Statement from Hinds County Sheriff Tyree D. Jones on the passing of Rep. Bo Brown

“It is with great sadness that I learned of the passing of my friend and dedicated public servant, Bo Brown.

Representative Brown devoted many years of his life to serving the people of Mississippi and the City of Jackson. From his time on the Jackson City Council to his service as a State Representative, he worked tirelessly to improve the lives of those he represented and made lasting contributions to our communities.

His commitment to public service, leadership, and willingness to help others will not be forgotten. We are all grateful for the impact he made and the legacy he leaves behind.

On behalf of the men and women of the Hinds County Sheriff’s Office, I extend my heartfelt prayers and condolences to his family, friends, colleagues, and the many people whose lives he touched throughout his years of service.

May God grant comfort, strength, and peace to all who mourn his loss.”

Long and transparent post below ⬇️

My recent experience as a guest on The Late Night Show with Rita Brent was truly remarkable. The production team behind the show demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism, coordination, and creativity. The logistics were seamless, and witnessing the talented individuals working behind the scenes—each contributing their expertise with precision and pride—was phenomenal. Their dedication is a testament to the strength of local talent in our community.

Being on the show brought about genuine laughter, transparency, and meaningful one‑on‑one engagement with Ms. Brent. Sharing that moment with her, in front of an energetic and supportive audience, was both entertaining and refreshing. The Capri Theater in historic Fondren served as the perfect venue—warm, accommodating, and rich with cultural significance.

I have long admired and respected Rita Brent—her work, her voice, and her extraordinary talent. She is the epitome of homegrown Mississippi excellence. I shared with her personally how proud I am of her journey and her continued success. It is vital that we uplift and stand behind individuals like Rita, whose creativity and dedication shine so brightly.

This experience reaffirmed the importance of celebrating our own, investing in local talent, and supporting the creative voices that help shape the identity of Hinds County and beyond.

Statement on the Passing of Sgt. Chris Moses

The Hinds County Sheriff’s Office is deeply saddened to share the passing of Sgt. Chris Moses (06/28/1967 – 05/04/2026), a devoted public servant who dedicated more than two decades of honorable service to the Hinds County Sheriff’s Office and the Hinds County community. His loss is felt across our agency and among the many people whose lives he touched through his work and his character.

Sgt. Moses will be remembered for his leadership, compassion, and selflessness—qualities that defined both his service and his relationships with colleagues and community members. His years with the Street Crimes Unit and the Mounted Unit showcased his versatility, professionalism, and unwavering commitment to public safety.

As his wife, Rosalind, shared on the day of his passing, “he loved being an officer,” and that love was evident in every aspect of his service. We join Rosalind, their beautiful children, his family, friends, colleagues, and the entire community in mourning this tremendous loss. We pray for peace, comfort, and understanding during this most difficult time for all who are affected by his passing.

Sheriff Tyree D. Jones states:
“Sgt. Moses was a friend, he was a dedicated servant, but an even better and exceptional person. I will miss him.”

Sgt. Moses’ legacy of integrity, service, and heart will continue to live on within the Hinds County Sheriff’s Office and throughout the community he served so faithfully.
