Natchez woman cannot seem to 'have it her way'
Published Thursday, June 5, 2008
NATCHEZ — Someone did not want one woman to “have it her way” at Burger King on U.S. 61 North Wednesday morning.
At 3:15 a.m. the woman and her two passengers were sitting in the drive-thru when a black vehicle drove down Covington Road and began shooting. One of the woman’s passengers then returned fire.
The woman reported the incident and turned over the gun that was fired from her car Wednesday morning. Physical evidence was recovered from the scene and there is a suspect Natchez Police Chief Mike Mullins said.
No one was injured.

Thanks goodness no one injured. Not mentioned was that one of the bullets went through a window at the church across the street.

Drive By Shootings right here in Natchez. It is time to replace our judges with new ones that will lock these thugs up.

Pro, the judges ARE locking them up-so many, in fact, a new prison is being built in Adams County
Perhaps a less 'Old Testament' approach might work better-it could hardly be worse, could it?

That prison is being built for federal inmates and has nothing to do with our local crime problem. The judges, in particular Sanders, gives slaps on the wrists to this kids and the crime wheel keeps on a turning.

Bonzo, just what do you propose to do with them if you don't want to put them behind bars? Ignore them and hope they will kill each other off? That hasn't worked in Jackson.

I wish Sheriff Browm and Chief Mullins would implement a marksmanship program for the thugs. They could wear badges like we did in the Corps--Marksman, Sharpshooter, Expert.
Then they may not miss so much. One shot,one kill. Take some thugs off the screet. Like who cares??????
rolling eyes now

It's just criminality associated with drugs. Decriminalize drugs and use a fraction of the billions saved for drug education and all this will go away. Most of those federal inmates are non-violent drug offenders, eighty percent of that sixty percent are marijauna offenders. The local thugs are just doing what they see on tv which is mainly an advertisment for filling up the growing number of prisons.

I had no idea Burger King was even open at 3:15 a.m.
I guess this falls into the category of nothing good happens after midnight.

So she just HAPPENED to have her own gun at the ready?

Something is not right about this story. Hey democrat, we want a complete follow-up on this one. I bet it is a drug deal gone bad or a fight that carried over after a party or some other crap like that.

Everytime something goes bad, "let's replace the judges." And the only judge thats ever mentioned is Judge Sanders. I wonder why, since there is another Circuit court judge in Natchez but we shouldn't blame him for anything. And secondly, why should either be blamed in this case where in this article does it say anything about a former prisoner shooting at someone,it doesnt. It just says there was a shooting. Who's not to say that it was some kids who have appeared in front of the Youth court judge many times or at that someone not from Natchez. So, before you go throwing blame know the facts. But as we all know you HATERS don't really need a reason to complain about Judge Sanders any reason, no matter how unrelated it is to the story, will do.

Speaking of follow up, how come the ND did not cover the big multiple vehicle wreck yesterday evening down on 61S?

I don't even know her! I do however, know that other one you are speaking of and if this is the one from Fayette....don't EVEN get me started!

Talk with Danny Barber at NPD we will give you the facts. Also, the traffic at the hospital is getting worse. My wife was involved in one at 12 noon yesterday all because someone is unable to read the sign that says right lane closed ahead and darts in at the last milli second and cause a accident.

This article was a complete waste of time and space AND attempting to throw some humor in there with the "have it your way" Burger King slogan is just sad. There is no humor here, not even a chuckle. Unless you are working and have a reason to be out that late or early, you shouldn't be on the streets..... and Lord help anybody who DOES have a valid reason to be out there and gets innocently involved in that kind of situation.... Good Grief...

You are sooo right! If everyone notices whenever the really bad stuff goes on in this town it is always in the middle of the night! Sleep people! Ever hear of it?

No... those kinds of people are on a totally different schedule than us normal working folks..... they sleep all day while we work and most likely support their butts and then they have all night to wreak havoc..... just my opinion....

Ah, so we need a curfew to go along with shooting drug suspects in the street. With a little more brainstorming this problem can be cleared up quickly.

asandbb22, Judge Sanders gave me plenty of reason to dislike her in one of her rulings that has affected my life. So I have every reason to "Hate" on her anytime I please. When it happens to you, then we'll talk!

I still would like to understand how it was that this woman or her passenger just happened to have a gun and it was at the ready! I'm thinking like someone else thought earlier that something went on before all this and now this woman is playing the "dumb" card. MY MY I don't know WHY they were shooting at me!

firered, what did she do send your boyfriend to jail? Boo Hoo
Posted by overthehill60 (anonymous) on June 5, 2008 at 11:11 a.m. (Suggest removal)
I went with my daughter to court a few years ago concerning her ex-husband & a certain judge not to mention any names took us into his chambers & gave my daughter his e-mail address in case "she needed someone to talk to". The same judge is still doing it because I know a lady that went a few weeks ago & he did the same thing. I'm just glad I went into the chambers with my daughter!!
When we can't even trust the judge who can we trust?
I have a feeling we would be surprised at the people that carry concealed weapons. There's something just not right about this incident. I agree with (seeemeeego) I didn't even know the Burger King was open at 3:15AM
Posted by firered (anonymous) on June 5, 2008 at 11:52 a.m. (Suggest removal)
Actually no she did not "send my boyfriend to jail"... I don't go for thugs. What she did do however, is not give my murdered friend the justice he deserved and the guy who killed him (4 years ago) is back on the streets running around to do as he pleases. So I agree with everyone who says that JUDGE SANDERS DOES NOT DO HER JOB. She's the reason that crime is so rampant in Natchez. Her and any other judge like her are to blame.

Why are women out at 3:15am anyway? Why was BK even open at the time also?
Posted by firered (anonymous) on June 5, 2008 at 12:01 p.m. (Suggest removal)
BK is open 24 hours. The one over by Morgantown. Pretty much the only place open 24 hours anymore..

I'm not a bartender. I have a college degree, and you couldn't possibly know anything about me... Please do not publicly address me anymore. You can send me a message thru the democrat if you have anything else to say to me. I will however not respond because I do not have time for you or your childishness... Thank you!

Ya know, I don't know fire that well either and I know we have had our "discussions" on here in the past BUT DO NOT attempt to bash her on here. You have a comment about his story so be it, but do not bash on here.

((firered))I am not bashing I am simply asking you to back up your opinions. Don't back off now continue. And ((sayitloud))mind your own business I don't see you telling anyone else to stop bashing.

Swapmeet, sanders is not alone, johnson does the same thing in concordia. These slaps on the wrist given by them both is just frustrating and disgusting to the citizens of the MIs-Lou area. It is time we fought for a change in the judicial system that would reflect a change in our towns by electing judges that will lock up these criminals and get them off the streets of our communities.

And Johnson isn't alone in doing that...it seems like they ALL do the same! We do need new.

That would make a good commercial, then the king would come out and hand them a burger. That king is so weird. Why would a buger joint use something so scary to advertise food with. I bet a lot of small kids are scared of him.

About all these thugs shooting, the NPD, DA, or Judges can't protect you. There only there to investigate and judge after your dead. Take care of yourselves, I'd rather go to court for shooting a thug than have my family attending my funeral

It seems like someone's been sucker punched. My comment was only copied & pasted from firered's earlier comment so the point was made.
DON'T post personal comments if you don't want people to know your business. Sure at the moment it seems innocent but it will come back to haunt you.
firered check you mail.
