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.

Trollfest '07
Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.
There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
If you get tired come relax at the Fox News Tent. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag.

Rumor in Raymond is any employees that were there under Mac will be gone soon. Although there are probably only a few left
12:37
Those that were under Mac are already gone... Lewis took care of that! Everybody pretty much is either a friend or a reject from JPD
Victor has a lot of cleaning to do to staff that place with adequate personnel. JPD rejects flock over there no it's like a haven for F up's.
Hopefully it isn't true that Bailey is going to hire Lewis and Pico in Rankin County. That's what's being said and if it's true I've lost all respect for Bailey and he will not get my vote in the next election.
#FREERandyHarris
Can anyone tell me why Lewis lost? His billboards made me laugh.
Picu is a good LEO, but not for upper command authority. He won't have any problem finding a job, just not as a chief deputy or equivalent.
Lewis needs to just go home.
What's the point of publishing these rosters BTW?
I didn't see Dan Aykroyd's name on the list.
I really don't want to add up all those pages from 2011 in HCSO. Didn't they give totals? Its like comparing apples and oranges.
Ohhh..now jj wants to do some real reporting on the fact that lewis' camp is top-heavy which is a big reason why the guards and stret deputies were underpaid.
Guess that $1200 lewis paid him to keep quiet and swing stories in his favor during the election has run out. Smh.
The Baby is up late tonight. Time for bed little Baby. There is a whole day of whining and crying to do tomorrow.
January 4, 2012 – July 20, 2015 Total escapes or mistaken releases: 28
28 escapes in 3 1/2 years versus a grand total of 14 during Sheriff McMillin's twenty years of service.
I worked for both Mac and Lewis. I have to say that Mac was way more top heavy than Lewis and had a number of people being paid that did not show up for work. Lewis bringing folk from JPD was his down fall. Also have to say Chief Pico was a whole lot better than Steve Pickett was
@ 3:17
Bailey isn't going to hire Lewis and bring him to Rankin County. You can bet the farm on that.
What's the difference in an 'officer' and a 'deputy'? Figures are given for each.
For the last several weeks I've seen a number of HCSO guys sniffing around MCSO office, pressing flesh and would've been kissing babies if there had been any to kiss. Getting their names in the hat for any jobs that may come open.
I am sure all of the employees at the sheriff's office appreciate you posting their names and info.
@9:02p re.: Pickett -you're right but that ain't saying much.Pickett was one of Mac's bigger failings.
@9:01a Should it be a secret? it's public info.
All these thugs can go to work for the City of Pearl Police Department. They will fit in in Pearl.
Maybe Tyrone can calm some of these trigger happy Pearl police down. It is only a matter of time before someone else gets killed by these rookies driving the chargers like they are on a race track
6:25: You might want to look at it in the other direction. Compare 2011 snapshot to current one and other departments. Top heavy and way too many officers. Colonels? Majors?
For you qualified HCSO lurkers hoping to find some morsel of hope for your future, RCSO is making adjustments to its pay scale to become more competitive with contiguous counties and competing munis. If you have a clean record, work hard and have competency, you might send a resume over to stankin. Just remember, the fine print on the job app says you have to vote republican (or at least cross over to the republican run-off).
2:42 PM, Please be advised that Rankin County law enforcement is doing just fine without recruiting "Thugs" from Hinds county. Law enforcement in Rankin is for the most part professional and well run by the several administrations, (County and Cities), with an attitude of mutual respect and respect for the citizens.
If you come to Rankin and commit a crime, you can count on being arrested and put in jail and we have a district attorney who will prosecute you and judges who will send you to prison. For these reasons we have a low crime rate as opposed to what goes on "across the river".
We like it here and enjoy our relatively safe streets and neighborhoods. Oh and by the way, those of us who live over here could care less what you folks who live over there think as long as you keep your criminal activity over there.
@244 do you realize if crime continues across the river it will continue to bleed over into newborns counties. It's like a pandemic that will spread into Rankin and Madison even Warren counties. I know you all could care less about hinds but I'm pulling for them to get their house in order as a Madison County resident.
2:44 after 30+ years of law enforcement, I probably realize more about crime than you can imagine. We can do nothing about what goes on Democrat controlled Hinds County, but we can do our best to keep the criminal element out of Rankin or send them to prison if they insist on plying their criminal trade over here. We may not be able to stop all of them, but we can and will continue to arrest and incarcerate them in Rankin County. In my humble opinion there is not much chance of Hinds County getting their house in order. The corruption is too deep seated.
