On Monday, August 7th 2023, A concerned citizen commuted 2.5 hours to Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s Office to report multiple serious occurrences of public corruption in North Mississippi, particularly Lafayette County, Mississippi. Upon arriving, he was refused access to the Attorney Generals Office, and no investigator would speak with him despite his repeated protests about the seriousness of the crimes that occurred and continue to occur. The situation becomes more and more tense as it becomes increasingly clear that this office is completely derelicting it’s duty through refusing to return a call or meet in person regarding matters of public corruption among state officials.
Reardon says he is completely fed up with the corruption running rampant throughout the State of Mississippi. He says there is a blatant refusal by a plethora of state officials to honor their oaths of office and protect the civil/constitutional rights of citizens, and that what occurred on Monday August 7th 2023 is yet even more proof of this.
For those equally concerned, Reardon asks two things in particular. First, to pick up the phone and redress the State Attorney General’s Office by calling 601-359-3680. Second, subscribe to his YouTube channel by going to https://www.YouTube.com/@lafayettecountyaudit

On Thursday, August 3rd, 2023 a 1st Amendment Auditor and Constitutional Rights Activist got attacked by a Repo Agent in the Walmart parking lot in Southaven, MS while saving another citizen’s car from being hauled away. It Took 10-15 minutes for the first officer to show and ballooned to probably a great portion of their manpower. All of this because they refused to honor the oath that they swore to their country and its constitution, thus making their job much more difficult than it had to be.
Internal Affairs Complaints filed on responding Officers and Criminal Affidavit sworn against Repo Man
On Friday, August 4th 2023, Reardon traveled to the Southaven MS police department and met with Lieutenant Don Barr whom heads up Internal Affairs for the department. While there, internal affairs complaints get alleged against all responding officers except for one. In the midst of filling out the report, Lieutenant Barr leaves the room. Upon finishing, Reardon gets up and goes to the door, finding that the door is locked from the outside. This essentially turned this room into a jail/prison cell where Reardon was being held against his will. Eventually, Lieutenant Barr returns and Reardon then signs criminal charges against his attacker, Taylor Douget. Finally, Reardon gets sworn in by a clerk and a probable cause hearing gets set for Wednesday, August 9th, 2023.
Public Records Request is made for the 911 Call, all Officer Body Cams, and all Officer reports generated!
Immediately following the filing of internal affairs complaints and criminal charges, Reardon heads across the street to Southaven City Hall where he goes to the City Clerk’s Office and requests the 911 call, all officer body cams, and any officer report generated from response to the Walmart parking lot incident on August 3rd, 2023. This is shown above in what is marked as Part 3.

The public needs to truly weigh in on their opinions of what all is really going on here. And for those who pick the right reasons redress, redress them in a responsible way. The Southaven Police Department number is 662-393-8654 for easy finding.
Batesville, MS Mayor Hal Ferrell reveals City Ordinance barring Video Recording in the lobbies of City Buildings after a big push by a Constitutional Rights Activist and his supporters
Change came to Batesville, MS on Wednesday 10/19/22, thanks to a push by a 1st amendment auditor/constitutional rights activist and all of his supporters!
This was the Board of Aldermen meeting July 19, 2022 where the Ordinance to ban video recording in City buildings was tabled and passed. Reardon reviews the matter at hand
It was more than just a constitutional challenge and open refusal to comply with controversial ordinance passed by the Board of Alderman on July 19, 2022. The Ordinance in reference barred the use of photography or video recording inside of any City Building. However, on October 13, 2022 all of that would come under direct challenge by a Journalist/1st Amendment Auditor/ Constitutional Rights Activist.
Matt Reardon walks into Batesville, MS City Hall to video record the inside of City Hall on October 13, 2022. This sparked a major reaction to come
The very next day, October 14, 2022 Reardon put in a call to the Batesville Mayor, Hal Ferrell. Later that day, he got a return call from the Mayor. In that call, matters deteriorate as both Reardon the Mayor take two completely opposite stances on the matter at hand. Reardon states that he is fully intent on constitutionally challenging the Ordinance and will return to request public records, recording video as he is doing it. Mayor Ferrell then welcomes the challenge, stating he will even personally address the matter when Reardon comes in video recording. Then both state their willingness to fight the matter in court.
Here is the call on 10/14/2022 between Reardon and Mayor Hal Ferrell
On 10/17/2022, Reardon calls Mayor Ferrell back to let him know he was coming to constitutionally challenge the city Ordinance and request Public Records on Wednesday 10/19/2022 to ensure the Mayor was going to be there.
