Hinds County Sheriff s Office reports spike in COVID-19 cases, Raymond

View Comments More than 70 people have tested positive for COVID-19 at the Raymond Detention Center and the Work Center, including 60 detainees and 14 staff members, the Hinds County Sheriff s Office said. During a Tuesday press conference, Hinds County Sheriff Lee Vance said 188 people were randomly tested at the facilities last week, including rapid tests of detainees being booked into the jail. He said the number of positive COVID-19 cases could climb as more test results come in. I think we have to face the fact that (the) jail population is a reflection of the general community, Vance said. And I think everybody knows . that we re seeing an uptick as it relates to this Delta variant in our area. So, as a result, more individuals that s coming into our facility will test positive.

Jackson crime: Homicides increasing for several reasons, officials say

Three of 35 were women Multiple reasons behind the rise in homicides: Drugs, neighborhood turf wars and domestic disputes  Vance recalled how during his patrol days with the Jackson Police Department in the 1980s, some shootings in the city were a result of turf wars between two rival gangs, the Vice Lords and Gangster Disciples. The gangs had migrated from Chicago to Mississippi. Some of the current killings are more a result of neighborhood rivalries than organized gangs, Vance said, although there are some similarities to gang activity, including underlying drug activity. In other cases, the homicides are a result of domestic disputes.
