Two suspects in the death of Mahogany Jackson have been denied bond by a judge.
In a recent court hearing, Judge Kechia Davis addressed the case of eight suspects accused of the murder and kidnapping of 20-year-old mother, Mahogany Jackson, under Aniah's Law. Out of the eight suspects, five had requested bond, but Judge Davis denied their requests.

During the hearing, Birmingham Police Homicide Detective Mark Green testified and provided details of several violent videos allegedly taken by Teja Lewis, Si'nya McCall, Blair Green, Giovonnie Clapp, and Airana Robinson - the five suspects whose bond requests were denied. According to reports, Jackson had gone to Brandon Pope's residence, thinking she was going to hang out with friends. However, the footage showed a different story - Jackson was seen outside, naked and being beaten by Lewis while McCall gave directions to put her in the trunk.

Prosecutors claim that Jackson was then taken to Lewis and McCall's apartment, where the violence escalated. Another video showed Jackson being restrained in handcuffs, while the suspects took turns beating, slapping, spitting, and pistol-whipping her. They also recorded her performing sexual acts at gunpoint and shared the videos on social media, threatening that Jackson was going to die.

The victim had managed to send a distress message to her family at 8 a.m. on February 25th, stating that she had been kidnapped and not to call the police. The next day, Jackson's body was found at an illegal dump site, with a gunshot wound to the back of her head.

As the disturbing details of the case were presented in court, Jackson's mother, Gail Maddox, and other relatives were present and visibly shaken. Jefferson County District Attorney Danny Carr expressed his sympathy, stating that hearing such horrific details in a formal setting could be very disheartening for the family.

Some of the defendants' attorneys argued that their clients had no involvement in Jackson's murder. However, Judge Davis ruled that all of the suspects played a role in the heinous crime and ordered them to be held in custody for the safety of the community. All eight suspects have been charged with murder, including Francis Harris and Jeremiah Lee McDowell.
