Whenever Boyd has been confronted with these allegations, he has stated that his little deck was being used to entertain "business associates." When that did not pass the smell of body odor test, Boyd changed his story and claimed that he was actually using the rooftop as a dance studio. DWB put a lot of thought into this cover story, going so far as to create a Facebook page for his harmless endeavors.
This studio fits in perfectly with the downtown area. After all, what could be more culturally-rich than a place to take ballroom dance lessons from an accomplished ballroom dancer the caliber of Benjamin Boyd?
Unfortunately for downtown residents, it's complete and utter bullshit. Despite lie after lie from Benjamin Boyd, here's a little invite to a party that we found on the Skybox's Facebook page:
And if you are interested next week, you can attend this one for some late night antics:
When we saw this, we thought perhaps someone might be playing a little trick on Benji Boyd. Surely he and his compatriots were not stupid enough to put this on the Internet after months of bullshitting the City. We were wrong. They are just that stupid. Check out the party pics we found:
According to this article in DownSouf Magazine (published September 15, 2011),
If you want to check out some soulful spoken word and poetry give The Locker Room and Syky Boxx Poetry a visit. Admission to the poetry event held every Friday night is $5/drinks specials include $1 longnecks and free walk me downs for the ladies. Try to arrive by 9 pm if you want to get a good seat…. Come mingle, it’s a good look.Unlicensed, illegal rooftop bar. No permit. Lie after lie to the City. Illegal alcohol sales. No fire inspection. And all the time thinking the City of Jackson and JPD are too stupid to catch them.
Next post, we will discuss Benjamin Boyd's thuggalicious partners in this venture.
"Created by Latonia King Williams." Correct me if I'm wrong, but is that the same Latonia King that was recently kidnapped and is the wife of Sean King, owner of Locker Room who was convicted of murder in his recent past? Maybe I'm wrong...but this is getting very interesting.
ReplyDeleteSky Box = Syke Boxx = 9th Floor Loft = Rooftop Locker Room.
ReplyDeleteNow why would a place give itself so many names on the internet? Hmmmmmmmm. Isn't it hard to find a bar if it isn't known by one name? Make a place hard to find....discreet....No! Wait! I get it...no wait...let me think about this some more.
4:57 you are getting WARM. YES, as her husband is one Sean Antonio. See WLBT story on Google.
ReplyDeleteall of your derogatory rhetoric isn't gonna solve any gripes that you may have with whatever. its just gonna make people hate you more than they already do. you can say, "i dont care if they hate me or not" but you do care. this is why you're going to these lengths. people want to be entertained. and what the people want, they get. you won't stop it. find a hobby.
ReplyDeleteActually, this blog is entertaining especially with poor grammatical structure contained within your white trash comments.
ReplyDeletehave to disagree 8:58. I know a little about this situation and I know that Boyd and locker rm people lied to Henry Michel and said nobody was partying up there. Michel then turned around and told Raju, the City, VIPs others that they were not partying on the roof. Now they go out and find all this stuff that shows Boyd/L.R. was lying. that makes michel look real bad.
ReplyDeleteDo not agree with the attack on hmichel b/c he was misled by boyd and LR. But I think they have to evict their butts now for lying and making them look like crap. If they dont evict them then it makes hmichel and dr. Raju look guilty.
This asshat (DWB) needs to be shut down. Period. He doesn't have a permit to operate a club. Hell, I don't think the Locker Room even had one for the longest time even though they were serving drinks. Then again, can they have one even now? Dude running it is a felon.
ReplyDeleteWhere is ABC? I ain't waiting on the city. Can't wait for their next little party.
858=dirty white boy.
ReplyDelete"all of your derogatory rhetoric isn't gonna solve any gripes that you may have with whatever."
From my perch it looks like C-Mac has busted that dirty ass for you. Should not lie to the cops and damn sure donot lie to the property mgr. That is enought to solve your problem danceboy.
"its just gonna make people hate you more than they already do."
Who in the world would give a flying fuck if a sorry ass lying motherfuck like you likes them or not?
"you won't stop it."
It got stopped when this shit went up. better start packing up bitch cause when raju and michel see this yo ass is done in d.t. jxn. Dumb fuck dont put shit on the internet when it is a secret.
"find a hobby."
I think he's got one--whipping your punk bitch ass all the way back to rolling fuck where you came from.
CROWLEY FOR SHERIFF!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLevel 3 is having to eat Locker Room's shit.
