Bill allowing state to take over Jackson’s water system dies in House
SUMMARY: Mississippi's Senate Bill 2628, designed to transfer control of Jackson's water and sewer system from the city to a state-appointed authority, has failed to advance. The House did not bring the bill out of committee, halting its progress. Supported by Jackson's interim third-party manager Ted Henifin, the legislation aimed to establish a nine-member board overseeing the utilities, appointed by the governor and lieutenant governor. The bill followed longstanding criticisms of the city's management of utilities, which culminated in a severe water crisis. Efforts to have state oversight of these operations were unsuccessful in this legislative session.

SUMMARY: Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves has signed House Bill 295 into law, enabling electronic signatures on search warrants. This allows law enforcement officers to request and judges to grant search warrants remotely, streamlining the process for examining homes, businesses, vehicles, and electronic devices. Under the new law, individuals served with a warrant may electronically submit affidavits while under oath. Digital requests and signatures enjoy the same legal validity as traditional methods. Security measures are mandated to verify digital signatures and protect the system integrity. The law, which includes timestamping and encryption requirements for records, will be effective from July 1.

SUMMARY: Some players from Mississippi, including former Ole Miss linebacker Jeremiah Jean-Baptiste, were signed as undrafted free agents in the 2024 NFL Draft. Jean-Baptiste is joining the Los Angeles Chargers and is eager to prove himself in the league. He credits his growth to his experience with Ole Miss coaching, particularly under Lane Kiffin and Pete Golding, which prepared him for the NFL. Jean-Baptiste, who counts on his versatility and positive attitude, is committed to making an impact with the Chargers when rookie camp starts on May 13, promising to deliver on the field and be a constructive team player.
