Marcus DeShawn Wilson, also known as ‘Lil Marcus Wilson’ has been brought back to Vicksburg for outstanding warrants.

Wilson was arrested in 2019 for possession of marijuana while out on parole. In April of this year, Wilson was being sought for a felony charge of possession of cocaine.

Vicksburg Police Chief Penny Jones announced on Friday that officers extradited him back to Vicksburg to face drug charges. He has a hold placed on him by the Mississippi Department of Corrections.
