Officer Cazinova Reed Arrested for Domestic Violence

A Jackson police officer arrested on a domestic-violence charge is on leave from the Police Department.

The police docket shows Cazinova Reed, 37, was taken into custody at 4:17 p.m. Thursday. A municipal judge set his bond Friday morning at $650.

Reed is accused in an alleged April 1 attack on "a female acquaintance or former acquaintance" with whom he had a "lengthy relationship," JPD spokesman Lt. Jeffery Scott said. Police also are investigating Reed on a sexual-battery complaint filed by the same woman and stemming from the same incident, he said. "He has been placed on administrative leave with pay pending the outcome of a criminal, as well as internal, investigation," Scott said.

Reed is a five-year veteran of the police force.

Reed's brother, Carlos Reed, was shot and killed in August in his apartment in south Jackson. Stephen Tose, 20, was charged with the homicide.
