Agents from the Mississippi Alcoholic Beverage Control arrested two individuals for illegally operating a still.
Willie “Jr” Necaise and Tangela Davenport were arrested for possession of an illegal distillery in Kiln, MS on Friday, October 19th.
ABC agents seized 40 barrels (55 gallons each) of mash, a 200-gallon stainless steel cooker, a condensing worm (coil), 82 bags (25 pounds each) sugar, and a 1993 Ford F-250. In addition to the moonshine supplies, the agents also seized were phones and various sizes of empty drums and containers.
