Free to Kill Again and Kill He Did (Allegedly)

or when killing is a family affair 

The Hinds County Catch & Release Program is very much alive.  Exhibit A: Cardarow Harden, killer extraordinaire.  

JPD arrested Harden in July 2025 for the 2024 murder of Marquiez Scott.  The homicide took place near the intersection of Highway 80 and J.R. Lynch Sweet.  Jackson Municipal Court Judge Lilli Bass set his bond at $1 million and transferred the case to Hinds County Court.  The defendant is 34 years old.  


The police allege Harden made the murder a family affair as his son, Cardarow Harden, Jr., participated in the murder as well along with Mario Brown.  The Court gave a million dollar bond to Brown and $250,000 to Junior.  

Harden has not been indicted for the homicide.  The District Attorney's Office said it has not received the file from JPD even though he was arrested nearly a year ago.  

Senior must have bonded out because JPD arrested him again yesterday.  The police affidavit accuses Harden of killing Michael Cannon on October 5, 2025.  Jackson Municipal Court Judge Jeff Reynolds denied bond for the defendant.  Judge Reynolds' order states Harden "was already out on bond for murder" and is "an extreme danger to the citizens" of Jackson and Hinds County.  

Kingfish note: Cannon was the son of Rene Shakespeare.  She once served as Election Commissioner and co-hosted with me on WYAB several times.

A culture of murder, non-payment, and taking everything but responsibility.

Bro is 4’11” tall. At 170 pounds, how does he move his arms to actually kill someone? The murders must be because someone stole his lunch.

Ok but HOW are these people bailing out? Surely the bail bond companies don’t just give anybody that commits murder a million bucks? They’d certainly never see that money again! Can someone explain this to me?

More proof that the only thing the Democrat Purposeful Crime Party loves more than crime, are the criminals that commit the crimes. Crime is one of the tactics Democrats use to create the flight required to take over and keep control of cities like Jackson.

Another tactic the Democrat Purposeful Crime Party uses is teaming up with RINO’s like Madison County Stupervisor RINO Gerald Steen, backed by RINO Ridgeland Mayor Gene F. McGee.

Stupervisor RINO Gerald Steen, backed by RINO Ridgeland Mayor Gene F. McGee are responsible for Democrat Mike Espy landing the Madison County Board Attorney job. The same Mike Espy

that in 1994 resigned as Agriculture Secretary amid allegations that he accepted gifts;

that allegedly admitted to taking $750,000.00 in lobbying fees from the country “Ivory Coast” led by Laurent Gbagbo that faced allegations of murder, rape, and torture of political opponents and later charged with crimes against humanity at the International Criminal Court; and

while hanging out with now convicts former Madison County Engineer Rudy Warnock and former Canton Aldermen Andrew Grant and Eric Gilkey, allegedly had a pair of boots purchased for him by Rudy Warnock.

When Madison crime rates spike like they always do after Democrats takes over, remember it was RINO Madison County Stupervisor Gerald Steen, backed by RINO Ridgeland Mayor Gene F. McGee that turned the county over to the Democrat Purposeful Crime Party.

It's been known for thousands of years: When a crime is not punished quickly, people feel it is safe to do wrong. >Ecc 8:11

If violent crime is to be curbed, it is only the intended victim who can do it. The felon does not fear the police, and he fears neither judge nor jury. Therefore what he must be taught to fear is his victim.

And this is why the commie pinko lefties want to disarm everyone but the Marxist ruling class.

Let me guess, Judge Johnnie McDaniels lowered his bond to $75K once the case was transferred to county court. Did I get it right?

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.
