Jackson Jambalaya

The shooter isn't a "person of interest." The shooter is a suspect.

Seems like a wrong place at the wrong time waste of life. Sad. Prayers for the family.

My heart goes out to this young man's family. To lose one of your children is a grief I want no parent to know, having experienced this myself. May GOD bless them, and comfort them.

'The shooter isn't a "person of interest." The shooter is a suspect.'

Actually, he's neither. The SHOOTER is the PERPETRATOR.

Prayers for his family. I cannot imagine the pain from such senseless violence and the loss of a son.

That "beefed-up" security hasn't kicked in yet. Be patient, stay strapped.

Good looking young man. What an absolutely tragedy for his and the JSU family. Prayers for all affected.

I can tell you this parents are gonna think twice about sending their kids to JSU because of this sensless crime going on. I have always said JSU just needs to build one massive wall around campus and nobody gets in without an id.

Since additional security is on "sight," maybe they'll be able to see the "person of interest" and apprehend him (or her).

What an utter shame that these senseless killings are so frequent they're rarely shocking anymore. This kid, who had his whole life ahead of him, was killed over what I'm sure was nothing more than some sort of benign disagreement.......yet most everyone's response (including mine, I must admit) is "meh." Acts of violence are so commonplace these days, any outrage over them is more likely to be feigned than it is to be genuine.

The same thing happened when I was at USM. I actually knew the guy—he was very involved in student government, he was just shot and killed in his campus-adjacent apartment parking lot because he didn’t want to give up the engagement ring that he was going to use to propose to his girlfriend.

Obviously, this murder, the murder in Hattiesburg, as well as any life taken too young are tragedies. But let’s not pretend that university shootings are just a Jackson problem (10:12).

Is this connected to the earlier report at
Sunday, October 15, 2023?
That report stated ...."no students were involved or harmed.".....

Read the post.

The only way to slow this drastic increase in violent crime is to drastically increase the severity of the penalties. And yet no one, I mean no one, has even mentioned it.

All these universities have these apartment complexes for students that are directly adjacent to the campus proper. They present a security issue since unlike most dorms and academic facilities they have unregulated activity going on 24 hours a day. Like any urban environment you must be especially careful.

I would like to add to 4:58's post - not only has no one even mentioned a drastic increase in the severity of the penalties, no one has the balls to do so because it will offend someone. It is high time we return to public executions and put an end to this tragic waste of lives.

As I said in the post that Fish would not allow. Neither JSU Shooter post claims nor denies that both are the same incident.

This is what is written above: "Kingfish note: His father posted these pictures on several social media pages. Prayers for his family and friends. This murder took place at the Palisade apartments and is separate from the shooting that took place on Dalton Street Saturday. "

You'e a damn liar.

JSU has always had a severe housing problem. Until the state decides to build adequate dormitory facilities to house it's student housing demand JSU will struggle to provide security for it's students housed in west Jackson apartments. The need for secure student housing has historically been greatest at Jackson State and the IHL has the least interest in providing it. Wonder why?

" Until the state decides to build adequate dormitory facilities ... "

Gawd.

Here they go ... blaming "The State".

@7:34 What do you mean by " Until the state decides to build adequate dormitory facilities to house it's student housing demand JSU will struggle to provide security for it's students housed in west Jackson apartments." ? Do you believe it's the state's responsibility to do that ? They certainly haven't built them for UM, USM, or MSU.

I lived in a dorm on campus at Ole Miss. The state paid for it.

Are the apartments managed or owned by JSU? What does the state have to do with housing students on our college campuses? Who builds dormitories anyway? Just askin'.

The shooter isn’t a “person of interest,” nor “perpetrator.”

He is a MURDERER!

9:58 I think you're referring to fraternity houses that the state did not build at UM, MSU or USM. Dorms they built plenty.

The person at the highest level of the academia at this school cant even spell. Sad! But wants the full time job. Made sure to have her own letterhead though.
