State’s criminal
justice system is a
mess, needs fixing
Yet another recently released Mississippi
Department of Corrections inmate is the main
suspect in yet another violent crime.
Gerry Byrd was released in March this
year after serving only a portion of his 25-year
sentence for burglary on a plea deal in 2013
to reduce the charge from armed robbery to
burglary.
Now, Byrd is the main suspect in a ... case in
which he is believed to have shot a woman he
was traveling with in a vehicle on I-110 in Baton
Rouge and thrown her out of the car before
fleeing north.
The victim was later found wandering with a
gunshot wound beside the interstate and tak-
en to a hospital with what was believed to be a
non-life-threatening injury. When Byrd arrived
in Woodville, police said, he nearly crashed
through the front doors of a convenience store
before entering the store brandishing two guns
and slapping the clerk around.
When a police officer arrived, the officer said
Byrd moved toward him so the officer shot Byrd,
who was airlifted to a hospital with life-threaten-
ing injuries.
