2022 Mississippi's Jackson city has been America's murder capital and Governor Tate Reeves expanded state-run police jurisdiction, prompting criticism for partisanship and racism.
Jackson, Mississippi, has been America's murder capital for two years with a 2022 homicide rate of 78.8 per 100,000 residents.
Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba is seeking solutions, including a more accountable police force, while state legislators and Governor Tate Reeves expanded the jurisdiction of the state-run Mississippi capitol police department, creating a parallel court system that bypasses locally-elected judges.
Critics argue this expanded jurisdiction is driven by partisanship and racism, as murders predominantly occur in the city's impoverished areas.
