Harrison County Board of Supervisors discuss email sent without authorization
SUMMARY: A Harrison County Board of Supervisors meeting became heated over an investigation into County Supervisor, Kent Jones. Board Attorney Tim Holleman had sent an email to a bond company regarding Jones' liability bond, following a demand from the state auditor's office for repayment of thousands of dollars used to convert a youth baseball field press box into an apartment. This led to the bond company revoking Jones' bond. Board members were unhappy with Holleman's email, as it had been sent without their approval.

Family files lawsuit after teen’s suicide in Harrison County Jail
SUMMARY: The family of 16-year-old Kayelyn Gwen Drake, who committed suicide at the Harrison County Adult Detention Center, is suing the Harrison County Sheriff's Office and jail medical center for personal injuries and wrongful death. Kayelyn's family believes she was wrongfully accused of armed robbery and would still be alive if not for the actions of the Sheriff's Department. They describe Kayelyn as a good student who enjoyed singing and photography, and claim that she was falsely implicated in the crime due to being in the wrong place at the wrong time. The family also criticizes the handling of Kayelyn's case by law enforcement, alleging negligence and lack of support.
