Excellent work by those law enforcement officers. They saved a ton of
money and punctured the wind right out of the racist left-wing media
sails.

BEAUMONT, Miss. (AP) — A Mississippi sheriff’s deputy was shot and
killed during a traffic stop by a suspect who was killed by police
following a car chase, authorities said.

George County Deputy Jeremy Malone was killed after he stopped a vehicle
around 5:15 p.m. Thursday on U.S. Route 98 in Rocky Creek, George County Sheriff Mitchell Mixon said in a statement.

Malone was the largely rural county’s second emergency responder killed
over the past week, following the death of a medical technician in a
roadside accident in nearby Alabama.

On Friday, the Mississippi Department of Public Safety identified
43-year-old Rickey Powell as the suspect in Malone’s killing. Police
said Powell led authorities on a chase out of the county. Powell was
killed by police as the pursuit ended, Mixon said.

After Powell left George County, the chase went through Greene County
into Perry County before Powell was fatally shot on U.S. 98 near
Beaumont, WLOX-TV reported.

The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation will oversee a probe into the shootings.

Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves confirmed the deputy’s death in a social
media post.

“Mississippi will always remember Deputy Malone,” Reeves wrote. “Our
state remains deeply thankful for all our law enforcement officers who
bravely place their lives on the line every day in defense of our
communities.”

Terry Rogers, a warden at a jail in George County, had known Malone for
15 years.

“He loved law enforcement, and he loved his wife and his girls,” Rogers
said. “Our little county is devastated with the loss of Jeremy Malone.
He will be missed, for sure.”

A procession was held Friday morning for Malone. Officers escorted his
body from the George County Courthouse to the Mississippi Forensics Lab
in Biloxi at 6 a.m., WKRG-TV reported.

On a Facebook profile that appeared to belong to Malone, the deputy
published a photo on Dec. 31 that referenced a Bible verse.

“There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s
friends,” a photo display of the Bible verse said.

The photo appeared to have been published to commemorate Mary “Katie”
Pipkins, who had been a volunteer firefighter for a department in George County.

Pipkins, who was also a medical technician for a Mississippi emergency
rescue service, died on Dec. 30 in Mobile, Alabama, after she was hit by
a motorist at the scene of an accident.

The 35-year-old man who hit Pipkins was arrested and charged with
driving under the influence, manslaughter and assault, police said.
