Merdian man could face life in prison after latest crime included having 630 grams of meth
SUMMARY: Jeremy Lovell, a 44-year-old man from Meridian, Mississippi, has pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine. During a search of his home last May, law enforcement found approximately 630 grams of methamphetamine and two firearms. Lovell has prior convictions for burglary and possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, making him unable to legally possess a firearm as a convicted felon. He is scheduled to be sentenced on December 12 and faces a maximum penalty of life in prison. The case was investigated by the Lauderdale County Sheriff's Department, Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics, and ATF as part of the Project Safe Neighborhoods program.

SUMMARY: The U.S. House of Representatives removed Speaker Kevin McCarthy from his leadership role, with three out of four Mississippi representatives voting against the decision. Republican Congressmen Michael Guest, Trent Kelly, and Mike Ezell supported McCarthy, while Congressman Bennie Thompson joined Democrats in removing him. The vote was sparked by Rep. Michael Guest, who accused McCarthy of breaching an agreement made in January. This is the first time a speaker has been ousted through a resolution, and it is unclear when lawmakers will vote on a new speaker. Rep. Patrick McHenry will serve as interim speaker.
