On Wednesday, August 8, 2012, at
approximately 1:00 a.m., Marquis Carl Richmond, aka “Ke Ke,” age 20, from Moss
Point, Mississippi, turned himself in to authorities at the Stone County
Correctional Facility in Wiggins, Mississippi. Richmond is the last of three
individuals wanted by the FBI who remained at large following the August 1,
2012 multi-agency narcotics round-up. Adam Williams was arrested on August 2 in
Moss Point, Mississippi, and Steven Brian Hye surrendered to members of the FBI
Safe Streets Task Force in Pascagoula, Mississippi, on Saturday, August 4.
These three individuals all face conspiracy to possess with intent to
distribute cocaine and/or other drug charges
Daniel McMullen, Special Agent in Charge
of the FBI in Mississippi, stated, “I appreciate the substantial amount of
coverage given to our search for these individuals by the media, and the
public’s response to our request for assistance in locating them. Through
mutual cooperation, the press, the public, and law enforcement can achieve our
common goal—making our communities safer for our families.”
The public is reminded that indictments
and arrest warrants contain only charges and are not evidence of guilt.
Defendants are presumed innocent and are entitled to a fair trial, at which the
government has the burden of proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
