Suspect in murder of Miss. convenience store clerk had faulty ankle monitor​

TUPELO, MISS. (WCBI) – The suspect in the shooting death of a Tupelo convenience store clerk is in jail with no bond - but there are many questions about the case.

The suspect, Chris Copeland, had prior felony convictions but was placed on house arrest after violating parole.

Six days after he was shot and killed during a robbery at the Chevron Food Mart where he worked, friends and family of Primvar Singh turned out for a candlelight vigil honoring the memory of the 33-year-old who came to the United States in search of a better life.

Tupelo Police Chief John Quaka spoke briefly during the vigil, promising justice for the Singh family and hoping the crime will spark a change throughout the area.

“I pray this is the event that sets Tupelo and Lee County into the mindset that enough is enough,” Chief Quaka said.

Singh was behind the counter the morning of September 11 when security camera video caught the last moments of his life.

Singh is approached by a suspect, identified by police as Copeland. Police say Copeland, a convicted felon, points a gun at Singh, demanding money. The video shows Singh handing over the cash, getting on the floor when told, and even giving the suspect another bag of cash.

Police say Copeland jumps over the counter, puts the gun to the back of Singh’s head, and fires. Singh died a few hours later at NMMC. Copeland was quickly identified and was arrested as police were serving a search warrant at his last known address on Moore Avenue.

While police were able to identify Copeland through the security camera footage, along with a witness who spotted him at the Dollar General across the street before the robbery, an ankle monitor Copeland was wearing wasn’t working. We are told it either hadn’t been activated or wasn’t recharged.

That ankle monitor was placed on Copeland after his latest run-in with the law.

In November, Circuit Court Judge John White revoked Copeland’s post-release supervision on a 2018 charge of felony burglary and larceny of a dwelling. Copeland pleaded guilty to that and was given a 20-year sentence, with 17 years suspended.

Copeland was placed on five years of post-release supervision after his release, which he violated. Instead of sending Copeland back to prison, Judge White ordered Copeland to serve two years in the Mississippi Department of Corrections Intensive Supervision Program, allowing Copeland to serve his time under house arrest.

A spokesman with MDOC says Copeland made his weekly visits with his probation officer until April when the local MDOC office had a change of personnel. After that, Copeland never checked in even though he was under house arrest with an ankle monitor. He didn’t surface again until the September 11 robbery.

“We’re all hurting. Prim was a good person,” said District 6 State Senator Chad McMahan during the vigil.

McMahan says he is looking into the case to see how Copeland, who has multiple felony convictions dating back to 2015, flew under MDOC’s radar for months.

​

The lack of press coverage around the execution of Parmvir Singh by a career felon in Tupelo, MS is disgusting & predictable.​

Unpopular in Media

Just under a month ago, the community of Tupelo, MS was struck with a horrible crime when the career criminal Chris Copeland, concealing himself wearing a dark hoodie and armed with a hand gun, maliciously executed the owner of the Chevron Foodmart, Parmvir Singh, as he was working at the front counter. Video surveillance of the scene unambiguously shows Copeland forcing Singh onto his knees at which point he shoots him in the back of the head at point blank range. Singh was not fighting or resisting or struggling against Copeland. He was doing everything he could to comply with this criminal. However, despite that, Singh is murdered in a fashion that really has no other description that straight up evil and reprehensible EXECUTION. Singh was a pillar of the community and this brutal execution has hit the town hard. A video showing the execution exists online and isn't too hard to track down, but I will refrain from posting it here simply out of respect for Singh. Local news coverage about the mourning of Singh is available, while a short background on the executioner Copeland can be found in this article.
A depraved crime of this level, when a person is murdered so gratuitously and with so little regard for human life as we see here, is so outrageous and such a clear incarnation of evil that this story should unquestionably be receiving national coverage, especially with the level to which people of Asian background are being targeted with violence by certain subsets of people in the US. However, despite this, the story is being ignored and marginalized on a national level, with it barely receiving any attention or coverage. A quick search even reveals that national news outlets in India are covering the story, yet, in the US, the news media can barely be bothered. We all know that if Singh was of some other "protected class" of people that the deranged media machine actually cared about, this story would be national news with 24/7 coverage, New York Times penning guilt pieces about how "ashamed" we all should be, marches through major cities, Biden would be on national TV condemning segments of society, etc etc. But because this story goes against the prevailing narrative the media wants to push, it is ignored. The Democrats in power ignore it, mainstream media ignores it, cause they all want to brush it under the table. This crime is so heinous and repulsive on such a fundamental level that attempting to ignore it and brush it under the table is repulsive and disgusting, yet absolutely predictable. Sadly, the reasons behind this ignoring of the is truth, at the end of the day, is all about skin color. Everyone involved had the wrong skin color for this to be a national news story. And that fact is something the something that mainstream news machine and the politicians who perpetuate it should all be ashamed of.

