Protest Over Police Shooting Today (Updated)

Update: BLJ found out UMMC does not allow press conferences on its campus so no press conference was held. 

The Black Lawyers for Justice organization will hold a rally at UMMC at 2 PM today to protest the shooting of Michael Corey Jenkins by Rankin County Deputies on January 23.  The press release states: 



Michael Jenkins was shot in the mouth, while handcuffed, by Rankin County Mississippi Police on 1/23/23

Black Lawyers for Justice, by way of thorough investigation has confirmed that this outrage is true.

Michael was shot in private residence, not in the heat of passion, but in a deliberate act of prolonged hostage taking and illegal interrogation by Rankin County Cops. This viscous interrogation, which netted near to nothing, was performed these 6 white cops using acts of water boarding the two detained men (meaning to drown them with milk) picking , kicking, slapping and tasing the two Black men and pointing guns to their heads and mouths for an extended time period...... until one of the officers gun off went off for real; and shot Michael in the mouth severely injuring him and damaging the young man for life.

This shooting was completely unjustified!

On Monday January 13th A News Conference will be held at 3pm eastern at University of Mississippi Medical Center.

Black Lawyers for Justice and attorney Malik Z. Shabazz and state attorneys will be present along activists and organizers supporting Michael Jenkins to represent Michael and Terrell; who were brutality terrorized by these White officers

For more information on this case you can email Black Lawyers for Justice @ attorney.shabazz @yahoo.com

Or contact Sherrell Potts or PRenae Brooks Khadijah Shabazz

The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation is investigating the case.  An MBI January 25 press release states: 

deputies were conducting a narcotics investigation on 135 Conerly Road in Braxton. Once they reached the scene around 11:45 p.m. Tuesday, a suspect pointed a gun toward the deputies before being shot. 

Stay tuned.

It's hard to take an attorney seriously when they can't produce intelligently written sentences.

Rankin county has earned their reputation for heavy handed police that target minorities. This could get real bad if it’s even half true. If they have to start digging through past cases, expect the feds to set up shop and stay a while.

This should be easy to clear up. Let’s take a look at the body cam footage and see what happened. As long as the officers were acting within the law, I’m sure their body cam will clear them. If they didn’t have the cameras on during a home invasion drug raid,, we can probably assume everything the attorney said is true and Rankin will have some serious problems from the fallout.

Whatever law school issued the writer a degree should be shut down for incompetence. And the undergraduate college as well. I’ve seen better written middle school reports. Oh, and who are the “Rankin County Cops”? I’m not familiar with that agency.

Waterboard with milk is a blatant lie. Rankin cops would use hot bacon grease.

Anybody can call themselves darn near whatever they want to get a little attention and to hold a "rally". A "press release" is just a piece of paper with any story they want to tell to get a little attention. Who are these people anyway?

I can't. The whole press release, but for real...And the @yahoo.com email address. Certainly, if this were legit, we would have a more polished atty than Shabazz.

I just looked at Shabazz's Facebook. Black Panther party as well as the NFAC(Not Fk'ing Around Coalition). I am certain he is here to stir stuff up. 110%. His FB is lit!

I stopped at 'shot in the mouth' when the picture shows no mouth injury. Frankly, I don't care WHERE he was shot if he produced and pointed a gun at a LEO.

These lawyers can pound waffles. At IHOP.

No. MBI is handling it so he is out.

I don’t know much about rally’s but they should probably hold this in rankin county near the location of said incident.

Malik Shabazz is a racist black nationalist with a long, well-documented history of violently anti-Semitic remarks and accusations about the inherent evil of white people. He is also particularly skilled at orchestrating provocative protests. Ousted from the Nation of Islam after he became an embarrassment even to that hard-line group, Shabazz went on to take up the leadership of the New Black Panther Party."

So I guess Lumumba considers him a ally.

While it's POSSIBLE this happened the way the lawyers are claiming, I believe it's improbable. Just read what they claimed happened to this guy. They took them hostage and waterboarded him with milk? Does that really sound like something that would happen in 2023? As I said above, it's possible, but highly improbable.

The way I judge the credibility of a report, coming from people with a pecuniary interest in making those claims, is whether they admit to some sort of criminality. They ALWAYS omit the criminality. In fact, what they'd have you believe is that their client was sitting at home, reading his bible, when 6 jackbooted thugs (another popular description) broke down his door and assaulted him for no reason. Well, other than he was black.

Looks to me this is just another page from the same playbook.

If they spent as much time and effort trying to keep these guys out of trouble as they do on raising hell afterwards, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Isn’t Malik Shabazz the clown who infamously said “I hate every iota of a cracka” and then proceeded to command his follow to “kill they cracka babies”

Anonymous said...

Past events in Jackson and z Memphis show that race is not the issue in police shootings. The deputies could have done this and if the account is true, they should be punished. Just let the investigation proceed and see how it comes out. The lawyers should do this too. Don’t jump to conclusions about guilt or innocence.

Me thinks the Feds will have to step in , I would imagine DPS doesn’t want this hot potato. If so and they dig this will turn out like the Alex Murdaugh case.

Anonymous said...

@2:57 - the same logic of credibility can be applied to the police reports. In officer involved shootings, they always claim the victim was pointing a gun or reaching for the officers gun and then the report usually states something like the victim failed to obey orders and suffered a gunshot wound. The reports never state Officer White Guy fired 5 times killing the man who was holding a banana.

Maybe the LEOs were spitting tobacco? After all, this DID take place in Rankin County...

158,000 was the population of Rankin County in 2021. Of all the people in that County why was this man targeted? It’s certainly not that the deputies were looking for him to give an award!

Why, why my baby, he ain’t did nothing wrong! 1 of 158,000.

If I was going to tell a lie I would make it believable. The cops may have put the guy in the hospital, but it didn't happen that way.

Its sad that racism has become so rare that folks need to manufacture it.

We should be holding press events to celebrate that fact instead.

If you haven’t read the NATIONAL PRESS CONFERENCE then please do so. It would be comical if it wasn’t so pitiful. I don’t know who this organization is, but they string together a hodgepodge of incomplete sentences, misspelled words and atrocious grammar. It is difficult to even begin to comprehend what they are attempting to say. Their statement is nonsensical at best and complete garbage at worst.

Dudes just trying to profit off of the viscous attacks done to others.

Looks like the sheriff is refusing to say if his gang had a warrant. The man they shot had his throat bandaged at the press conference. MBI is on the case so it’ll be tough for Rankin to keep the coverup in house. This is going to gain a lot of attention from outside the state. We will see if Rankin officers can be on their best behavior so they aren’t caught violating the constitutional rights of the protestors, but old habits die hard.

Looks like the victim had surgery to remove his tongue. How could that happen since there doesn’t appear to be any gunshot wound to his face. It’s seems the cops did have a gun down his throat when they tried to execute him after their torture session concluded. These are some sickos who shouldn’t be near guns, let alone entrusted to uphold the law. The lawsuit is said to be for $90 million. Sure hope the rankin taxpayers don’t mind paying a little more for their rogue police force.

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.
