For Certain Classes of Felons, the Killing is Free; Small-Town Montana Boy Makes Bad

 

The late Joseph “JoJo” Gregory Carnefix III befriended the wrong guy, and now, unless there’s a surviving brother to pick up the slack, there’ll be no JoJo IV.
 



Polite killer Jacob Burroughs, 19, pleaded guilty to negligent homicide with tears in his eyes in court on January 26. But don’t worry about Jacob—he got a free killing. He killed his friend while driving 110-120 mph.

By A Montana Reader

N.S.: Montana Reader sent me the following links, asking:

MR: What do you notice about this article:

“Teen Pleads Guilty to Negligent Homicide in Deadly Crash” (The Bozeman Daily Chronicle).

And gee, gosh, golly, here's "his" page at the paper's website: Jacob Burroughs.

... nice timeline to May 17, 2017 here (scroll down): “Warrants Again Issued for Bozeman Negligent Homicide Suspect” (The Bozeman Daily Chronicle).

Response by N.S.: That the BDC operative, Whitney Bermes, keeps referring to the 18 and then-19-YO perp as a “teen”?

That no matter how many times Jacob Burroughs re-offends, he just gets bonded out again?

That Burroughs gets depicted as if he were a patient, rather than a career criminal?

That Burroughs has no insight whatsoever, and just continues doing whatever he feels like doing?

That the BDO does not permit reader comments on these stories?

And I think this was the zinger you were thinking of: Burroughs just keeps committing crime after crime after crime, at every level, including killing someone, without ever getting punished.

MR: What I notice is that he looks black (mulatto, actually) -- no?

And that's a pretty small demographic in Bozeman and Montana.

[N.S.: Under President Donald J. Trump, the Census Bureau has literally “Xed” out “Race and Hispanic Origin” that I’ve been retrieving from their Website’s “Quick Facts” section for many years. However, the Bureau’s “American FactFinder” section reports that Bozeman is 0.5% “Black or African American,” and 2.1% “Two or More Races.” However, this section no longer provides stats on “Non-Hispanic Whites.” It reports that Bozeman is 93.6% white, but that would include some Hispanics (“Hispanic or Latino of any race”), who are listed as 2.9% of the population.

The Bureau’s “American FactFinder” section does, however, still contain such information on Montana, which it reports is 86.8% “Not Hispanic or Latino/White alone.” In other words, Montana is one of the whitest places in America, and Bozeman is even whiter.]

N.S.: Well, yes, he does, but that's so common for your garden variety career criminal in this country that I didn't remark upon it. Also, when I noted that he received affirmative action sentencing all the way down the line, the mulatto factor was a given.

I didn't consider the Bozeman factor, but affirmative action sentencing is apparently universal in America, regardless of local demographics.

Jacob Burroughs surely committed many crimes as a minor, and once he attained majority in the eyes of the criminal in Montana, at 17, he committed felonies (felony theft and felony burglary) which were switched to juvenile court. His felony theft of a shotgun form an unlocked vehicle was not cited on the list above.

So, he graduated from felony theft and burglary to negligent homicide (killing his friend “JoJo” while driving 110-120 mph, and flipping over the car), without ever being punished. And now, he’s going to skate for the killing, too.

I’ve written repeatedly on affirmative action criminal justice for blacks.

In the case of Far Rockaway, Queens’ Milan Taylor, felony assault and attempted murder are re-defined as “assault, criminal obstruction of breathing and second degree [sic] harassment,” which a plea bargain turns into “disorderly conduct”!

In Atlanta, Jamal aka Shamal Thompson was permitted to commit felony after felony without any punishment, until he murdered acclaimed, white cancer researcher Eugenia “Jeanne” Calle, 57.

In Delaware, there’s Radee Labeeb Prince.

The Navy supported racist, eventual black mass murderer, Aaron Alexis.

Tremaine Leigh is yet another case of AA criminal justice, Atlanta-style.

