DOJ assists JPD, coroner’s office with next-of-kin death notifications
SUMMARY: The Hinds County Coroner's Office has been criticized for not providing timely next-of-kin death notifications, leading to individuals being buried in unmarked pauper's graves. Civil rights attorney Ben Crump, representing three families affected, has called for an investigation. The Department of Justice will offer training and recommendations to the Jackson Police Department and Coroner's Office to address the issue. The DOJ's assistance is not an accusation of wrongdoing by either agency, as both have voluntarily agreed to work with them. This situation highlights the importance of proper next-of-kin notifications in death cases.

SUMMARY: Longtime Pedal Fire Chief Joe Henry is retiring after 14 years. He reflects on his time in the department and how it has changed. Starting his career in Hattisburg, he moved to PED in 2010, finding solace in the job after the loss of his son. With city support, he improved staffing and raised their department rating. Henry's proudest accomplishment is training the department in life-saving techniques. Colleagues praise him as a great leader who has moved the department forward. He will miss the camaraderie and family-like atmosphere of the fire department once he retires. His presence will be greatly missed.
