Kidnappers Arrested

 Rankin County Sheriff Bryan Bailey issued the following statement. 

On August 21st, 2022, at approximately 10:00 a.m. the Rankin County Sheriff’s Office received a call from the Flowood Police Department that an injured male victim walked into their lobby and reported that he had been to an address located in the county to meet a female where he was assaulted, tied up and held at gunpoint.

Rankin County Deputies and Investigators responded to the Flowood Police Department where they met with the victim. The victim told deputies that on Saturday evening, August 20th he went to an address in the Reservoir area to meet a female.  When he arrived at the residence the victim states he was assaulted, tied up and held at gunpoint. The victim further stated he was held against his will for approximately 3 hours. The victim stated that the suspects took his phone and other items. 

The victim identified the suspects as Cortez ADAMS and Laken LOWERY. The victim further stated that Laken LOWERY’s mother, Tina LOWERY was present during the kidnapping and assault. 

The victim stated that after approximately 3 hours, the suspects untied him and let him leave the residence. The victim said that he drove off in his car and that the suspects followed him in a Dodge Ram Pickup. The victim said the suspects followed him for several minutes. When the victim was confident the suspects were no longer following him, he drove to the Flowood Police Department to report the crime.

Rankin County Deputies immediately began search the area the suspects along with putting out a statewide BOLO (Be On the Lookout) for the suspects and vehicles.

On Sunday evening Rankin County Sheriff Bryan Bailey was directly contacted by Adams County Sheriff Travis Patten. Sheriff Patten related that he and his department were familiar with Cortez ADAMS and assured Sheriff Bailey that if ADAMS was in his area the Adams County Sheriff’s Office would have the suspect in custody very soon. Less than an hour later, Sheriff Patten contacted Sheriff Bailey again and related that the Adams County Sheriff’s Office had both Cortez ADAMS and Laken Lowery in custody and also had recovered a weapon that was suspected of being used in the crime.

Rankin County Deputies traveled to the Adams County Jail and picked up both suspects and returned them to Rankin County where Cortez ADAMS and Laken Lowery were booked on the charges of Capital Kidnapping. Tina LOWERY was arrested in Rankin County and was booked on the charge of Accessory to Kidnapping.

District Attorney Bubba Bramlett will bring all three suspects before Rankin County Court Judge David Morrow for an initial appearance.

The Rankin County Sheriff’s Office is grateful for the quick response and assistance of the Flowood Police Department and the Adam’s County Sheriff’s Office.

"he went to an address in the Reservoir area to meet a female" AKA he was trying to get his goober wet

Sooooo...should we expect to see a solicitation charge, too?

I am selling quarters for 10 cents each if you believe this is all of the story.

Good to see this report. Saw report earlier from Natchez that only mentioned S.O. there making contact with the male via phone and the two accused of kidnapping gave themselves up. No mention of who the victim of kidnapping was or any other information was included in the report.

Reservoir Area, huh? Well, I smell a fish. Something is up with victim 'going to a house to meet a woman' and the 'woman's' mother being there to witness the whole thing. My money is on the 'victim' owing the woman something and she got him to come to the house to discuss, where he was tied up and threatened. Fish gets ripe after about three days on land.

IF this were a blind date type of situation, I'd probably be grateful for the beating. Just saying.

@11:22 AM is probably close to the truth.

It’s funny how quiet you racists be when white folks get arrested in Rankin County.

11:22 is probably close, or it has to do with prostitution or a drug deal. Bellgrove neighborhood and several others in 39047 are like a glorified trailerhood. It is a black eye on the area. Lots of trash(black and white) over there.

The Adams guy needs to remember the "mom test" when dating. Just saying.

@1:29; Actually laughing my ass off. Dealt with the mom and daughter in the past here in Canton. They were fun then.

Cortez aka “Bighead” doesn’t look like he’s got much going on between his ears.

@1:29 maybe that first photo didn't load for you?

They actually do kind of look like Minions.

Should have called police to handle situations not escalating to violence

Gawd yes. The stink of fish is everywhere with this case.
Most think Natchez is all about moonlight and magnolias.
It is not. There has always been a strong connection between Adams & Rankin Counties when it comes to drug trafficking.

I doubt this had anything to do with a kinky Mother/Daughter
"hook-up" with anybody at the Rez.

Kudos to Sheriff Patten and the Adams County Sheriff's Department.

These fools have been watching to many crime dramas on TV. I don’t think they watched the part where they get arrested and convicted!

Sounded like a good way to make some fast cash, at the moment! But you can’t smoke that good weed and make life changing decisions.

Prayers to the victim, he could have been castrated! It’s some sick fucks out there.

The suspects hit it off when they first met and fell in love because yellow was their favorite color. However what they didn’t know that the green and white jumpsuit is next (MDOC)!

You got to love these fools! And to the victim. Man, you are one lucky dumbass cause you could have ended up in a barrel of acid minus a penis

Capital kidnapping. This could get interesting.

Do they charge extra to tie him up or was that included?

How you figure? Your post was about number eleven.

First this and then Greyhound! Flowood is lost.

+1 to whoever said BelGrove is low rent. There was a drive by shooting reported over that way a few months ago. FML.

Were the ball gag and handcuffs booked into evidence?

1:29 Gotta love being called racist from a racist. I don’t think anyone on this site excuses any criminals whatever color they are but that won’t meet with your hater narrative.

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.
