Catch & Release! Squawk!

The Byram Police Department issued the following statement Friday. 

On Wednesday September 6, 2023 at approximately 1:57 p.m. in the 400 block of Byram Drive inside the city limits of Byram, officers responded to physical assault call for service. When officers arrived on scene, they encountered a female victim walking towards the intersection of Byram Drive and Terry Road disoriented. The victim was later determined to be a Byram resident who was brutally assaulted as she went on her normal routine jog. Signs of sexual assault were also discovered as detectives processed the scene. Citizens in the area immediately began aiding the investigation by calling the Byram Police Department and providing valuable suspect description. Surveillance footage of the suspect was also collected.

After canvassing the area of the incident, the suspect was shortly apprehended. The suspect was identified as 22 year old Coby Byrant Taylor of Byram. Taylor is currently being held at the Hinds County Detention Center without bond, until his initial appearance. The victim was transported to a local area hospital to be treated for injuries.



Kingfish note: The Byram municipal court denied bond for Bryant.  JPD arrested Bryant for aggravated assault and attempted armed robbery in April 2022.  The detective's affidavit states Bryant: 

did unlawfully, feloniously, and purposely or knowingly cause or attempt to cause bodily injury to Darius Taylor at 5600 Keele St. With means likely to produce death or serious bodily injuries by striking Darius Taylor in the back f the head with a handgun.


did willfully, unlawfully and feloniously at 5600 Keele St, attempt to take and steal and carry away a backpack that belonging to Darius Taylor against his will by putting him in fear of immediate injury to his person by exhibition of a deadly weapon to wit: an unknown caliber handgun.

He has not been indicted.

Had he been in jail like he was supposed to be then the woman never would have been raped.

As a resident of NE Jackson it’s sad to say our best hope is these thugs get arrested outside the city. A neighbor of mine is a well known lawyer n metro area and he told me this a year ago. I guess this is what he meant

More phenomenal JJ reporting while the leftist Democrat media, WAPT as just one example, shifts the blame for crimes such as homicide to “weak gun laws,” in spite of the clear evidence that the vast, vast, vast majority of crimes, especially homicides with guns, are in Democrat controlled cities that LOVE lawlessness, while the number of guns per household is almost certainly much, much higher in neighboring cities NOT controlled by Democrats.

Democrats use crime, CATCH and RELEASE and chaos as tactics to keep people from moving into their cities that would vote them out of office. If the crime rates in Jackson, MS were equal to their Republican controlled neighbor cities, property values would soar and the Chokwe’s of America would have to get a real job because their asses would get voted out of office.

The saddest and most unbelievable thing is even the young innocent children being killed by stray bullets, or even murdered in these Democrat controlled high crime hell hole cities, doesn’t get any attention from rich Democrats, especially the rich white Democrats, that take their sorry asses home to their safe houses in safe neighborhoods.

And many rich white Democrats are so hypocritical that they move into gated subdivisions outside of cities controlled by their party, but instead live in Republican controlled cities and counties like Madison and Rankin. Pathetic, and Shameless!

Yet another incident of heinous crime perpetrated because the suspect is stricken with poverty.

5:44 - it's my opinion that the best hope for your city is that these thugs will "terminate with extreme prejudice" each other.

So this criminal is a Byram resident, the crime was in Byram. It is in Hinds County. So is Clinton.
Canton is in Madison County as is the courthouse, but somehow, Madison, the city, isn't blamed for crimes in Canton nor is Madison's mayor. Madison's mayor isn't blamed for problems in the Madison County justice system. Nor are the crimes and criminals in the whole of Madison County blamed on all the citizens of Madison.
Mississippi had the 8th highest crime rate in the Nation. Pascagoula's crime rate for violent crimes jumped up 76%. Jackson's property crime rate declined.
The single strongest predictor of crime is the poverty rate. Madison's white collar criminals are not noted with alarm. One city, Jackson, alone, doesn't keep us high nationally. And,it's rare that Jackson's violent crime happens outside of 6 designated areas, none of which are downtown or in the most affluent areas Jackson and all of which are "poor". Indeed, if those were rated only on per capita of their neighborhood area, our crime rate would be good indeed. Also, in some stats, the " metro area" is counted.
If we as a State want to improve including in prosperity, we all have to work together to solve common problems. And constructive solutions are more useful that the negativity that paints all of Mississippi in the minds of others.

