The FBI has charged the mayor, the district attorney, and the city councilman with participating in a bribery scheme in Jackson, MS.
Hinds County District Attorney, Jody E. Owens II, 43;
Owen II was elected in 2019 after his campaign was funded by the Mississippi Justice & Public Safety PAC. This PAC received 100% of its 2019 funding from George Soros.
Owens II is the second Hinds County DA to be funded by George Soros and the second Soros-funded DA to be charged with a crime while in office.
In 2015, Soros funded Robert Shuler Smith’s re-election campaign through the same Mississippi Justice & Public Safety PAC. Within a year, Smith was charged with crimes three times.
He was accused of pulling a gun on his ex-fiancé and threatening to kill her. This resulted in a variety of domestic violence-related charges. The state also charged him with providing information to assist criminal defendants and conspiracy to hinder prosecution. Local Hinds County juries (73% Black) returned with hung decisions and acquittals for his corruption-related charges as a prosecutor. Similarly, the jury was hung on all his domestic violence charges as well.
