Members of 'Goon Squad' sentenced in Rankin County
SUMMARY: The content discusses the impact of social media on mental health, particularly in youth. Studies have shown a correlation between excessive use of social media and increased rates of anxiety, depression, and loneliness. The constant comparison to others' highlight reels on social media platforms can lead to feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem. Additionally, cyberbullying and the pressure to present a curated image online can contribute to poor mental health. To combat these negative effects, it is recommended to limit social media usage, engage in offline activities, and seek support from mental health professionals when needed.
Members of “The Goon Squad” were sentenced on state charges that will run concurrent with federal sentences.

SUMMARY: Ellisville State School provided an update on their Cemetery preservation project, where interns from USM helped locate buried remains of families. The interns created a digital map of the cemetery to locate sunken headstones. A professor from USM used ground penetrating radar with a 400 megahertz antenna to locate unmarked or mismarked graves. The radar sends a signal into the ground and maps where it returns to identify anomalies indicating burials. The cemetery was active from the 1920s to the 1980s, with approximately 150 people buried there. The process takes 3 to 4 hours and will result in a three-dimensional model of the area.
Ellisville State School cemetery projects moving forward.