The confirmation call on 10/17/2022 from Reardon to Mayor Hal Ferrell
On Wednesday, 10/19/2022 just after 2pm, Matt Reardon delivers on his promises and arrives at City Hall walking in with not just one camera recording video, but three separate cameras. Mayor Hal Ferrell comes out of his office and immediately greets Reardon, shaking his hand, and stating that he and the board of Aldermen convened the night before. During this meeting they discussed all the grievances stated and took into account all the calls and emails received on the matter from a plethora of concerned citizens. Ferrell says they held a special vote and voted to repeal the Ordinance.
Since that time, Reardon says that he and the Batesville Mayor have spoken several times and that a mutual respect and friendship have been established. Mayor Ferrell has shown an insistence on transparency being given to the Citizens of Batesville and any interested citizen into the function of matters in Batesville, MS.
This story couldn’t have come with a better, more perfect ending! Hats are off to the Batesville Mayor and all concerned citizens whom helped bring about a positive change!
Matt Reardon announces even more legal action to be pending against the Lafayette County Sheriffs Department, Lafayette County, and the State of Mississippi as he shows play by play everything beginning to fall apart for the Department through the poor decisions of several among its ranks. This video contains scenes of excessive force, police brutality, lies, deprivation of rights, and destruction of property; and may not be suitable for all audiences.
“if two or more persons conspire for the purpose of impeding, hindering, obstructing, or defeating, in any manner, the due course of justice in any State or Territory, with intent to deny to any citizen the equal protection of the laws, or to injure him or his property for lawfully enforcing, or attempting to enforce, the right of any person, or class of persons, to the equal protection of the laws” – 42 USC 1985 – CONSPIRACY TO DEPRIVE RIGHTS
It gets real when Dixon and Tidwell are shown lying on their police reports in trying to justify an arrest when Reardon was simply seeking out the assistance of the Sheriffs Department to deal with conspired upon acts by Liz Crowder. Wam bam thank you mam that spells the aforementioned out verbatim to a T. Particularly when Dixon never audibly says “you are under arrest” and says to “move” which I did. Not one time was I ever told to freeze. So how could an arrest ever be considered lawful. These are questions to be asked on the record.
YET DESPITE ALL FACTS KNOWN AND ALL LIES THAT HAVE SURFACED, I WAS STILL FOUND GUILTY BY JUDGE CHRIS CHILDERS WHOM DENIED ME A TRIAL BY JURY. NOBODY CAN MAKE THE CLAIM THAT THE SYSTEM IS NOT RIGGED AFTER ASSESSING THIS MATTER AT HAND. NOBODY
I now take the position that this latest move constitutes violations of the false claims act along with violations of the whistleblower act, while leaving me feeling like a victim of human trafficking by county officials and a Quasi-Governmental entity, Communicare through the exploitation of Mississippi’s outdated mental health laws in a conspiracy involving local Government officials and private citizens in this latest move that I believe chills the Constitutional Rights of other citizens, particularly journalists and reporters if left unchecked. Particularly when these individuals could be poised to pull this very bold move again on me, or anyone else whom holds any information disfavoring to them.
My name is Matt Reardon and I am an independent investigative journalist & reporter. On December 6th, 2021, I had discovered a key court record in Lafayette County Circuit Court that I fully believe was fraudulently altered. This just so happened to be the second time this has happened over the past year on two currently active filed matters of mine in Circuit Court. When pressing in for answers as to how this could have happened, the Circuit Clerk, Jeff Busby, got highly defensive and told the other clerks not to answer any of my questions and even acknowledged he had never seen or heard of this happening.
Busby then communicated out to the Lafayette County Sheriff Joey East in order to try to get rid of me due to the newest significant issue discovered and undoubtable issues that would come from the discovery. East’s motive in the matter is very clear to see when taking into consideration key facts based upon numerous erroneous and concerning findings have more recently surfaced regarding the Lafayette County Sheriff’s alleged involvement in a matter dating back to 2017. Even more alarming is the fact that the latest record fraudulently altered in Circuit Court that was discovered by me just so happened to be a matter I was appealing from Lafayette County Justice Court where East’s Deputies and even he himself gave false sworn testimony in order to contrive a conviction based upon lies. The very next day, December 7th, 2021, Lafayette County Sheriff Joey East rose to the occasion once again in passing obnoxious lies and complaints centered around constitutionally protected activity as a journalist, reporter, and credentialed member of the press to an employee of Communicare by the name of Rachel Alcorn with a predisposed plan to exploit the State’s mental health laws by cutting corners, ignoring required procedure under state law, and seeking to separate a husband and father of four from his family in a grueling, sickening act that undoubtedly would align with not only the feeling, but the legal definition of human trafficking. And this they were successful in doing at the expense of both me and my family when no crimes were ever committed and the entire procedure was botched through and through.