ReplyDeleteit looks to me like benjamin boyd likes the black community from the pics it seems like he wishes he was either black or of different race cause if you do the math a white person wouldn't dare be caught in a wannabe club setting at boyds domain because only a DAN (dumb ass nigger) is the one that says im dumb ass a box of rocks ill go and kick it with the white boy, but i heard that he was making inter racial porn or was it the brothers pupping mr boyd's ass like they do in prison just wondering
ReplyDeleteLevel 3 are law breaking inconsiderate asses that don't live or work in DTJ. They are 2 to 4 a.m. gypsys.
ReplyDelete10:21 .REALLY. Read what you typed. It is painful. Please try to use some form of the King's English. Please.
ReplyDeleteYou are embarrassing.
10:21--you embarrass me to be a member of the human race. I mean really--do you have any idea how stupid you sound? Please crawl back under a rock, or even better, go jump off the rooftop locker room.
ReplyDeleteWooo DWB---I can't wait for the big Scorpio bash on Friday! ;-) Next door to the Locker Room, elevator to 8, stairs to the roof. Can't wait to see ya, stud.
ReplyDeleteAnd here is the real reason for this blog site aimed at Mr. Boyd... It seems that Mr. Boyd may be disturbing the Crowley Family. I found this link to Crowley Office Solutions on the internet! http://www.mississippivirtualofficesolutions.com/contact_us_5.html

It seems the Crowleys will lease to fly by night companies by the hour for "conferences" or for 6 & 12 month time periods! Now tell me what kind of "legitimate" business is only somewhere for 6 or 12 months???
5:33. Excellent post and thank you for making Crowley's position so clear. He leases space in the Millsaps building, obeys the law, operates 2 legitimate businesses and has to put up with liars, miscreants (look it up), shady landlords, greedy owners and a totally inept set of laws and enforcement arms of the city of Jackson.
ReplyDeleteHe loves this city and downtown, has elected to stay and fight to save it, and has the courage to expose the ridiculousness of this entire episode.
If only those with the power and guts to actually effect a "clean up" of these cancers (JPD, City Council, Mayor, ABC et al) would simply follow the law and its enforcement, then a private citizen like Mr. Crowley, would not have to go to such extremes, all with personal threats from slimy thugs.
Conference rooms by the hour are getting to be a big business all over the country. At least in real cities. I'm an attorney and travel all over the south for work, using these types of businesses in Atlanta, Birmingham, Columbia, and New Orleans. Why would I lease an entire office out when I only need a day to meet with clients before going somewhere else? Curt was on to something good here and hate to see it run out of town already.
ReplyDeleteAnd for those of you who have never heard of short term leases or conference rooms by the hour--maybe you need to get out of Jackson every once and a while
5:33, off the top of my head:
ReplyDeleteBy the hour: Drug reps, speakers, CE teachers.
For a few months: Lobbyists.
That's thinking about it for 3.2 seconds.
I won't even attempt to explain how incubators operate.
ReplyDeleteHilarious that the only people supporting Dingy Boyd are people so stupid they don't know what short-term business leases, satellite offices and business incubators are. That should tell you they have never opened a business before.
ReplyDeleteIf it doesn't have anything to do with rockin da house at 3am or smoking weed they aren't familiar with it.
Degenerate lowlifes. Get out Dingy Boyd. Out of Jackson period.
"And all the time thinking the City of Jackson and JPD are too stupid to catch them."
ReplyDeleteWell, thus far, that continues to be a good bet, unless the place is shut down now and DWB is in jail.
@Anderson--so true. JPD and code enforcement have been PUNKED by this piece of shit.
ReplyDeleteI'm a police officer (not jpd) and this is how this would go down if this was our dept. There is enough pc right here to get a warrant to arrest or at least to search. If one of our officers saw this they would print it off and tak it to the Lt. Then we'd go see the judge, get warrants and go handle business. Would take longer to write the affidavit than to get the judge to sign warrant. This stuff would stop the same day we saw it. He could lock us out if he wanted to but we have a 'master key' in the trunk that can open any door. He would have to replace the door but oh well. Should not be breaking the law and locking out the police.
ReplyDeleteIt is really hard to immagine any LEo seeing this and not getting a warrant and ending it once n for all. If one of us saw this and did not do something with it there would be hell to pay if the chief found out. Guess that is why we don't have this crap.
Thank you for your insight 10:46. To an outsider, this seems to be a "See spot run" moment. I am glad you took the time to lay it out so simply.
ReplyDeleteWhat would you do if the owner was a 2 time convited felon as well? Could he get a beer permit in your city?
Oh and the chief would probably be pissed at us anyway that a citizen went out and found this evidence an we didn't. Especially on a case like this where we had citizens complain before. Embarrassing to the dept.
ReplyDeleteCrowley keeps removing posts, I guess he doesn't want to hear from all sides of an argument.
