Last I red on Kingfish's Jackson Jambalaya, the City of Clinton, Mississippi, was suing him for a BUNCH of code violations, pertaining to buildings he owns/owned in the historic Downtown.

I went inside a couple months ago and the entire kitchen floor and ceiling was caved in..it's so rotten the upstairs isn't safe for fear of falling through. Sad but true..it can't be repaired. Mount Holly was repairable but recent drunk teenagers looked to taken a toll on it. The mirrors in the above picture were smashed, along with all of the sinks, staircase banister, the room to the left right before the kitchen when walking from the front of the house, the one with the large glass window overlooking the backyard, the entire window was smashed exposing the inside to the outside. The chandeliers were smashed except for one. I was extremely upset to see such disrespect for historical property..i hope someone renovates it before it is too late.

There was still a grand piano sitting in one of the rooms then. Unfortunately, there's not a market for the home and few who can afford to keep it up. Not sure who owns it now.
