SUMMARY: The content discusses the conservative plan for Medicaid expansion in Mississippi, with disagreements between the house and senate on the details of the plan. The Senate's plan covers fewer people and includes a work requirement, while the house plan covers more people and has a backup plan if the work requirement is not approved. There are concerns about the impact of merging voting precincts on voter suppression, with a state representative expressing worries about her constituents. The debate between the house and the senate on the Medicaid expansion plan and voting precinct changes is ongoing, with potential veto threats from the governor.

The Senate sets the stage for negotiations with the House on expanding Medicaid, with substantial differences in each chamber's proposals. We'll hear highlights from the Senate's floor debate, and reactions from the MHA and House Democrats. Hosted by 12 News' Byron Brown and produced by Tom Wright.

SUMMARY: Attorney Kevin Camp has filed a motion asking the court to disregard the jury's verdict in the case of a woman convicted of causing a fatal crash in Hines County. The attorney argues that the verdict should be overturned and a new trial granted because the state's expert was unable to determine the woman's blood alcohol content at the time of the crash. The woman was found guilty on four counts of aggravated DUI and a fourth DUI offense. Camp claims that the verdict is impossible due to the lack of concrete evidence regarding the woman's blood alcohol level.
