Jordan Cummins’ double murder trial heads into second week
SUMMARY: In the trial of Cummings, accused of killing two people at Hal's St. Paddy's Parade in 2023, prosecutors have rested their case. After presenting 17 witnesses, including the lead investigator and the state's chief medical examiner, the prosecution's evidence aligned consistently. Testimony revealed Cummings assaulted his girlfriend, prompting intervention from onlookers, after which he allegedly opened fire in self-defense. The defense, planning to call key witnesses including the girlfriend and Cummings himself, requested more time and will resume on Monday. Cummings claims he acted out of fear, though no evidence supports his claim of being previously shot in Jackson.

How did Louisiana case end up in Mississippi?
SUMMARY: Reporter Shay O'Connor covered the discovery of Callie Brunett's blood-covered body, noting that locals believe the tragedy could have been prevented if Daniel Callihan had been previously arrested for crimes in Amite. Residents, including Darci who lives near Callihan's camper, expressed relief at his arrest in Jackson for the alleged killings of a Loranger mother and her toddler. Darci's daughter also felt uneasy around Callihan. Neighbors reported that Callihan had been problematic for months, including incidents of indecent exposure, theft, trespassing, and arson. The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff's Office had been informed about these incidents.
