SUMMARY: Next week, you can support those in need by participating in the annual Media for Red Cross Blood Drive. Denise Smith from the Red Cross shared details on how to get involved. The drive begins Monday in Pas Christian, continues in Hancock County and Edgewater Mall on Tuesday and Wednesday, with stops in Pascagoula and Diberville later in the week. Blood donations have declined recently, making this effort crucial. The Red Cross seeks both new and loyal donors to ensure a stable blood supply. For eligibility details or to schedule an appointment, visit redcrossblood.org and enter the sponsor code “Gul Coast.”

Next week, you can help give back to those in need.

SUMMARY: In Nashville, a woman expressed her fear in court that her abuser would kill her if released. Despite multiple violent incidents, he was released without informing her or placing a GPS monitor on him. Shortly after, he went missing, prompting the woman's father, Lance, to warn her. Lauren, the victim, stopped responding to messages, and her Life 360 tracker was turned off. Her body was later found brutally beaten in her car at a cemetery. Lance condemned the criminal justice system for its failures. The abuser, Rivers, has a criminal history and is currently in jail on a $1 million bond.

Thursday, Lauren Johansen's mutilated body was discovered in the back seat of her car in Harrison County.