The media and academia respond to out-of-control black criminality by increasing their lying, in promoting the blood libel of “racial profiling,” and demanding “criminal justice reform.” Even some Republican elected officials have jumped on this bandwagon to hell.

And so it goes.

Jake was over the age of 18 and JoJo was under the age of 18. That becomes a death with aggravated circumstances in most locales. But forget about that it seems.

JoJo ran with the wrong crowd [person].

Jake apparently was a one boy/man crime wave. And as Nicholas points out you might not expect the negro perpetrator in Montana but there he is.

In my experience,mulattos are a mess,more often than not.The white half can't overcome the black half.Sounds like it could be a book and a horror movie--and it IS.This movie is played out daily in our country,with a sequel released every day after the previous one.

NBA trade deadline: Bulls close to dealing Nikola Mirotic to Pelicans for Omer Asik
By Chris Barnewall 9m ago • 1 min read
The Pelicans and Bulls are reportedly closing in on a deal that will send disgruntled wing Nikola Mirotic to New Orleans in exchange for big man Omer Asik. This is a huge deal for a Pelicans team that needed the shooting and cap space that this brings to their future.
GRA:So the black,violent instigator stays (Portis)and whitey vic (Mirotic) goes.Who would take Portis,in all honesty,after he assaulted and battered his teammate?
Obviously,and understandably,Mirotic could not mend fences with Portis,and it should be his right to work in a place where he feels comfortable and safe from violence.The Bulls should have released Portis and called the police the same day as the incident.
It was that simple and they blew it.
Btw,check out the writer's description of Mirotic---as"disgruntled."
Biased writing,anyone?

From what I understand his mom was never home a run around. Jacobbs mom has 4 kids and she was dating gross men who gave perks instead of setting an example. Hes not all to blame greed and bad parenting.

His mom is Christina Head (Bozeman) and she left 4 kids home and was out of the country, Jacob just turned 18 and had younger sisters at home.

If you look at Jacobs moms Facebook page she has her butt sticking out in the air, he has too little sisters.

I knew Joseph as a baby. He lived with his mom (Shannon) at my home and he was sweet and innocent. Then his dad took him away from his mom. And this Repeat offender is not a teen he's a adult doing adult crimes and getting away with them for money apparently. If his mother wasn't there for him why didn't anyone call Child Protective Services on her both Jacob and his mother should be in jail along with all who let this happen and defend this adult behavior. My heart breaks for this type of ignorance and injustice and don't even play the race card that 19 year old young man is crying not for Joseph he's crying because he didn't think he was going to get off. Yes he knew he was because he has every time. Shame on you Judge Brown. You all are criminals and should spend life in prison for Joseph's death R.I.P Joseph LOVE YOUR AUNTIE HEATHER in CA This is not over!

I wrote in this same page 2 or3 times and they never post i dont understand why. Im gonna try this again.I just want to let everyone know that maybe my sons dad joe carnefix senior may not blame jacob and the rest of joes family may not blame him but I do. They may forgive him but i do not. I dont know why everyone is making up excuses and
Acting like jacob ( a grown up young man) not kid man. Was driving his car 120mph and killed my boy. He should be held acountable just like any other
adult would be. What happened has nothing to do with how he was raised or
Weather hes sorry about what he caused.
You can come up with any excuse you want to and not one of them is reasonable excuse for what he did.Basicaly when that judge gave jacob that defferd sentencing says clearly that my sons life was not worth putting
that young man in prison to pay for what he has done. I bet you any amount of money that if it where to have been that judges son that jacob killed he sure and the hell would not of gave jacob no defered sentencing. Same as any one of you.So every one needs to quit acting like oh poor jacob. Hes a
Damn killer and unfairly did not get the punishment he deserves. As for my sons dad and his grandma they can all rot in hell for every thing they have done and taking my son out of state wrongfully without my knowledge. If he was living in california with me he would still be alive. Thats just a fraction of what ide like to say but i will leave it at that for now.
