The Cornbread Starts to Burn

The wheels of justice are finally turning for Corey "Cornbread" Lepard after his indictment for capital murder was served on him last month. The Face of Many Tattoos stands accused of killing an elderly man for his motorcycle and bragging about it in 2022.   

JPD arrested Lepard on August 19, 2022 and charged him with the murder of 71 year-old Herbert McComb.  It alleged Lepard repeatedly stabbed the victim in the head in McComb's garage in his Raymond Road home.  A neighbor discovered his body in the garage on May 26, 2022 and noticed McComb's Kawasaki motorcycle was missing as well. 


JPD said a repair shop reported the stolen motorcycle and claimed Lepard said he had to kill a man for it.  JPD arrested Lepard.  Jackson Municipal Court Judge Taurean Buchanan denied him bond.  

A Hinds County grand jury indicted Lepard on December 16, 2022 for capital murder.  The indictment charges

on or about the 20th day of August, 2022, in the county aforesaid and within the jurisdiction of thi Court, the said defendant, being a male human being, did willfully, unlawfully, and feloniously, with or without any design to effect the death of Herbe1t McComb, a male human being, kill Herbert McComb while engaged in the commission of the felony crime of Aimed Robbery in violation of Section 97-3-79 of the Mississippi Code Annotated, or in an attempt to commit such a felony

The indictment was not served upon Lepard until April 11, 2025, nearly three years later since Lepard has been serving time in prison.   

Lepard is a graduate of the Hinds County Criminal Justice System's Catch & Release program.  A Hinds County grand jury indicted Lepard in 2017 for aggravated assault after he split a man's head open with a piece of wood in 2016.  Lepard pleaded guilty in 2019.  Circuit Judge Adrienne Wooten sentenced him to serve ten years in prison but suspended five years of the sentence.  She placed him on probation for five years as well.   


The firebug garnered  indictments for arson in 2019.  Circuit Judge Winston Kidd kidded around and sentenced him to serve ten years in prison but suspended five years of the sentence on August 31, 2020.  Earlier post on catch & release.   

MDOC gave Lepard credit for time served and released him. Thus he was free to kill and kill he allegedly did. Judge Kidd revoked the suspended five-year sentence after he was charged with murder.  A small consolation to the loved ones of Herbert McCombs.  

Hinds County placed a hold on Lepard so he went straight to the Raymond Detention Center for the service of the indictment and arraignment when his prison sentence expired.  

Lepard was arraigned on April 29.  The case is assigned to Judge Kidd.

Three words for this waste of flesh: Captive. Bolt. Pistol.

The Hinds County prosecutorial/ judicial system is an embarrassment. But what do you expect with its makeup?

in nature, poisonous creatures give us warning colors and patterns. The human version is face and beck tattoos. I quite honestly do not trust the critical thinking skills of anyone with tattoos. However, face and neck tattoos are specifically a red flag for me.

So, what makes anyone think he's going to stay in jail for any length of time, this time?

What a waste! Six-foot-one; blue eyes; abundant straight blond hair, with no apparent male pattern baldness in his future; tiny, tucked-back, lobeless ears... Despite that crippling middle name (which would be easy to keep hidden), the world should have been his oyster.

He looks like one of those gorgeous French-German hybrids from Saint Tammany Parish, and from around Monroe - basically the Britney Spears look.

What happened? Early abuse? Baby bottles filled with Mountain Dew? Too many vax jabs? Bad daycare? A PearlGirl mother, too absorbed with her own substance issues, to raise a child? Growing-up surrounded by people with no sense? Public Schools Stockholm Syndrome?

Oh, well... my husband and I have been obsessing, since we met at 17, with OVERCOMING our own cosmetic issues, and are amazed by people who've done nothing with their own naturally-good looks. In fact, we met, first week of college, in Beginner's Weightlifting. Thing is, the lifting and the supplements and the healthy foodways and the AVOIDANCE of substances, gave us MENTAL advantages, too.

Compensating for our ungainly biometrics, meant shopping the best clothing stores - an unexpected dividend of which being introductions to prominent Jacksonians who also shopped those stores. Same with daily contact, at the gym, with the people who ran (and owned) Mississippi.

I mean, Lepard's beginnings cannot have been more wretched than my own. I grew up in a tarpaper shack. And I looked like an Aye-Aye (today, even after decades of trainers, and tweaks by plastic surgeons, I look about like Lady GaGa, which isn't great). How did hideous Little Me get so lucky, and how did the genetically-blessed Lepard get so UNlucky?

While other people are hating-on him, I think I'll be praying for him.

What in the blue hell is the point to that self aggrandizing jumble of words?

Anonymous said...

@2:36 is likely a 4chan obsessed crypto-nazi who uses words like “phenotype” and obsesses over European features that he does not posess himself. Also likely to be JJ’s resident antisemetic troll.

Among other things, Mr. BitterOldMan, it was a blueprint for progress in life. I'm going to assume that when it comes to IPOs and real estate developments, you've tended to come away with the short end of the stick. Aren't we ALL lucky, though, that a master of self-aggrandizement is running the world, now.

100 GLORIOUS days...

Leopard was a WELL KNOWN and documented Latin King in the metro area to those of us in the business. SO glad we don't have any gangs or a gang problem here or in this state. If you believe that horsesh*t keep drinking the koolaid your mayors, police chiefs and sheriffs are feeding you.

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.
