Mississippi Supreme Court denies rehearing appeal from 2017 Memorial Weekend killer
SUMMARY: The Mississippi Supreme Court denied a second appeal to uphold Willie Cory Godbolt’s conviction for killing eight people in 2017. Originally sentenced to death and life imprisonment in 2020, Godbolt murdered the victims at three locations over two days in Lincoln County. The court found sufficient evidence to maintain the conviction despite arguments for a fair trial and venue change to DeSoto County. Godbolt claimed he was not given a fair trial due to juror ties to law enforcement and argued the crimes were separate incidents. However, the court noted the premeditated nature of the murders. His rehearing motion was denied, and no execution date is set.

SUMMARY: As Christmas approaches, Mississippi’s Department of Agriculture and Commerce encourages residents to shop local for their holiday trees. Commissioner Andy Gipson has launched a website listing nearly 30 Christmas tree farms in the state, highlighting the variety of trees available and offering care tips. He emphasized the memorable experience of visiting a local farm, which also supports Mississippi farmers and the local economy. Each year, these farms grow thousands of trees, and for every tree sold, farmers plant one to three seedlings, promoting healthier forests. A complete list of farms will be available before Thanksgiving.

SUMMARY: Thanksgiving is the top day for home-cooking fires in the U.S., with Mississippi experiencing six fire-related deaths this year due to unattended cooking. In response, the Mississippi Insurance Department and State Fire Marshal’s Office provided safety tips for holiday cooking. Key recommendations include keeping flammable items away from the stove, avoiding loose clothing, using the back burners for children, and having a lid ready to smother small fires. Families are advised to create an escape plan, call 911 after exiting, and use turkey fryers outdoors, ensuring they are stable and never left unattended to prevent fires.
