McComb Mourns After Sgt. Jason Blake’s Tragic D**th
Off-Duty Hero Ki**ed While Responding to Call
The small Mississippi city of McComb grieves the loss of Sgt. Jason Blake, a respected five-year veteran of the police force. Authorities say Blake d**d in an apparent m*rder-su**ide while off duty, rushing to help someone in need.
The sh**ting occurred around 3 p.m. Tuesday inside a home near Mississippi 44 and Cole Thomas Road. McComb Police Chief Earnest Perry explained that Blake often received direct calls for help, even when off duty, and he rarely hesitated to respond.
D**dly Encounter Inside a Residence
According to Pike County Sheriff Wally Jones, the suspect, Clay Paulk, forced his way into the home before sh**ting Blake and Nicki Wilson, a woman with whom Paulk had a prior relationship.
Wilson survived and was rushed to the hospital, where she is expected to recover fully. Blake and Paulk were pronounced d**d at the scene. Investigators believe Paulk d**d from a self-inflicted g*nshot wound.

A Wife’s Emotional Tribute
Blake’s wife, Rhea, shared a heartfelt message on Facebook. She described a man whose courage and kindness extended well beyond his badge.
“My husband was ki**ed yesterday helping someone in a domestic vi*lence situation,” she wrote. “He never cared what it looked like as long as he was doing the right thing. He considered it the highest of honors to lay down his life for others.”
Rhea remembered his softer side — playing basketball with neighborhood kids, rescuing animals, and fixing strangers’ cars on his days off.
“He put everyone above himself,” she said. “He is one of the best people I’ve ever known. I always knew if he was given the choice, he would die protecting someone. I guess God gave him that choice and honored his wishes, I just wish it wasn’t so soon.”
A Career Dedicated to Service
Before joining the McComb Police Department, Blake served 16 years in law enforcement, including time with the Pike County Sheriff’s Office. His dedication earned him respect from colleagues, city officials, and the community.
Mayor Quordiniah Lockley confirmed the details of the incident and expressed sorrow over the loss. Sheriff Jones offered “deepest condolences” to Blake’s family, writing, “Please accept our deepest condolences for the loss of Sergeant Jason Blake. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Sergeant Blake will be dearly missed by all.”
