Child Molester Gets 20 Years

Rankin-Madison District Attorney Bubba Bramlett issued the following statement.


Rankin County - Madison and Rankin Counties’ District Attorney Bubba Bramlett, announced that Judge Dewey Arthur sentenced Christopher Coursey to a term of twenty-five years for sexual battery involving two minor children. Coursey, 39, will serve 20 years of his sentence in prison and then be placed on supervised probation for five years. He must register as a sex offender and will have no contact with his victims.

On July 20, 2022, the Brandon Police Department received a walk-in complaint about Coursey sexually assaulting two young children for the last year and a half. The child victims had a forensic interview at the Parker Children’s Center, which is a child-friendly setting where the child can safely tell their story with professionals trained to interview children in a nonleading manner. Additionally, both children were seen for medical exams at the Mississippi Children’s Safe Center.



The Brandon Police Department interviewed witnesses, reviewed phone records and text messages, and interviewed the defendant. The defendant confessed to committing some of the crimes reported by the victims. Based on the investigation, the defendant was charged with multiple sex crimes against the two victims.

“We hope this sentence gives some closure to the victims and their families who have had to endure these horrendous acts,” stated District Attorney Bramlett. “We appreciate the Brandon Police Department, Parker Children’s Center, and Mississippi Children’s Safe Center for the part they played in ensuring Coursey will serve prison time for the terrible things he did to these two innocent children.”

20 years is a good long time to reflect. He won't change and nobody expects him to. He will have to be watched closely upon release to minimize his continued risk to children.

There is no such thing as "I learned my lesson" regarding these people.

We don't need to thank the P.D., Bubba or the counselors. The person we need to thank is the one who 'walked in' and provided the report.

10:40 - You are almost perfet; your first two paragraphs are good. But you miss it with your last statement. In this case, we need to thank all four: PD, Bubba, Counselors, AND CERTAINLY the walk-in person. Also, I would add the Judge for not being lenient in his awarding a sentence.

11:23 gets it.

Does he not deserve forgiveness?

11:23 - What the unnamed person did took guts, real guts and risk and nerve mixed with a bit of fear.

What the rest did was simply their job. Not that they were not important, I just think in rank order, the initial person who walked into the police station is the most meritorious of them all.

Every time there is coordination of effort in closing a case, these people bust a gut to list each other and thank each other. None of them represent the real hero in this story.

You are at liberty to disagree with my opinion. Doesn't matter to me.

Aren't we all just perfect people I know this man he suffered with mental illness his entire life. He lost his mom a few years ago and my son who was his best and only close friend passed away soon after. If you proclaim to be people of God then you don't wish harm on him. What he did is unforgivable in your eyes but there is nothing he can do that our Heavenly father won't forgive and he still loves him. I pray that he finds healing while he serves his sentence and finds peace and gets the help he needs. For the person who said he can't change, Watch God πŸ™πŸΎπŸ™πŸΎπŸ™πŸΎ

20 years plus castration would be appropriate.

9:41 pm Please do not let him near children in your determination to be forgiving and your unwillingness to accept that your knowledge of who he is was flawed.
There is no evidence that sexual predators do anything other than gain expertise in avoiding detection which often includes pretending to embrace religion (which also later gives them access to more children) and by killing their victims. Indeed, a few have become " evangelists" and started their own cults.
You really should first learn more about child molesters. There are volumes of case studies and textbooks to help you educate yourself. The worst child abuser on my caseload was extremely charming and seemed a thoughtful, generous friend to all who met him.
Sexual predators choose professions and jobs that will give them access to a pool of victims.

GOD gives his position on pedophiles in two scriptures posted below.

Matthew 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

7 Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

Luke 17:1 Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!

2 It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

MDOC protects these people now. They have their own section in prison so general population can’t get to them.

Hello 9:41 - Zebras don't change their stripes; however, they all wish they were chameleons.

That you think he suffered from mental illness is irrelevant. It's also irrelevant that his mother died. Losing a parent has never in the history of the world turned somebody into a pervert.

And I'm sorry that you lost your son, but that too is entirely irrelevant to his situation, capture or conviction.

If the Lord had been inclined to change this man (or not create him), he would have followed His inclination already.

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.
