State auditor countersuing Brett Favre
SUMMARY: The Mississippi State Auditor's Office is counter-suing NFL Hall of Famer Brett Favre for thousands of dollars in connection to the state's historic welfare scandal. State Auditor Shad White says attorneys filed a counter-claim against Favre after he sued White for defamation over truthful statements about the welfare scandal. The counter-claim asks the court to require Favre to repay the principal and interest he owes on $1.1 million in welfare funds. One of the officers involved in the scandal is no longer with the department.

SUMMARY: The River Avenue Bridge project, expected to be completed today, has seen progress but faces another delay due to difficulties with guard rail pouring. Construction company TL Wallace has fixed the issue, with crews now working on finishing the bridge's deck. Sidewalk sections have been poured and overhang forms removed. Next steps include grading, SE area work, and finishing the bridge deck. No completion date is given, with grinding needed determining the time required. A small portion of South Main Street will remain closed for two to three months after the bridge opens. Progress updates are available on the Forest County Board of Supervisors' Facebook page.

SUMMARY: President Barack Obama signed a care law into effect in 2010, honoring late civil rights activist Medgar Evers with the prestigious Presidential Medal of Freedom. Evers, a World War II veteran and NAACP field secretary, was tragically shot and killed in 1963 by a member of the Ku Klux Klan. Despite two mistrials, justice was eventually served when Byron De La Beckwith was found guilty of Evers's murder and sent to prison. Evers's legacy serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made during the civil rights movement and the ongoing struggle to heal the soul of the nation.
Presidential Medal of Freedom awarded to Medgar Evers 60 years after his death
