JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - A community meeting was initially called for Thursday evening by Jackson City Councilman for Ward 1 Ashby Foote as a way to get feedback on the crime issues at the M-Bar Sports Grill. Instead, most of the meeting was much less zeroed in and became a discussion of larger issues in the capital city.
The topic of Jackson crime sparks an emotional reaction with many community members like Natasha Wade.
