were fit for law enforcement, you wouldn't be here trashing the Sheriff and fellow officers anonymously. If you had any character whatsoever, you would tender your resignation to this man you dislike so much, instead of displaying your disloyalty and lack of trustworthiness for all to see.
As far as your challenge to "work in a place that could kill you any day," welcome to law enforcement and corrections, rookie. If you didn't understand that the job carried the risk of death when you submitted the application, then you're an idiot. If that risk bothers you this much now that you're on the job, then you never packed the gear to be there in the first place.
You are the type of disloyal whining jealous malcontent that will end up getting a deputy killed. I damn sure wouldn't want to depend on you to cover my ass. May Sheriff Lewis identify you and send you packing before you get someone hurt.
To 10:21 Crowley Attorney at Leisure
Thanks for the insightful opinion piece on county appropriations and for showing that you would gladly lay your jacket across the soupy muck on the floor of the detention center to keep Tyrone from getting his boots nasty. I have not checked this blog in a while and was shocked that you didn't some how squeeze in your time as an employee of the Hinds County Sheriff's Office or how you and your semiautomatic pistol held the line until JPD arrived at your office during an attempted burglary. Maybe you can hire on as legal council to yo sheriff, he's probably going to need it soon, if you could stand the cut in blogging that the job would present. I hope you prorate your clients legal fees for the time you devote to seeing your name on this site alone. As for tendering a resignation to yo sheriff, you can rest easier knowing that I do not work for him and would never work for him. I am curious what it is that impresses you so much about the man but his inaction in staffing the jail makes him negligent for the destruction done there today. I'm sure you will cobble together some rant to enlighten those of us who aren't fooled by the man so type away counselor. Disappointed yes, jealous malcontent not hardly. Now back to the jail riot blogging please. Thanks, 08:39
Sheriff Lewis said it was the " disgruntled employees who making claims of unrest in the jail"!!!! Seriously!!!! The facility is run down. They arent staffed properly. He should have seen this coming. The sheriff has lied, manipulated and practically destroyed that law enforcement agency. More than half of the employees have quit and gOne to other agencies, where they are compensated for their work. This new administration is a JOKE!! I urge everyone to go to the courthouse and get a copy of the payroll. It is public information. But dont be discouraged when they give you the run around about releasing the information!!! You will be sent to his female "FRIEND" to get those records!!!!! Do your homework and be amazed. Our officers are doing the best they can especially after the sheriff took half their money from them!!!!!!!!!!!
Tyrone Loser is a joke
Come on , Lewis is a documented crook that people voted for. The SO is where he is paying his buddies top dollar to do nothing . Crowley loves this guy , Hmmmm. Tyrone was elected by my people who vote based on color and not on his track record. He will be out next election , there is a candidate coming who will do a better job.
12:11 a.m. You should have been in bed instead of posting. Nobody can go to a government office and 'get a copy of the payroll' on request.
None of this would have happened if they would have let community activist David Archie in the facility to defuse the situation when he asked. Leave Crowley alone. He's only concerned about the safety of his potential customers.
He will find some way to blame it on Mac.
my my....tyrone "dah sheriff" lewis was quoted in the clarion ledger this morning saying "it took so long to end this standoff because he wanted to be sure that he had a plan in place"..mmm...uh ruh...I would think there should be a plan in place already BEFORE those bottom feeders started to misbehave...
He will find some way to blame it on Mac.
Just as the Kenyan has blamed his predecessor. When the bulk of your constituency will vote 90% for anyone sporting the Donkeycrat brand it doesn't matter what you say.
He did have a plan in place July 31, 2012 7:42 AM. What he didn't have was a backup plan to use when the pizza and doughnuts stopped working. Donkeycrats only lead from behind.
Fact is Mac was a terrible sheriff. If any of you think that he was looking out for hinds county you'er just plain stupid. He was looking out for himself. Also if you think that the jail was in good or even fair condition when Lewis took office you have been living under a rock. The jail did not get into it's current condition in the last seven months. The problems started with the board of supervisors that had the jail built. They decided to have a "minority" contractor, black folks, build it. Well that we are gonna make Hinds County Gov't all black obviously hasn't worked. What they need to do is let the "all black" mentality go and privatize the jail. One bill and they county does not have the headache. It ould be good if they could get the city to pay part of it but I doubt the city would go for it.
As far as payroll, Mac had people on the payroll that made double what patrol deputies made and the then chief deputy did not even know who they were.
Nothing to blame on Mac. If something like this happens the day after you take control, then sure it is probably beyond your direct control. If it happens a couple of months after you take control, it gets more iffy.
But 7 months? Tyrone can look in the mirror if he wants to know who to blame.
8:39, if you have never worked for Sheriff Lewis, you have no idea whether inmates are left unsupervised in the pods, whether the jail is adequately staffed, or the reasons for the alleged understaffing.
While you dismiss my comments regarding appropriations, you are too dense to realize that is as much a defense of Sheriff McMillin as it is Sheriff Lewis. These problems are the result of 20+ years of supervisor neglect, not because of anything McMillin or Lewis did or did not do.
7:42, that quote is misleading the way it appeared in the CL. There has to be on-the-scene planning anytime there is a standoff. It's not as easy as throwing on some body armor and running in and kicking ass.
The on-scene people have to wait for the tactical people to get there and get staged. Same with the negotiator. Contact has to be established with the bad guy. Intel has to be gathered. Does he have hostages? Weapons? Is he barricaded? And on and on and on.
Meanwhile, the negotiator needs to have an opportunity to diffuse the situation and try to talk the bad guy out.
If tactical action is forced immediately without taking time to gather this intel, officers could very well be walking into an ambush. If he has hostages, it can sign their death warrants.
