Aberdeen alderwoman to watch election results from jail
SUMMARY: Lady Garth, a 64-year-old Aberdeen alderwoman, was arrested for assault and disturbance of an election. Initially arrested for assaulting a poll worker on April 5, Garth now faces jail time for a different conviction upheld by the Mississippi Supreme Court in February. In December 2022, she was guilty of disturbing the peace by trying to have a fellow board member removed from a meeting. Garth will spend five days in jail and watch her runoff election results against Rhonda Moore from a cell, with no Republican or third-party candidates in contention.

SUMMARY: Chad Kelly, the reigning MVP of the Canadian Football League (CFL), has temporarily left the Toronto Argonauts' training camp after being suspended over sexual harassment allegations. The former Ole Miss quarterback is facing a nine-game suspension by the CFL after a female strength coach claimed she faced harassment and wrongful termination. While his legal team addresses the CFL investigation's findings, Kelly has chosen to focus on personal reflection and improvement, aiming to minimize team distractions as he prepares to earn reinstatement and trust. Meanwhile, to return to play, he must complete independent assessments and counseling sessions addressing gender-based violence.

SUMMARY: Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves has enacted two bills supporting state downtown revitalization. Senate Bill 2696 establishes the Mississippi Main Street Revitalization Grant (MMSRG), while Senate Bill 3056 appropriates $6.972 million across 19 projects and provides $500,000 for the Mississippi Main Street Association (MMSA). This initiative will fund improvements in communities like Amory, Biloxi, and Vicksburg. Funding up to $500,000 per community is competitive, with application and eligibility requirements varying by population size. The MMSA, appreciative of legislative trust, encourages future community participation in this ongoing program.
