On March 27, 2023, the Oxford Police Department<\/strong> presented its case against Sheldon Timothy Herrington Jr.<\/strong>, 22, from Grenada, Mississippi<\/strong> for the murder of Jimmie “Jay<\/strong>“ Lee<\/strong>.

We would like to thank all the law enforcement agencies and the District Attorney’s Office<\/strong> for their hard work during this investigation. This is still an ongoing investigation. We have not stopped looking for the location of Jimmy ‘Jay’ Lee. If you have any information, please contact the Oxford Police Department at 662-232-2400 or CrimeStoppers at 662-234- 8477.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our thoughts and prayers are constantly with the Lee family, and we thank them for their constant support.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