After making a google search of "Primver Singh" and "Chris Copeland" I found no evidence of this story being national news.

From local news organs I found that Copeland had been convicted, and that the prosecutor was asking for the death penalty, but I have not found what has happened since the trial.

So my initial statement stands: if a white man did this to a black man it would be national news.

Because it does not follow the favored script of blacks as innocent victims of irrational color prejudice, the mainstream media covered it up.

I never heard a thing. The entire country knows about that case with the two white guys and the black jogger, and yet because the races didn’t “fit,” it remained only local news in this case.

And the killer in this case should never have been walking free. I assume MS has the death penalty, and he should get it.

I agree. I do not think he is walking free, at this time, but am not sure. This casual murder videoed on tape with sound, pretty well makes it clear, he was a continuing danger to society, and should not have been out with an ankle bracelet to begin with.

The American Conservative

Parmvir Singh: Say His Name​

And Eliza Fletcher. And Brianna Kupfer. Where are the media mourners of those crime victims?

Every day seems to bring another crime video. This one is especially grim. The store clerk gave the thug everything he demanded, and posed no threat at all to him. The thug shot him simply because he, the thug, is an animal.



Maybe we should rethink mass incarceration. People like Copeland are not fit to live among decent people like Parmvir Singh.

The Los Angeles-based pseudonymous writer Peachy Keenan, in American Mind, talks about how she was nearly killed because she ignored her instincts about not going around a group of dodgy looking black men, out of fear of being racist. Excerpts:

My son emerged from the gym with his team. I stared at him and realized that if they had walked out ive minutes earlier, it might have been a bloodbath. Rounds had gone through at least two nearby cars, including one containing the parent of a boy on the team, but by some miracle no other innocent people were hurt.

The cop, a Latino guy, advised me to stay away from the park, since it’s near the projects that “the gang controls.” He was telling me to listen to my inner racist! What if I’d pulled up to the parking lot, taken a look at the group of men, and decided not to go in? Would that have been the right thing to do—or the racist thing to do?

She goes on:

Maybe if 32 year-old mother-of-two Eliza Fletcher had been a little bit more “racist,” she would not have been kidnapped, beaten, raped, and murdered in Memphis last week.

Last year, a beautiful young UCLA student named Brianna Kupfer was working all alone in a fancy furniture store in Los Angeles when she was brutally stabbed to death by a man who wandered in. Her gut had told her he was dangerous. She even texted her boss to report that she “was getting a bad vibe” about the killer minutes before he attacked her. Maybe if she’d been slightly more racist, she would have left the store and waited for him to go away. But instead, she dismissed her fear—perhaps because she had been instructed for years to ignore your gut feelings so you don’t look racist—and stayed put.
Brianna was stabbed twenty-six times and bled to death before help arrived.

