I recall that a man in South Mississippi(Forrest county) being sent to Parchman for ten years without parole, based solely upon a thirteen-year old girl standing up in court and pointing at “Ronnie T.” saying, “that’s the man that molested me.” His twin brother(Robert T.) was charged with the same crime, but after Ronnie T.’s conviction the DA dropped the charges.

Ronnie died in prison of a brain tumor just weeks before his scheduled release. His family was denied permission to let Ronnie go home and die under hospice care. Had he lived, he would have had to register as a”sex offender.”

Typical Forrest County justice sysetm. It stinks!

{SNIP}
¶ 10.   Even if Mingo had been arrested in response to the victim’s statement, Mingo cites no authority for the principle that a witness’ testimony is insufficient to establish probable cause.   The State persuasively argues that since the uncorroborated testimony of a victim can provide the basis for a finding of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, see Collier v. State, 711 So.2d 458, 462 (Miss.1998), it must by definition suffice for the lesser finding of probable cause.

¶ 11.   This claim is without merit.

¶ 55.   This claim is without merit….

…¶ 57.   Mingo falls far short of his burden of showing that the character and weight of the evidence was such that no reasonable juror could have found Mingo guilty.   The State proffered direct evidence in the form of the victim’s testimony and Mingo’s statement to police.   Despite Mingo’s assertions to the contrary, such evidence is not circumstantial.  Garrett v. State, 921 So.2d 288, 291-92 (Miss.2006).   Mingo also alleges inconsistencies between the victim’s testimony and that of other witnesses.   However, determinations of witness credibility are matters for a jury to decide.   Hughes v. State, 724 So.2d 893, 896 (Miss.1998).   Though no direct evidence was presented that Mingo touched the victim specifically to satisfy his lustful desires, this Court has held that such recognition may arise from the circumstances of the encounter itself.  Ladnier v. State, 878 So.2d 926, 930 (Miss.2004) (citing Bradford v. State, 736 So.2d 464, 466 (Miss.Ct.App.1999)

[The "encounters" were part of the "weird" techniques in voice instruction ]

It(the Brewer /Brook jury) was pulled from that same jury pool over in Lowndes/Noxubee county from which Forrest Allgood selected the hanging jurors to convict Heritage Music instructor Julian Mingo for “rubbing a Heritage high school student through his pants.” Hanging Judge Jim Kitchens sentenced Mingo to thirty-years in prison(three, ten-year terms.)

Funny thing, though, it took the Heritage HS student six months to figure out that he was being “molested” by Mingo.

The case really was centered around where the diaphram is located on the human body. Mingo had warned the student that he had to do some “weird” techniques in his voice instruction lessons. There was never any penetration or exposing himself to the student. Judge Kitchens permitted the trial to turn into a three-ring circus with the public defender quitting midway through the trial, but later returning after Kitchens threatened him with contempt of court. At that point, Judge Kitchens should have declared a mistrial. Judge Kitchens denied Mingo introducing exculpatory evidence, claiming that Mingo delayed its introduction to gain a “tactical advantage.”

Of course it didn’t help Mingo’s case that the HS student was the son of a local female law enforcement officer. And worst of all, Mingo’s public defender never cross- examined the HS student after his damning testimony. Mingo’s request for a change of venue was denied. He refused plea deals, still maintainig his innocence.

He was railroaded by Forrest Allgood, Judge Kitchens, the public defender, the jury, and the Mississippi Supreme Court on appeal.

A few years after the Mingo case, a local businessman/aristocrat, the grandson of a former Corps of Engineers building contractor, molested the pre-pubescent(six-years of age?) son of a close family friend–there was penetration, too. Gil D. did a plea deal with Forrest Algood and was out of jail in two years.

The Natural State’s beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. And it’s beauty has been enhanced further since the departure of two of the world’s most infamous international war criminals:Bill and Killery Clinton.

WOW!

I guess you’re not the Johnny Dupree who’s running for governor in MS, then. He wouldn’t be a leftist Chomskyite whack job like yourself.

In this review of Lion of the Desert , the reviewer attributes the bombing death of Moustapha Akkad to “Muslims.” The speculation at the time was that it was Gerry Ball-type “hit” by Israel’s Mossad. There is no proof linking either group to his death.

I chose not to name the “Lebanese American” lawyer because he was only a minor player in the scam, doing the paperwork for Judge Robbie Taylor, an elder of Parkway Heights Methodist Church, and his co-conspirators. Judge Mills had his “Pigmeat Markum” moment and somebody had to do some time! So, Mike Mills scapegoated the “Arab.” I meant it as a “tongue-in-cheek” commentary on Mills and the Mississippi Supreme Court.

I am an “Arabist,” having become “educated” in US perfidy around the world while working with the Army Map Service in Libya for two years, followed by a nine-month tour in Ethiopia during the border war with Eritrea, when the US Green Berets went in to prop up the dictator Halilie Selassie, The Lion of Judah.

I voted for the Lebanese Ralph Nader everytime he ran for POTUS. And I still miss the credible reporting from the Middle East of Lebanon’s Al Manar, which was banned from broadcasting by Colin “The Reluctant Warrior(sic)” Powell.

And I am sickened by the Romanoff-esque buthchering of the Khaddafi family by Obama Mabus Killery, Susan Rice and the Neo-Con State Department cabal. And if the ICC were properly adjudicated. they would be sitting in the dock at the Hague along with their NATO partners in crime. On the list of my ten best movies in my lifetime, is The Lion of the Desert, the saga of Omar Makhtur during the Libyan resistence against Italian occupation. Makhtur is played by Anthony Quinn with Oliver Reed as the Italian General Graziani. Graziani was convicted of war crimes after WW2. The film was banned in Italy until Khaddafi made his historic “rapprochment” trip to Rome. Omar Makhtur’s eighty-year old son accompanied Khaddafi on the trip.

And all those lies about Lockerbie and the Berlin La Belle Disco? If that other tribunal at the Hague had been properly adjudicated by the Scotish judges, Al Megrahi would have walked free like his co-defendant.

How’s that for Arabist credentials?

I agree. He is. And I loathe him. But he is one hell of a smart, elitist commie bastard, and an uncommonly fine lawyer.

I guess I trust smart elist commie bastards to do the right thing more than dumb shit rednecks.
