JPD chief gives update after mother, child killed
SUMMARY: Authorities have charged Daniel Callahan and Victoria Cox with capital murder and sexual battery related to the death of three-year-old Erin Burnett and the injury of her six-year-old sister, Jaylee.

State Health Department investigating after Baptist Hospital power outage
SUMMARY: David Blackwell, whose wife is a patient at Baptist Hospital, recounts a stressful power outage that occurred early Monday morning. After the outage started at 2:22 AM, the hospital's backup generators failed to activate promptly, raising concerns as the hospital went dark. Blackwell's wife's pneumatic bed deflated, causing anxiety. Entergy, the power company, and witnesses confirm the outage lasted until 4:24 AM. Hospital staff, using cellphone lights, managed patient care through the blackout. Baptist Hospital later stated that patient care remained uninterrupted during the transition between power sources, though the actual outage lasted longer than their initial claim of an hour.
