DeSoto County sheriff gives update on escaped inmate
SUMMARY: A DeSoto County inmate, Joshua Zimmerman, escaped custody by exploiting a flaw in the courthouse’s design, according to Sheriff Thomas Tuggle. Zimmerman, charged with multiple felonies including attempted murder, managed to evade law enforcement ahead of his court appearance by convincing a stranger to drive him to Memphis. The inmate, still in his pajamas, claimed he had an altercation with his wife. U.S. Marshals are offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to his arrest. Zimmerman, considered armed and dangerous, may have shaved his beard to avoid capture. Authorities are actively searching for him.

SUMMARY: The Mississippi House and Senate plan to take Friday off due to an impending winter storm forecasted to impact northern counties. Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann announced on Tuesday the intention to adjourn early Thursday to allow senators to return home ahead of the severe weather. Hosemann emphasized the need for prompt work to help legislators navigate safely before roads freeze. House Speaker Jason White echoed this plan, humorously noting the rare alignment with the Senate. The state is expected to face snow, sleet, and freezing rain, with both chambers reconvening the following week to address significant legislation, including tax reform.