What’s misleading about this? I live in Jackson and people need to know the truth and that is our DA sucks and criminals only seem to run free in city of Jackson as opposed to the surrounding areas. However I do support JPD, capital police and our sheriff. Prob is in the court rooms.

Kingfish said...

Actually, fatherless homes is the biggest predictor and indicator of crime. Of course, you forget to mention that part. No surprise. Neither does the Mayor when he claims to discuss root causes.

What was misleading about the headline? He was arrested, never prosecuted, and free to rape. What was misleading?

8:07 - poverty is produced by lack of character. There are untold number of instances of individuals being born into poverty who rise about it and make positive contributions to society. So don't tell me that all these problems are caused by poverty. Poverty and crime coexist because of a lack of character. And where does character originate? Home?

@8:07 AM Rukia, thanks for checking in and sharing your lies. Right?

The 1st rule of Jackson Crime Club is that we don't talk about Jackson Crime.
This is the way friends. If we all just shut up, Jackson will have no more crime.

Signed,
every democrat

Anonymous said...

Misleading? Yes. Why? Because not one reader opened the link without thinking he was going to read about another current Jackson crime going unpunished. (Here ya go, "Earlier Jackson catch and release leads to Byrum rape".
.......................
As to the poster who suggests we all need to work together to solve this problem, pray tell what the hell most of us can do about absent fathers in Jackson, poor mothers raising (without supervision or the skills of parenting) future criminals who are less than a decade away from committing felonies including murder, or a castrated JPD.

Yes, what I want to hear from the 'we are all in it together' crowd, just what they hell they recommend. Oh, besides more money and other free stuff. Perhaps Rukia would like about 20 more million dollar grants to form study groups, provide weekly neighborhood meetings (with food of course) and establish roving groups of grief counselors.

Kingfish, You are spot on about fatherless home!

I'm familiar with the location in Byram where this happened. It's isolated but many people jog along the road there. I hope the victim is okay and that the rapist rots in jail.

Mark said...

I agree with Kingfish about the fatherless posting. Read Fatherless America by David Blankenhorn (Mississippian). His book hits the nail on the head perfectly too! Can buy it under $20.00

I came from a fatherless home. My father was killed in Afghanistan in 2002. I haven’t immersed myself in a culture of thuggery indulged in a life of crime.

Of course, there are always outliers within any data set; however, the statistics linking crime with fatherlessness isn't up for debate.

There's nothing deceptive here. He was caught and released by JPD. He was captured by Byram PD.

4:03AM and 7:10AM are just salty Jacksonians. Probably mad they can't live somewhere with a functioning Police and District Attorney.

7:10 - Apparently, so do you.

Todd said...

@8:07 Property crimes are not down in Jackson. They are just not reported anymore. I am speaking from experience here. If someone breaks into a house, especially a vacant house, why waste an hour or two reporting it to the JPD when nothing is ever done. No fingerprints, neighbors interviewed, or whatever investigating techniques are amazingly used in other communities but never in Jackson. We have learned that it must be our own fault for forgetting to lock doors or not having a viscous attack dog or leaving the house to buy groceries.

Frank Nitti said...

People, please read and comprehend what is posted before commenting. This crime in Byram occurred because of a catch-and-release in Jackson. What’s with all the criticism?

The Truth Hurts said...

The left like to blame crime on poverty. Then they use this lie to create more "anti-poverty" giveaway programs. This all started with LBJ's "great society" scam. These programs create empires, lucrative careers, and power on the left.

If you want to get out of poverty GET A FUCKING JOB.

What story are you reading, 9:42. There were two separate crimes, not close in time nor details. He was never indicted in Jackson, according to what I read.

Then There's This: "Yet another incident of heinous crime perpetrated because the suspect is stricken with poverty."

So people rape and rob other people because they're poor? How much more in helicopter money and benefits do people need in order to not rape and rob?

The appropriate punishment (upon conviction of course) is to cut off his genitals with a dull rusty knife. This will guarantee that this never happens again.

And no, the victim isn't fine. This will haunt her for the rest of her life.

You're telling me there are, for lack of a better word, people out there who say "Because I am poor I must rape"? Bullshit.

@8:07 AM said: "Madison's white collar criminals are not noted with alarm."

