Leon Seal was in Rankin County Court last week for some mess about some mess. Seal is well known to the Pearl police and Rankin County criminal justice system as he has been repeatedly arrested over the last few years. Some consider him a civil rights activist, targeted by the police while others consider him a troublemaker who well, just can't stay out of trouble.
Rankin County Court Judge David Morrow held an indigency hearing for Seal on November 18. Pearl police arrested Seal on June 26 and charged him with trespassing, false report of a crime to a law enforcement officer, and disobeying a police officer/failure to comply. Pearl Municipal Court Judge Richard Redfern found Seal guilty of all charges and sentenced him to a $500 fine and six months in jail but suspended two months of the jail sentence.
Seal appealed his convictions to Rankin County Court but must pay a cost bond of $1,223 before the appeal can proceed. Claiming indigency, Seal asked the Court to waive the bond. Judge Morrow held a hearing to determine whether Seal was indeed indigent.
Seal said he was not working. He claimed to be a mechanic but said he had not worked for nearly two months and had applied for disability. The defendant said he had not worked due to PTSD caused by Pearl Police. Upon questioning by Judge Morrow, Seal admitted his wife had a full-time job, he and his wife owned a house (with a mortgage), and the family owned four vehicles.
Judge Morrow ruled Seal did not qualify for a public defender but gave him an additional thirty days to pay the cost bond or else his appeal would fail.

What’s this guy in jail for?
1:50 we know that reading is an acquired skill,but now we a have a new reading gate in the state that has proven to be quite successful. Many schools have 'learning counselors' that are helping those that didn't do well when trying to get out of the third grade due to their failure to comprehend the concept.
Realize you probably are no longer in one of Rankin's fine schools today, but maybe they could allow you to monitor one of their classes and benefit from some of their volunteer counselors to help you achieve this wonderful skill.
Then you wouldn't have to ask others questions like this that are answered clearly and specifically in the post your question is attached to. Try it out - you'll like it.
Is his father the former NFL player with the same name? Now in law enforcement in Hinds County.
PTSD… Scared of Pearl
PD… Yet shows up at Pearl PD almost daily. Make it make sense!!
Judging by his videos, I thought he worked at footlocker. Looks like 50% off P Diddy…
Mr 2:10, thanks for your rambling nonsensical attorney garbage of a response that no one really wants to read. 1:50 was asking a simple question. About 95% of the population do not want to or feel the desire to read criminal legal documents.
If only there was a post that explained why he was arrested and convicted
It's high-time the jurdge quit F.A. and let this boy F.O.
Smart asses always come out when their bellies are full.
Thanks 5:04 but if those folks want to know the information - that has been put in front of them as part of the post about the criminal, then they either 1) really don't care, or 2) are incompetent to understand.
The information was part of the post - and if one is interested in the issue their interest should include doing a little work on their own part. Took about a minute and a half to do so. So yes, there evidently are a few folks in this world, or this readership, that is too damned lazy to do anything for themselves and want to be food-fed all the information they feel a need for - but those are the same folks that will believe anything they read on social media and especially problematic these days, they will believe AI generated crap.
I don't believe your 95% number - in fact, I think you have it almost in reverse. But you being a part of those that are too lazy to do anything for yourself, you probably believe that all the rest of the world is just as worthless as you are.
So I stick by my point - either bother to read (and hopefully have the ability to comprehend) or else, keep your fingers focused on whatever porn site you enjoy and stay out of these discussions.
I do realize that you may be unable to understand "rambling nonsensical attorney garbage" but that is what the entire post was about, and frankly the question being asked required an understanding of "attorney garbage", although it was not rambling, nor nonsensical - at least to people of a medium IQ. The fact that excludes you is beyond our abilityn to control
Sounds like laziness and / or inability to read basic English is the problem. The Microwave/FB generation want everything handed to them in seconds and they won’t out effort into anything….
Yup. The commenter went off just the headline and opening paragraph. He was just too lazy to actually click on the headline and read the story. Perhaps he needs to go hire a nursemaid.
JPS alumnus?
KF...
Earlier this year, Leon, somehow got the attention or either contacted what is known as First Amendment Auditors, and they made their way to Mississippi. They first caused problems in a town North of Jackson but I do not remember which one and ALL videos have been removed. Then, they made their way to Pearl where a disbarred attorney with the you tube channel geurella news was arrested and threatened Judge Redfern. He faked a heart issue and was carried away by ambulance. Another you tube "frauditor" Channel name James Freeman was also there calling the Pearl Police chief vile names. Leon was also in the video. ALL of those videos have been removed. However, the disposition of the case has never been posted. I send you this so you can follow up. Seems as if when the Pearl police arrested a "frauditor", they got outta Dodge and left Leon to do the best he can.
I know they don't teach reading in Rio Linda but please learn how to read. This guy is Seal. The Constable is Seals. One has an "s", one does not have an "s". That means they are different names. Understand?
The frauditor pled guilty to both charges and left the state.
