SUMMARY: The defense in court today asked for the case to be taken to the Supreme Court and dismissed, but the judge denied the request and the trial of Beth Ann White will proceed. The case involves the November 2021 crash that killed Allison Conaway and her 6-month-old son, Alex. White has been convicted of DUI three times and is charged with aggravated DUI. The defense argued that the indictment was incorrect and motioned to dismiss, but the judge ruled against it. The state believes the defense is trying to delay the trial by seeking Supreme Court intervention. White's trial date is set to proceed.

SUMMARY: The body of missing Belhaven man Dau Mabil was found near the Museum Trail, sparking questions and suspicions from his family and attorneys. Despite an autopsy showing no foul play, the family believes there are strange circumstances surrounding his disappearance. They suspect foul play and are pushing for further investigation as surveillance video suggests something happened to Dau on the walking trail. Family members also raise concerns about Dau's wife not notifying them of his disappearance. A judge has granted the family a temporary restraining order to prevent cremation or burial until a state medical examiner performs an autopsy.

SUMMARY: A new law in Mississippi prohibits representatives of renewable energy companies from donating to Public Service Commissioners and candidates for office. The bill aims to close a campaign finance loophole and prevent outside influence on decisions that affect rate payers. The law now bans donations from individuals representing public utility companies, including renewable energy companies like wind and solar. Senator Joel Carter introduced the bill, stating that it is a win for rate payers. The legislation follows previous reports of questionable campaign donations received by public service Commissioners in the state. More information on the impact of the new law will be provided on 12 News.
