Killer of Door Dash Driver Gets 23 Years

 Hinds County District Attorney Jody Owens issued the following statement. 

 Hinds County District Attorney Jody E. Owens, II, announces the guilty plea convicting Shadrick Simmons of Second-Degree Murder. 

On November 2, 2022, Corey Price was delivering an order for Door Dash, when Shadrick Simmions attempted to steal the vehicle belonging to Corey Price. A fight ensued between Price, Simmons and others, which ended in the fatal shooting of Price.

god rest corey price.
he was murdered by a thug while simply trying to earn a legitimate living.

had he been armed , he may well still be alive.

id love to see a firearms dealer around here run a special on a good make and model gun for workers such as mr price , and include , if needed, a few hours in fundamental firearms training.

the police cannot protect you .

"The fullest extent of the law". What a chicken-shit judge and D.A. How could either of them announce 17 suspended while looking squarely at the family members?

Will serve 8;be released, and ready to kill again.

What logic did the Judge use to figure out suspending 17 years. Must be a stupid as shit algorithm.

Suspending 17 years from what should be a short rope and a long drop.

10:19 and 12:02 are CORRECT... what a shitty sentence. Should be immediate death penalty- same goes for these drive by shooters e.g. killed the 80 yo women on her couch the other night and even the girl that shot up the party on Easter and even shot her self... total disregard for life!

How is this not felony murder?

I agree that the death penalty should be reimposed in all capital murder cases. I also propose that the execution take place on the county courthouse square. This will highlight the fact that capital murder punishment is a reality.

to 12:19......this was felony murder......called capitol murder in mississippi

capitol murder is a murder committed in the furtherance of a capitol felony......in this case the capitol felony was armed robbery.

capitol murder can be punishable by a death penalty

but there has not been a death penalty sought by a hinds county district attorney in hinds county in over 15 years.

3 reasons why......

current and past district attorneys in hinds county dont know how to properly prosecute a death penalty case

current hinds county circuit court judges dont know how to properly preside over a death penalty case

also a death penalty can only be imposed by a jury...and hinds county juries refuse to hand down death sentences no matter what the defendant has done

does that answer your question?

If that release is a direct quote then no wonder the DA office is a joke. I wonder how long the perp would of gotten if he did this to a family memeber of the judge?

It was prosecuted at trial (plead guilty) as second degree because we have a spineless, unprepared, chicken-shit District Attorney say an easy way out with a plea deal.

And the spineless D.A. had the balls to announce the verdict as "...to the fullest extent of the law".

Life is cheap in America's radical city. Right? Yo Chowke, how is your "real time crime center" working out? Still working on those crime stats?

Should be life in prison. No excuse for only 23 years.

Someone just trying to make a honest living loses their life. Doesn’t seem fair.

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.
