SUMMARY: Karen Waldrup, a Southern Miss alumna and The Voice contestant, is hopeful to progress to the live semifinals after her latest performance. Her striking renditions of songs by Dee Messina and Trisha Yearwood earned her a place in the Top 12. Performing Lee Ann Womack's “I Hope You Dance” for the Top 8, she drew praise, particularly from Reba McEntire. Her fate, dependent on fan votes, will be revealed Tuesday at 8/7c. If not initially in the Top 8, she could still secure a spot via an instant save. The post ends with an invitation to subscribe to a Mississippi news newsletter.

SUMMARY: Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves signed “Walker's Law,” a bill to criminalize sextortion, into effect. The law, named after Walker Montgomery, a Starkville Academy student who took his life after online exploitation, defines sextortion as threatening to share private images to coerce someone into providing more images or valuables. Starting July 1, perpetrators will face up to 5, 10, or 15 years in prison for first, second, or subsequent offenses, respectively. Aggravated cases involving minors or leading to great bodily harm have additional provisions. Underage offenders may be referred to behavioral health counseling.
