Hinds County Sheriff Tyree Jones tweeted:
The two remaining escaped juveniles, Jashon Jones and Tayshon Holmes from the Henley-Young-Patton Youth Detention Center are both in custody. They were arrested this afternoon by Capitol Police in Jackson. More charges are pending by Capitol Police.

Too bad they weren’t captured outside of Jackson
It would be nice if we could get a Capital Holding Facility. Just need to get the County out of holding detainees before someone else get killed when these inmates walk away!
"Thanks for fixing another one of our screw ups," Hinds Co, probably.
Glad those thugs are off the street. I hope they arrest those that have been hiding them.
Hinds SO did not capture any of them; not one, but Tyree is patting himself on the back. Oh wait, there is an election on the horizon, so any news is good news.
I guess social media would object to placing those three guys in leg irons and chaining them to a heavy bolt in the ground for a year or so to assure they don't get into any more trouble while in jail working on completing their sentence. Sadly, I was born a thousand years too late I would have made a great dungeon master.
How many people who helped them escape and hid them have been arrested?
I wonder if the DA Jody Owens will talk to them about their rights to vote.
They really should make Bo Luckey the Sheriff and the police chief over Capitol Police & JPD. He’s the only competent law enforcement administrator in Hinds County.
The real issue here is our justice system. These are not adults they’re juveniles and to treat them as grown men isn’t the solution. Let’s work to reform them not sentence them
" These are not adults they’re juveniles and to treat them as grown men
isn’t the solution. Let’s work to reform them not sentence them".
Golly Gee whiz, That's a great idea!
Perhaps a few Fondren business owners can hire these young men
to provide valet service or bus tables.
Are these the ones whose moms were interviewed complaining about the detention center's safety?
" These are not adults they’re juveniles and to treat them as grown men
isn’t the solution. Let’s work to reform them not sentence them".
Great idea. They could make great child-care workers, UPS drivers, gunsmiths, or even bank tellers.
Proof that LEOs don't need more training, they always find a way to preserve the lives of the most dangerous.
Routine traffic stop = Swiss cheese time.
The good Sheriff prob first tweeted a reminder of what all his department is not responsible for. One of Governor Tater’s most impactful legacies will be what he did with Capitol Police. I don’t even see JPD cruisers any more.
They are 16, 17, and 18, and they committed grown men crimes. We can talk about children when 10 year olds start killing and carjacking.
They may be juveniles, but they are committing grownup crimes. That word crimes had an s, as in multiple crimes, not a one-off.
It is believed that 2 of these juveniles committed an armed carjacking while escaped. I believe in rehabilitation as strongly as anyone, but these juveniles are showing a strong pattern of criminality.
July 6, 2023 at 9:26 PM - The real issue is unsupervised minors doing adult crimes. If you do the crime, you do the time. Adding age as a variable would be -- wait for it -- discriminatory!
The Democrats want to lower the voting age. Will they also support lowering the age for treating juveniles as adults?
The justice system is a huge issue but it is not “the real” issue. The real issue is a cultural cancer and it has metastasized. The offenders are getting younger and more violent, and it’s everywhere. I wonder how many of these juvenile criminals are even enrolled in school. Whatever truancy efforts school districts have to make are as productive as bailing the water out of a sinking ship with a 4 oz. paper cup. We can talk about how all this starts in the home, the need for parents, churches, and community to set good examples, provide midnight basketball leagues, and instill proper morals and values in children; and we’ll be wasting good oxygen. That’s been the driving sentiment for years and it has failed. It’s become generationally entrenched and nearly insoluble in the affected demographic. We’d be better off putting schools under the Department of Defense and turning them into boarding boot camps run by drill sargeants who put up with zero noncompliance. I’m sure they could find a way to schedule some reading, writing, and arithmetic.
For their violent crimes, tax payers should only have to fork over about 50 cents for each of them.
Long time ago, I believed there was reform and rehabilitation. Those are the concepts a young, idealistic boy-becoming-a-man believes. But that airy fairy dust only lasted so long until the reality of recidivism became apparent. Yes, there’s reform and rehabilitation for a very few, but it’s not worth the return on the investment. The time has come to either live with crime or cull the herd. What course will this “exceptional” country choose?
The herd around here does a pretty good job of culling itself.
9:26 - no they’re adults. Just like our ancestors were married and farming at 15, the magical age of 18 was established for political reasons. And for reforming them, no also. The reforming institutes are schools, churches and workplaces. Jails, prisons and detention centers are for the benefit of law abiding citizens - to protect them from those that are a danger. RIP liberal ideology.
To be clear, while Tyree isn't responsible for the building or staff, he is absolutely responsible for the juveniles charged as adults.
7:15 they are not grown men, they are young fools that have no civil or home upbringing. Get with the DA Jody Owens so he can talk to them about their right to vote!
7:15 until these young men decide to act appropriate, a long prison sentence will assist in this process!
All of the supervisor of Hinds County need to go home and never come back. A new jail needs to be built correctly and up deputies salary. The jail is not fit for an animal or less than a human being. The supervisors act like it's their money. Build a new jail to keep these THUGS OFF THE STREET. THATS THE BOTTOM LINE MY FRIENDS.
