Forrest County deputies busted a "major" auto burglary ring today. The Hattiesburg Patriot reported the ring hit over 30 vehicles in Madison last night. Video of the arrest is posted below, complete with Tom Gorman's taunt of a suspect in cuffs.
Update (10/14/23, 7:35 AM): The Madison Police Department issued the following statement.
On October 13, 2023, at 0547 am, eleven vehicles were burglarized by forced entry at 2160 Main Street, Madison, Mississippi. The Madison Police Department responded to the scene and initiated an investigation. Similar incidents were discovered in Oxford and other areas of North Mississippi. Investigators obtained information leading them to a female attempting to cash fraudulent checks at banks in Pearl, Mississippi. With the assistance of multiple law enforcement agencies, 41-year-old Danelle Amber King and 42-year-old Matthew Arthur, both from Cleveland, Tennessee, were apprehended on Hwy 49 in Richland, Mississippi. They are currently detained at the Rankin County Detention Center.
The Madison Police Department continued its investigation, leading them to a residence in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. The Forrest County Sheriff’s Department was contacted, and three females were taken into custody after surveillance was set up on the residence. The females taken into custody are identified as 30-year old Jasmine Danielle Atkins, 29-year old Maya Marie Habersham, and 23-year old Desire Shardae Robinson, all from Florida. These three individuals are currently detained at the Madison County Detention Center.
Simultaneously, investigators with the Madison Police Department and Rankin County Sheriff’s Department located other individuals linked to the auto burglaries. Three individuals were apprehended on Interstate 59 at the 143 exit in Trussville, Alabama. The individuals taken into custody are 29-year old Raymone Marquis Davis, 27-year old Victor Alexander Ogiste, and 28-year old Danarious Trevon Young, all from Florida. These three individuals are detained at the Trussville Jail in Alabama. Extradition paperwork is being filed to have them transported back to Madison, Mississippi.
The Madison Police Department expresses gratitude to the Richland Police Department, Pearl Police Department, Flowood Police Department, Rankin County Sheriff’s Department, Forrest County Sheriff’s Department, and the Alabama State Troopers for their assistance in capturing the suspects.
This coordinated effort among multiple law enforcement agencies is commended as an example of exemplary teamwork in addressing the situation.

Haven't seen a report on Nextdoor.
Madison is lost.
For those of us who do not use facebook, we cannot view this. Is there another way?
Amazing detective work! It’s as if we can find anyone anywhere.
Madison is toast. Too much retail by the interstate that is a magnet for undesirables. This is why we are moving our family OUT of the city to Flora where are less of them.
That address looks like either a shopping center and/or a tire shop. Does anyone know if the victim's cars were at a tire shop? At 547 AM, I can't imagine 30 cars being at the stores unless they were left overnight as in for repair.
Do folks not clean their cars out when leaving them at shops with no bays or fencing? These chicks are probably not as suspicious looking around cars in suburban areas as the normal thugs would be. And I guess there are no houses nearby to hear breakage or see it, either.
But sound like good ole detective work along with the huge number of plate readers in Madison, too. We have a window broken out in Memphis at a very nice hotel on the river. For nothing gained; an empty secondary economy car for backup, not a King Ranch with guns. 19 cars hit.
And it's basically nationwide now as there is little repercussion in certain cities, if it's investigated at all there.
One place they hit was a fitness center where they were having early morning boot camps.
To paraphrase an overused, worn out quote on this blog, the price of my house in Jackson just went up.
Wow. That's bold. I bet they found purses that way, though. Thanks for clarifying, KF.
No mention of JPD? More proof that no serious crime ever occurs in J-town?
Thanks to very irresponsible gun owners, it is very likely that the perps also stolen unsecured firearms from these vehicles.
Buy a damn gun safe for $12 at Academy Sports, jackwagons!!!
Set appropriate bail, then prosecute them. If they are found guilty, sentence them to an appropriate prison term. That is the only way to deal with this.
Released without bail and no prison = more of this crap.
I live in Jackson, not Madison. I have friends and family in Hinds and Madison Counties. I wish the trolls on this site would find something better to do with their time than vomit up the sewage of stupid regional rivalries. That said, I am dazzled by the performance of the Madison PD, on this case and many others. Way to go, guys. Way to go.
I’d bet something stolen had an Air Tag hidden in it which lead them to the
House in the Hub City
Tag readers all over Madison (and elsewhere)...even if the car is stolen it's info to use until it is ditched
Good job to all law enforcement involved.
The 'tire shop' is about a hundred yards north of this facility that holds boot camps. Apparently, thirty of more boot camp participants were attending early morning ninja training and their vehicles were the targets. The tire shop and its customers with cars left overnight were not involved.
"Taunting"? Your jealousy is showing Kingfish. Gorman's report was lengthy, yet complete, and had clear audio and stable video.
