Multiple suspects are in custody after the Mississippi Department of Public Safety and the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation announced Mississippi’s Most Wanted List.

On Jan. 8, Mississippi CrimeStoppers received anonymous tips from the public regarding Allan D. Henderson. MBI and the US Marshal Service Task Force apprehended Henderson without incident in the Jackson area. Henderson is being held at the Madison County Correctional Facility pending being taken into custody by the Mississippi Department of Corrections.

Henderson, 48, of Jackson, was wanted by MDOC for absconding supervision. He had been granted earned time release in 2016 and had not reported to his probation officer since February 2019. Henderson was previously convicted of manslaughter after strangling his girlfriend to death and leaving her body outside a daycare in Pearl. He was also convicted of child abandonment after leaving the girlfriend’s 9-month-old child with her body and fleeing the scene.

On Jan. 10, MBI received information that Oscar C. McNeil, 34, had surrendered himself to Warren County Sheriff Martin Pace after being placed on the Most Wanted List. McNeal, of Vicksburg, was wanted by MBI and the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office for aggravated assault and armed robbery.

“The immediate success of the (Most Wanted List) program is truly a collaborative effort between the citizens of this state and law enforcement,” said Lt. Col. Lee Morrison, MBI director. “The apprehension of these dangerous individuals is a prime example of how the phrase ‘See something, say something’ plays a vital role in protecting our communities.”
