SUMMARY: It's officially the first day of shrimp season, starting at 6:00 a.m. in the Gulf Coast. Bill Snyder reports from the docks. The Mississippi Department of Marine Resources provided a ride to observe the early action. Despite the low turnout of around 20-30 boats, as noted by word of mouth, some successful early catches were reported. Captain Justin's boat caught jumbo shrimp south of Ocean Springs, and other boats brought in 30-40 pounds of shrimp. These low numbers reflect current concerns about the shrimp season's health. Official data will be available later today on air and online.

The 2024 Shrimp Season for the Mississippi Sound started on Wednesday.

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.