I don't note white collar criminals with alarm, no. Their crimes don't leave us shot, cut, beat up, and our women living the rest of their lives with an STD.

I will never understand you leftists riding shotgun for every demographic failure.

A year and a half ago this guy was arrested by JPD for armed robbery and aggravated assault. He still has not been indicted.

It seems to me that somehow the municipal court system failed to present this guy for an initial appearance, JPD failed to transmit the file, or the DA sat on it, or some combination of the foregoing.

Where's the breakdown? If we're going to find out, it will likely be from KF's reporting. I don't foresee anyone else digging into this, except maybe a plaintiff's attorney for the second victim.

Anonymous said...

September 11, 2023 at 8:07 AM - Excuses and diversion. The topic is the very common practice of returning thugs to the streets to commit more crimes. It is not unique to Jackson, but has become a common characteristic of those metro areas where it has been decided that posting high bail and incarceration are somehow racist due to the "poverty trap".

What "we" have to do is put them away for a long, long time. The laws are already there, and the processes are already there, but the actions are lacking commitment.

Anonymous said...

9:21, so (IF this is a real story) you don't see the difference in the reason for your fatherlessness vs the ones KF noted? Voluntary fatherlessness is fundamentally different than unintentional/tragic fatherlessness! The voluntary type (and I don't mean the type produced by divorce where, more times than not, the father is still involved in his kids' lives), is usually culturally-generated and causes cultural decline. You can't distinguish between the two?

Anonymous said...

Disgusting. All of those people who don't reside in the city of Jackson complaining about their tax dollars going to fund Capitol Police and separate court better take note of the consequences of doing nothing.

Prayers for the victim. Getting over something like is tough. As a victim of rape, it is not something you ever forget.

@8:42, I have been saying all along that the Marxist group that’s headquartered “previously” out of Bolton but is now headquartered in Jackson is following this blog step by step, comment by comment about making a positive contribution to society is a statement they do not want to hear. Many of you have said a mouthful and it needed to be said. We know who is in Washington, and is a member of that Marxist group and keeps a finger on the pulse of this city. He has hated it his whole life and was the one who invited Edwin Taliferio to come here. How else would he have know to locate in Bolton? Who is “running” the organization now? Who has to have body guards? The idea is to to run all white people out of Jackson. They don’t care how they do it or hurt maim or kill in the process. My last word is, this animal should have been sent to the Pen. No excuses but when your judges are threatened by the Marxists then they have no choice but to be soft. It’s been an ongoing plan for 60 years. I’m just waiting, just like you and many more as to when Shad is going to cuff him. If he doesn’t then we know he has had a threat on his life.

It’s too bad she can’t sue someone for letting this monster walk the streets.
While he will spend at least a decade in prison.
You can’t unrape the victim. Her life is ruined forever.
Sixty years ago he would get justice in the form of a rope and some kerosene from her male relatives.
Saved us a lot of taxpayer money.

Apparently everything in Jackson with any conceivable resale value has already been stolen.

A lack of indictment does NOT imply innocence, as we learned under former DA Schuler Smith's reign!!! Are you new around here??

And these crimes are similar; they both have the same M.O. (go ahead and google because you probably don't know what that means). The perp snuck up behind the victim and cold-cocked them in the head from behind. The first time, he was dumb enough to pick a grown man. This time, he picked a feather weight 64 year old woman in a secluded area. Knocked her down and literally beat her head and face until she was senseless... they said she's lucky to be alive. He's a fucking coward who wants to be a predator. He should never be free again. When someone like you wants to give him another chance, understand it may be your family rather than someone else's who pays the price for that mistake. Is it worth it?

Oh and in case you missed the TV footage, he ADMITS ON CAMERA he assaulted her - but denies the rape!!! As if it's okay to beat a 64 year old woman nearly to death as long as she wasn't raped! That's what we're dealing with here!! He should never be outside a prison cell again!

Anonymous said...

8:24 - I didn't mention innocense. Said nothing about it. He was never indicted.

All that gobblegook you posted does not change the fact that you claimed 'he committed the crime in Jackson and Byram arrested him'. Admit it, Gomer! You thought the two crimes were one and the same. The crimes are distanced by a year and a half. Knocking a man in the head and raping a woman are dissimilar. Circular reasoning won't absolve your ignorance. (I know you won't understand the last sentence)

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.