ReplyDelete1046 here. If the owner had the record Sean king has , habitual and violent, the only thing that would be different is the warrant would be noknock and we would go tactical.
ReplyDeleteI highly doubt the city would give this guy a permit and even if they did we would know if he so much as scratched his rearend.
Crowley why do you keep removing my posts?
ReplyDelete10:57--What's the other side of the argument? "I have the right to operate an illegal club while selling alcohol." ???
ReplyDeleteAnd as far as removing posts, it's his blog, he can do whatever he wants. Don't like it? Start your own blog.
Does the HCSO not have ANY jurisdiction in this? Pissing contests aside....
ReplyDelete11:09 My problem is Crowley has a bunch of skeltons in his closet and is being a hypocrit on here for the public to see.
ReplyDeleteThe only posts that get removed are ones that contain false, defamatory, irrelevant or threatening statements. As for "irrelevant" posts, we have a very liberal definition of relevance. If you posted something that does not fall into one of these categories post it again.
ReplyDeleteI think its very relevant that someone with issues is defaming other Hinds County residents.
ReplyDelete11:12am if Crowley is being a hypocrite then we need to know. Has Crowley ever operated a illegal bar, sold dope, killed anyone that did not try to kill him first, lie to code enforcement, get arrested for disorderly conduct for obstructing the cops, run a whore bar, hire illegal strippers, trash a neighborhood etc?
ReplyDeletePlease give details.
@1117 its not "defaming" if it is true.
ReplyDeleteNow I understand why Curt keeps a gun in his office. And why some fool broke in the building. And why JPD couldn't get in the building and Curt had to take the fool down 8 flights of stairs at gunpoint.
ReplyDeleteI, for one, will be getting to the Sky Boxx early Friday for a good seat. Free walk me downs, ladies!
DWB has a really small deck. I bet girls laugh when they see how small DWB's deck is.
ReplyDeleteHazzhole wuz here.
ReplyDeleteBlah, blah blah 4:57. Get your own blog. Curt is telling the truth. Those are the only colors that are showing. Read it and weep.
ReplyDeleteCurt was a Deputy Sheriff with the HCSO and sometimes worked narcotics with me. he is now a criminal defense attorney. Of course he has enemies. DUH.
ReplyDeleteHe worked as a jailer...give me a break 5:12
ReplyDeleteHere we go with the "Shoot the Messenger" part of the ordeal. Herman Cain....harrasment. John Kerry...Swift boats, etc.
ReplyDeleteI personally don't give a shit if he was the janitor, all I know is God bless him for having the courage he has in pointing out how "punked" our city is being.
@anderson you are exactly right and it is an indictment on all the security of downtown because if they can't catch the crimes in the open then no one is safe. one more reason to go elsewhere after hours.
ReplyDeleteJailer. Yeah right. Don't believe everything you read 5:25. Some things don't get advertised. Or shouldn't be.
ReplyDelete6:49 don't be sucked in. Kill the messenger. That is the mission of 5:25.
ReplyDelete5:25. Is Sean King a murderer or not? That's it.
Does he have a license to operate through Latonya KING (Williams) or not?
HUH???
7:32. MORE INVESTIGATIVE SHIT HERE THAT JPD.
ReplyDeleteWhere are they, and where is the ABC?
Are Raju and Michel liable, Mr. Crowley?
Thanks Nasty Boyz...more???
ReplyDeleteNB 649 here. Not being sucked in just saying C aint no jailer.
ReplyDeleteWhere can an old White man get his eyebrows done like
ReplyDeletethe lil' White guy in the above photos ?
FOR THE DUMMIES THAT ARE CLUELESS...WHY YOU FUCKERS POSTING PICS OF FRIDAY NIGHT..FRIDAY IS FOR THE POETS ONLY!!!...WE DON'T SMOKE WEED UP THERE...GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!!!...SECONDLY,HOW ABOUT YOU FIND US A SPOT WHERE WE CAN RECITE POETRY AND BUY IT FOR US!!!..THIRD,THIS PIC WAS THE VERY FIRST DAY THE SKYBOX OPENED..THERE WERE FIRST COMERS AND EVEN MORE PEOPLE THAT HAVE A PASSION FOR POETRY...IF WE WERE PAINTING OR DOING BALLET,WOULD THAT BE ILLEGAL ALSO???
ReplyDeleteNo rooftop bars, etc. in the City of Jackson. Building code/Fire code. It's called the "law."
ReplyDeleteNot our job to find a place for the shithouse poets to rhyme.
How much did Sean Antonio King charge for a beer at the Sykyboxx?