At approximately 5pm on December 7th, 2021 upon returning home from a Doctors Appointment for one of his children, I was taken into custody at my residence in front of my wife and child based upon false claims in a sinister, cowardly attack on an independent journalist in order to suppress the reporting of fraud to not only the public, but the proper authorities for the dishonesty which took place on open legal matters stemming from the Lafayette County Circuit Court/Circuit Clerks Office.
After discharge from a two-and-a-half-week involuntary stay based upon lies and cover-up, I immediately condemned the ruthless attack and labeled it for what it was: a fraudulent commitment coming about as a result of completely erroneous lies spewed by the sheriff, Joey East, and completely botched procedure by Communicare and its Employees. After voicing my complete disgust with the matter to a Communicare employee, I was informed that I needed to submit any complaint in writing to the director of the Facility including any demand for preservation of evidence. Early on in the afternoon on February 8th, 2022 at the conclusion of speaking with chancery court clerk Sherry Wall, I filed and served an 8-page shocking letter with Chancery Judge Lawrence Little’s chambers and Communicare’s executive director Dr. Sandy Rogers. The very next day, February 9th, 2022, another Communicare Employee proceeded to file another affidavit for commitment of me claiming I had refused to attend a scheduled appointment, however, recorded phone calls with Communicare paint an entirely different picture and in combination with the Complaint filed just 1-day prior almost certainly show that this latest move by Communicare and its employees was ill-brought once again and done to retaliate against me and once again try to dodge a situation that the county and Communicare brought on themselves.
On February 10th, 2022, upon returning home close to midnight from my wife being hospitalized due to pregnancy complications, Lafayette County Sheriffs Deputies light up the yard with blue lights and take me once again into custody for the affidavit for commitment filed in front of my wife, Madelyn. I was held for 6-days without any rights afforded to me at the Lafayette County Detention Center and then shipped 2.5 hours across the state to the East Mississippi State Hospital in Meridian MS on February 16th, 2022. There I would stay, deprived of my liberty among other rights, for 30 days. All of this put Madelyn into preterm labor and she gave birth via emergency c-section on February 17, 2022 to a 2lb 11oz extremely premature baby boy without me by her side.
I now take the position that this latest move constitutes violations of the false claims act along with violations of the whistleblower act, while leaving me feeling like a victim of human trafficking by county officials and a Quasi-Governmental entity, Communicare through the exploitation of Mississippi’s outdated mental health laws in a conspiracy involving local Government officials and private citizens in this latest move that I believe chills the Constitutional Rights of other citizens, particularly journalists and reporters if left unchecked. Particularly when these individuals could be poised to pull this very bold move again on me, or anyone else whom holds any information disfavoring to them.
I’m looking for the assistance of a willing and able licensed attorney whom can assist. If you can’t, I would appreciate a referral to somebody that might be able to.

Meet Ethan-Oliver James Reardon
Ethan-Oliver was born to parents Matthew and Madelyn Reardon on February 17th, 2022 at the Tupelo Women’s Hospital. On this day, Ethan-Oliver was just 28 weeks and 6 days gestational age and weighed just 2lb 11oz. He has been fighting for his life ever since that time. As tough as it has been on parents Matthew and Madelyn along with his sisters Meri-Emmelyn, Anna-Claire, and McKenna-Rose living an hour away from baby Ethan, It’s The details surrounding this preemie’s significantly early arrival have made this situation for the Reardon family particularly strenuous, difficult, and have piled on additional stresses and worries for this young family of 6.
On December 6th, 2021, Ethan-Oliver’s father, Matthew whom is an independent investigative journalist & reporter, discovered a key court record in Lafayette County Circuit Court that was fraudulently altered now twice over the past year on two currently active filed matters of Reardon’s. When pressing in for answers as to how this could have happened, the Circuit Clerk got highly defensive and had communicated out to the Lafayette County Sheriff Joey East in order to try to get rid of Reardon along with what the county and certain County Officials would interpret as a significant issue discovered and sore on the horizon. East’s motive in the matter is very clear to see when taking into consideration key facts based upon numerous erroneous and concerning findings have more recently surfaced regarding the Lafayette County Sheriff’s alleged involvement in a matter dating back to 2017. Even more alarming is the fact that the latest record fraudulently altered in Circuit Court that was discovered by Reardon just so happened to be a matter Reardon was appealing from Lafayette County Justice Court where East’s Deputies and even he himself gave false sworn testimony in order to contrive a conviction based upon lies.

Reardon immediately condemned the ruthless attack and hailed the involuntary commitment as a fraudulent commitment coming about as a result of completely erroneous lies spewed by the sheriff, Joey East, and echoed by Communicare staff members.
