SUMMARY: In Columbus, Mississippi, Thursday’s weather will feature plenty of sunshine with highs in the lower 80s, due to drier air from the north. However, as moisture from Hurricane Helene approaches, clouds will increase overnight, leading to potential rain, especially in northern areas. Friday is expected to be overcast and rainy, particularly north of US 82, with temperatures ranging from the 60s in the far north to the 70s elsewhere. A flood watch is in effect for several counties. The weekend may see some lingering showers, with sunnier weather returning next week and temperatures rising back into the 80s.

SUMMARY: Former Houston police officer Gerald Goines has been convicted of felony murder for his role in the 2019 deaths of Dennis Tuttle and Rhogena Nicholas during a failed drug raid. The couple was killed when officers, allegedly acting on false information provided by Goines, executed a “no-knock” warrant at their home. Goines was also found guilty of tampering with a government document for providing misleading details to obtain the warrant.