I had just read Keenan's essay this morning before getting in the car to drive. I turned on NPR, and listened to the host giggle and gush while talking to a black gospel singer about her group's new album, and focusing on a song inspired by the murder of George Floyd. It made me mad -- not because the song is bad (it's very good), or because the Floyd killing wasn't an outrage (it was), but because here we are, two years after the Floyd killing, and our national media are still wetting their pants over white supremacy. Meanwhile, if we hear about the Parmvir Singhs at all, it's to note what happened to them, and quickly to move on. Joe Biden held a White House summit this week to fight white supremacy. Are we going to see a White House summit to fight against the kind of scumbags that killed Parmvir Singh, Eliza Fletcher, Brianna Kupfer, and any number of black victims whose names and faces rarely make the news? Who will write the rousing gospel number memorializing Parmvir Singh? As Peachy Keenan writes:

There were no rallies, marches, or protests in honor of Eliza Fletcher or Brianna Kupfer. No one bothered to organize a commemorative riot, or even host an honorary CVS looting in their names. No Target was ceremoniously burned to the ground in her honor. No one screamed “SAY HER NAME!” at a candlelight vigil attended by weeping mayors and city officials. No t-shirts were printed up with their faces on them. The President and Vice President stayed silent. Nancy Pelosi did not kneel for two minutes in silence in the halls of congress. No one held a press conference and said, “Brianna Kupfer looked like she could be my daughter.”

Nothing will happen because of Kupfer, Fletcher, and Singh -- at least nothing visible. But things will happen quietly. You can't make people not notice.
Just down the road from me, New Orleans has the highest crime rate in the US, with a murder rate almost four times greater (per 100,000 residents) than Chicago's. The Wall Street Journal reports:

This year to date, the New Orleans homicide rate is up 141% compared with the same period in 2019, according to the Metropolitan Crime Commission Inc., a nonprofit that works to reduce crime in the city. Shootings are up 100%, carjackings 210% and armed robberies up 25%. The homicide rate is on pace to surpass last year’s rate, which was the worst since Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
In New Orleans, city officials and residents point to an overwhelmed police department as a major factor. The city has about 50% to 60% of the officers it needs to offer adequate protection for residents, estimated Ronal Serpas, who was the city’s police superintendent from 2010 to 2014 and is now a criminal justice professor at Loyola University New Orleans.
“We’re in a crisis of crime and a crisis of confidence in this city,” he said.

This is in part a gift from the Obama Justice Department:

Police officers and political leaders, including Democratic Mayor LaToya Cantrell, say the department has been hobbled in part by fallout from a decade-old agreement between the federal government and the city to address corruption and other issues, which they say has resulted in crackdowns on officers for minor infractions. Police officers are leaving the force more quickly than the city can replace them, making it easier for criminals in the city.
“The criminals are more bolder and more brazen,” said New Orleans Police Superintendent Shaun Ferguson. “They do not believe they will face any consequences for their actions.”

The local DA, Jason Williams, is -- surprise! -- one of the George Soros "soft on crime" district attorneys you've heard so much about. Crime is going to kill the Crescent City if they don't get it under control. One more clip from the WSJ:

Ranelle Leitch, 64, has been coming to New Orleans from her home in Hunt, Texas, a few times a year for decades to enjoy the city’s restaurants with her husband, a retired dentist. For one favorite restaurant, they used to take the St. Charles streetcar back to the French Quarter after dinner. Then a waiter warned them to take a car instead. They now rarely leave their hotel when it’s dark. “At nighttime, we don’t roam the streets,” she said.

I thought for half a second recently about moving to New Orleans, a city that would fit me perfectly, but I decided against it. I don't want to be robbed or murdered, and I have no faith that it's going to get better there anytime soon.
The WSJ mentions two especially horrible New Orleans murders in this current wave. Augustine Greenwood, 80, was shot to death by a stray bullet as she left her grandson's high school graduation. Here she is:

The other one was Linda Frickey, 73, who died when she was dragged to death in a carjacking. Her arm was severed. Four teenagers -- a 17-year-old boy, and three younger girls -- were arrested and charged. Here she is:

Do you think American society, as it stands today, has the focus and the determination to stop this crime wave? No, me neither. What's it going to take? Parmvir Singh's people are the kind -- Asian immigrants -- who build up society and cities, not burn them down. Our country is not administered -- not at the governmental, business, academic, media, or private institutional level -- by people who give a rat's ass about the Parmvir Singhs, who never cause trouble, and who just want to live decent lives of work and accomplishment, and raise their children to do the same. This is increasingly not a country that works for them.
