SUMMARY: James Williams III, convicted of murdering his father and stepmother in 2002, was released on parole in April 2023 after serving nearly two decades. However, following a DUI charge in October 2023, the Mississippi Parole Board initially ordered a one-year return to prison. A court later ruled his parole violation a technicality, allowing his immediate release. This prompted outrage from victims’ families and local lawmakers, highlighting concerns over the parole process and victim neglect.

SUMMARY: President Donald Trump called slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk a “great American hero” and “martyr” for freedom at a memorial in Glendale, Arizona, attended by tens of thousands including Vice President JD Vance.

SUMMARY: The NCAA has approved eliminating the spring transfer period for FBS and FCS college football players, following a recommendation to modify the recruiting calendar. The new system introduces a single 10-day transfer portal window from January 2-11 for undergraduate and postgraduate players, replacing the current 20-day December window and 10-day April window. Coaches can still enter the portal within 30 days if their coach leaves or is fired. Players in postseason games after January 7 have a five-day transfer window post-final game. The rule aims to reduce leverage use for NIL deals and takes effect in the upcoming cycle, despite some coaching concerns.
