The Mississippi Secretary of State Charities Division has issued a Cease and Desist Order and Notice of Intended Actions against North Star Rescue, Inc. (a Mississippi non-profit corporation), revoked North Star Rescue’s charitable registration, and dissolved North Star Rescue with the Business Services Division.
North Star Rescue should not be operating, and Mississippians should refrain from donating to the Charity.
The Charities Division conducted an examination on North Star Rescue and determined approximately $20,000 of charitable funds received by North Star Rescue were used for non-charitable purposes.
For example, North Star Rescue made purchases at Xhale Smoke Shop, Game Stop, Roblox, Lash Studio, and Micro Wrestling.
The Charities Division gave North Star Rescue’s officers and directors numerous opportunities to reimburse North Star Rescue for the misused charitable funds. The officers and directors of North Star Rescue failed to respond to the Charities Division and/or make the charity whole by reimbursing North Star Rescue for the non-charitable expenses.
For questions regarding North Star Rescue or other charitable organizations in Mississippi, please contact our Charities Division at 601-359-1599.

This is Mississippi and that's how they roll here. Lie, cheat, steal; wash, rinse, repeat.
Whoa wtf you mean they actually check for this shit? Please tell me churches are exempt from this? My Jedi Temple operates as a 501(c)(3) and all of our purchases for religious items such as Jedi collectibles and media all falls under our religious expenses!
Hope you feel better soon!
To be fair, if you’re headed out to watch midget wrestling you should get your lashes done and be sure you’ve got a full vape.
I'm glad to see this. If I were running for SOS, I'd campaign on stamping out bogus nonprofits, especially those receiving government money.

Drink lots of water, get rest, get better.
Micro Wrestling? Come on, they just wanted to have a little fun!
I talked this over with HR and as you only have two sicks days remaining on the books you will have to take vacation days if your illness continues beyond two days.
Scumbags will be scumbags.
Search shows they operate in Lucedale, just for additional info. Could be wrong, as a disclaimer.
This outfit has gone to the dogs.
11:02 AM I see what you did there.
Anyone who’s known Jimmy long enough knows he’s a drunk and that’s why he can’t keep a real job
Stealing dog rescue non-profit money to buy your Micro Wrestling whatever is peak white trash.
Website is still up, check them out.
Illinois transplants, who came to the 'Sip to do dog rescue? Hmmmm.

Thanks to the JJ reader already archived the pages they will be deleting soon.
They claim a Lucedale location on theior website for what it's worth.

Another sad day for the animals of MS!
They come begging with teary eyes and a photo of an abused puppy. You give em' fifty bucks ... and they spend your donation on fake nails and midget wrestling.
My only fear is this might hurt donations to legitimate animal rescue groups.
When you feel better, KF, please give us an update on the Jackson Animal Rescue situation.
KF take a look at their FB page. It's 2:11pm as I type and the post says 23m ago. They're claiming that items purchased were for raffles to generate funds for urgent medical cases 🙄 Playing on sympathies to try to still get donations.
Poor Kingfish Bait..... At least it shuts your smart ass up for a little while but we'll take it!
I suggest to anyone, check the salary of the CEO of any charity you are considering donating to, then decide if you want to give your money to them.Many CEOs of many charities, and many of the employees make very high salaries. Be wary of this.
Hope you feel better soon, Kingfish
Fearless JJ Leader Pee Wee Kingfishbait Jr. feeling a widdle under the weather. Probably ate too much again or Einstein blew out a vocal cord.
Any rate ole fish breath will be back to his awful self soon enough!
Hey Mr. Democracy! Why are you not posting all comments? Can't take any perceived criticism? Dish it out but can't take it? Of course, that's what weasels like you do Fishbait.
Attention All: We hope you are aware Jackson Jambalaya The "Kingfish" posts fake posts and comments. Also he edits comments. He will deny but it's sadly true!
On a similar subject, I'd donate to help fix up the Rankin Co. animal shelter down on Marquette Rd.

Not much there...
'Churches' and 'religious' entities are defacto exempt from any financial oversight. Praise the Lord and pass the collections plate!
@ 7:51 and many of them are no more than political action committees
Dang, some of you people are miserable. Get better soon, Kingfish.
This is why we are the most giving, charitable people in America. Because we get snookered by a bunch of carpetbagging grifters. Ask questions people!
Kingfish we may not agree on much politically, but I do you get to feeling better. That said, I hope Donald Trump feels terrible. I hope he gets sand in his eye. I pray for him to have restless legs, anxiety, insomnia, heartburn. Running eyes, itchy throat, skin lesions and abscesses from under the skin. I want all these things all the time for him before he develops a slow acting form of anal cancer on the right side of his ass. The cancer starts in his ass, right side near the old wound, and moves slowly throughout his body over several years while he has to pay a Melania look-a-like to even be in the room near him to refill his stash of Depends. The old wound where Sascha Riley stabbed Trump with a tent stake while trying to escape his evil fingers, hands and actions. Kingfish may your fever flee but your idol Donald John Trump experience as much hell on earth as possible before he goes to the real place where he has a studio 1 BR apartment next to Lucifer and Lucifer listens to Jelly Roll all day, ery day LOUDLY.
I pray all these things in Jesus name, Amen!
2:56, 5:15, 5:25, et al: I’m guessing from your childish comments you are in elementary school, or possibly middle school. If not, please articulate, if you are able, what your beef is with KF, and why you chose a post on a scam animal shelter to lob what a feeble mind might consider an insult.
Their Facebook page is awesome! I don't think they read the order!! They are saying it's over taxes!! Another commenter references the IRS!! It's the Secretary of State! Not the IRS! No one should wonder why they screwed this up!!
Put them under the jail........rescues have been "full" for years. That's really how they get their spending fun money. YOU OFFER THEM CASH AND A HUNDRED POUNDS OF FOOD then suddenly they have an open spot.
Well, ain't you just pathetic.
I sent your threats to a friend at the US Secret Service. You had better hope that you are using a VPN connection.

Has it dawned on you that some of these crazy comments are actually coming from Jackson Jambalaya itself.
Whether yes or no he's the one publishing it.
I think we have a troll or nut job. He got mad a couple of weeks ago because he thinks I edited his comment when there is no physical way for me to do so in blogger. I have to accept or reject the comment in full. Then he went on a tear one night on here and is back again. Saying crazy comments but then when people call him out on it, now says it's me. Um, yeah. Sorry, I don't post comments under any name but Kingfish. As much traffic as this site gets, I don't need to manipulate anything.
Boo Whoo Whoo
