 A Texas woman placed razor blades into bread for sale at a Biloxi Walmart last year because she was "mad at Mississippi."   

Several people complained to the Biloxi Police Department in December 2025 about razor blades placed in bread at two Walmart stores.   Security camera video showed a woman tampering with loaves of bread on December 12.

The FBI's probable cause statement states: 

6. Officers canvassed this area and located BENSON walking near Percy St and Couevas St. in East Biloxi, MS. She was detained and transported to the Biloxi Police Department. BENSON provided the name of Camille Johnson. Officers later determined her actual name was Camille BENSON.

7. Investigators met with BENSON in the Biloxi Police Department interview room and read her Miranda Rights to her. BENSON waived her right to have an attorney present during the interview by signing a Biloxi Police Waiver of Rights form and agreed to speak to the investigators without an attorney present. During this interview, BENSON confessed to placing the razor blades in the bread items listed for sale in this case. BENSON stated the reason for placing the razor blades was because she had received news that her mother had died, and she was mad at the state of Mississippi.

Biloxi police recovered more razored bread items.  Although she has not been indicted in Harrison County, the Justice Department prosecuted the case.  A federal indictment charges Benson with tampering with consumer products.   The indictment states: 

On or about December 12, 2025, in Harrison County, Mississippi, in the Southern Division of the Southern District of Mississippi and elsewhere, the defendant, CAMILLE BENSON, with reekless disregard for the risk that another person would be placed in danger of death or bodily injury, and under circumstances manifesting extreme indifference to such risk, did tamper with a consumer product that affected interstate commerce, specifically loaves of bread and muffins, that were being offered for sale by Walmart, by introducing foreign objects, namely razor blades and fish hooks, into the loaves of bread and muffins.

Benson faces a maximum penalty of up to ten years in prison and/or a $250,000 fine.  

The case is assigned to U.S. District Judge  Halil S. Ozerden.  Benson is scheduled to go to trial on July 13.  Hmmmm.... what else happens on that day?
