Two sentenced for trafficking over 200 pounds of fentanyl through Mississippi
SUMMARY: Two men have been sentenced to prison for attempting to traffic over 200 pounds of fentanyl through Mississippi. Fredy Gutierrez and Gabriel Becerra Manuel were arrested after a consensual bus search revealed 81 bundles of fentanyl powder concealed in the bus bathroom. A district attorney stated that this was one of the largest busts in the US, not counting those on the Mexico-US border. Both men have been sentenced to 40 years in custody, with 10 years to be served without the possibility of parole or early release.

SUMMARY: Mississippi is set to implement new traffic regulations banning “squatted vehicles”—cars with front bumpers significantly higher than rear fenders—after Governor Tate Reeves signed House Bill 349. The law, which goes into effect on July 1, 2023, will first involve warnings, followed by fines ranging from $100 to $300 and potential license suspension for repeat offenders. The legislation, propelled by safety concerns, will direct collected fines to support driver's education programs in secondary schools. Mississippi joins other states like North Carolina in prohibiting these vehicle modifications.
