A random assortment of crimes in the Mississippi Delta in the last week or so. In Clarksdale, the president of the school board was caught stealing three bottles of air freshener, and has been banned for life from Fred’s store. Dr. Roger Weiner, former candidate for mayor of Clarksdale, was stopped at a roadblock with a stripper in his car (allegedly). In Indianola, Lament Denton was arrested for possession of burglary tools. In Greenwood, Antiquarian “Pooh” Gibson, already wanted for murder sprinted out of a child support hearing. RIP former Indianola police chief Charles “Bloaty” Smith.