No amount of advance planning will ever replace the real time planning that has to take place. Every one of these situations is different. Generic plans don't work
Personally, I'm in favor of giving the negotiator as much time as he needs to try to work it out. As long as the negotiator feels he is making progress toward a peaceful conclusion, let him talk for days if that's what it takes to end it with no bloodshed.
Crowley did you defend Tyrone this hard when he was pimpin JPD's training academy as a Deputy Chief , how about that perjury he committed at that civil trial. But real fan stay true.
Thanks again curt, appropriations being withheld from HSO is not news to me, having lived here all my life. While the board of supervisors has seen fit to purchase the Valley Title Building and hire relatives of board members for whatever they could McMillin and his staff repeatedly asked for funds for jail repairs, maintenance, vehicles and the list goes on. It is long over due that the board of supervisors is yoked with their inaction but they aren't responsible for the loss of control or the destruction resulting from it. As for being dense I don't need to work for a fool to use common sense and deductive reasoning to see that supervised inmates don't tear up as much stuff as they have in seven months at Raymond. As for your tutorial on negotiation tactics I don't know where you got your info but Tyrone said the guy was a novice and that they had not had contact with him for a long time. Novice vs novice? As for your crash course in negotiation, you should stick to law and statute blogging. The sheriff didn't have a plan and couldn't come up with one for hours. Tact and planning are imperative but twelve hours? If you think that the jail is staffed appropriately and that it is in capable hands then dense would fit you like a glove. A problem inmate should probably be placed in a cell that locks or have a deputy watching or at least checking to see if he or she is still present. But I'm sure someone not as dense as me can spin Tyrone out of blame and into the role of one who didn't read the disclosure statement before he made the purchase. Blog on
Blame it on George Boosh! Viva la Mehico!
To SHADOWFAX!!! You should have been awake doing ir homework. The records are PUBLIC information. If you decide to see what Lewis is paying his friends. Ypu can apologize. His friends and secretaries are making more than seasoned 20 vets!!!!!! Do ypur homework before yoy speak!!!!
12:53, just stop. It is obvious that you have no law enforcement, corrections or tactical training. You, quite simply, don't know what the fuck you are talking about.
You don't even know what constitutes a "plan" or planning under these circumstances. You are taking the Sheriff's words and applying them to a situation that you do not understand, reaching a conclusion, and thinking you are some kind of common sense hero. Same thing with the negotiation, or lack thereof, and the significance of same.
Since you pride yourself on your "common sense and deductive reasoning," do ya reckon the difficulty in communication that you mentioned might make it a little bit harder to obtain the intel they need? Do you think it might take a little longer if there is a lack of contact? Do you even know the role of a negotiator?
If you packed the gear to do that kind of work, you would have done it before, or would be doing it now. Your opinions on the planning stage and execution of the operation are of no value whatsoever.
Finally, the fact that you think 12hours is "a long time" in this situation tells me all I need to know about your expertise.
You obviously don't like Tyrone Lewis. If you want to criticize him, have at it. Just please stop pulling stuff out of your ass to do it.
11:48, did you criticize McMillin when he re-promoted Tyrone Lewis 4 months later?
As for the "perjury," the only liar here is you. Tyrone Lewis has never been charged with perjury, nor has any person in a responsible position accused him of committing perjury.
The only allegations of perjury I have heard have come from anonymous internet cowards such as yourself, who lack the character and fortitude to put your name next to such allegations. If you want to accuse someone of committing a crime, go ahead. But at least have the decency to put your name on it.
Tyrone is a crook , and you know it. It's about the money and putting up a front. Continue to defend this guy. He needs more like you . In Law enforcement your integrity must be unquestioned . He had soured his and can't regain it . He will be out next election Mr. Crowley so enjoy.
Crowley on the payroll of TyWrong? Sounds like it.
Crowley just because your not charged with something doesn't mean it didn't happen . You being an attorney know that. Just admit your infatuated with Tyrone Lewis and have at it.
5:59, prove it. It's real easy for you cowards to hide under your desk and make allegations. So prove it.
What you idiots don't realize is that when you say Lewis is dirty and the best you can do is renting out the academy, you also question then-Chief McMillin's competency and integrity. Do you think that McMillin found a "crook" and didn't fire him? Then McMillin re-promoted said "crook" a mere 4 months later? Bullshit. What you claim is corruption was nothing more than a policy violation. McMillin's actions prove it.
And the perjury that never was? That's a joke. To believe your theory that he was caught committing perjury, one would have to believe that a sitting trial court judge, a team of insurance defense lawyers, and nine sitting Supreme Court justices knew that perjury had been committed, and not one of them initiated charges or even so much as requested an investigation. That's quite a long and distinguished list of co-conspirators.
Honestly, if that's all you got, I don't blame you for posting this trash anonymously. I wouldn't put my name on it either.
@6:53, no this is pro bono.
@9:31, don't confuse my hatred of cowardly anonymous weasels who falsely accuse people of crimes with an infatuation. It truly takes a sorry, gutless little bitch to do that. I am offended by their mere existence, and wish doom upon their houses.
I've known of Curt's support for Tyrone since before his election. It is not infatuation, it is clearly a belief Tyrone is the best cop for the job.
Try again.
.Who said Mac was just in his actions. Rebecca would have gave him 2 options for that academy fiasco , retire or get fired.
Who? You mean Aunt Esther? If that twice-retired double-dipping senior citizen campus cop is the standard for excellence in law enforcement administration around here, we really are screwed.
Lets just wait until august of 2015to pass judgement on Sheriff Lewis.
Come on Victor Mason ! I'm betting 88% , and destroying T- Rone. Retribution is a Bitch !
