A bond of $25,000 was established during her court appearance before Judge Grant Hedgepeth on Thursday.

In related news, the Claiborne County Sheriff’s Department has reported the recovery of a stolen vehicle alongside the arrest of an 18-year-old individual charged with capital murder in Starkville. Meanwhile, the Jones County Sheriff’s Department is urging public assistance in locating several individuals who are wanted for outstanding bench warrants.

Wanted Individuals and Community Assistance

Multiple people have been added to the sheriff department’s “wanted” list, largely due to noncompliance with their attorneys or failure to appear for court appearances. Among those sought is David Blackwell, 30, who is wanted for molestation and sexual battery of two girls under the age of 10. These serious allegations have heightened concerns regarding community safety.

Another individual, Marquise Lavonte Oliver, an 18-year-old, is being sought on multiple felony charges and is deemed armed and dangerous. His charges encompass directing youth to commit felonies, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, grand larceny, felony fleeing in a motor vehicle, auto burglary, and felony taking of a motor vehicle. Oliver, who is currently out on bond for prior crimes, continues to elude capture.

Community Reporting and Rewards

The Jones County Sheriff’s Office has set up a system where the community can report any information about wanted individuals. People with knowledge regarding the whereabouts of these individuals are encouraged to contact the Jones County Sheriff’s Office or reach out to the Jones County Crime Stoppers. A monetary reward may be available for tips that lead to Oliver’s arrest. Residents are advised to avoid approaching him due to his volatile nature.

Background Context

Jones County authorities have been increasing their efforts in monitoring and managing criminal activities in the area. The recent charges against Frazier highlight a disturbing trend regarding animal abuse and associated criminal conduct within the community. As the sheriff’s department seeks to safeguard both animals and residents, these latest developments emphasize the need for vigilant community involvement in reporting crimes and suspicious behaviors.

As investigations continue, both the community and law enforcement are hopeful for a swift resolution to these cases. Public cooperation will be essential in maintaining safety and addressing the concerns raised by these incidents.
