Police finally make an arrest in the Tasia Fortune case
It took over a month, but the authorities in Jackson have someone in custody for a death that shook the whole community.
When Tasia Fortune was found hanging behind an abandoned building back in August, the silence from officials was deafening. Given the history of the region, the fear spreading through the local community was palpable and completely understandable.
Now, Jacques Ratliff is behind bars facing homicide charges. The police chief admits there was an association between the two, but she is playing it incredibly close to the vest regarding the actual motive or method. They are officially calling it a homicide, but they are keeping the evidence locked tight for now.
The mother of the victim says she felt a tiny bit of peace for the first time in weeks, though the question remains if this is the only person involved in the tragedy.
Justice often moves at the speed of a rusted tractor, leaving everyone to wonder if this is just the tip of the iceberg.
