Jones College football player suing Jackson State, others after being falsely accused of murder
SUMMARY: The family of Joshua Brown, wrongfully accused of murdering a Jackson State student, has filed a lawsuit against the university and various law enforcement entities. Brown was arrested in October 2023 but released after 22 days when security footage proved he was nearly 100 miles away during the crime. The lawsuit alleges wrongful imprisonment, defamation, and conspiracy, claiming significant emotional and reputational harm to Brown. The complaint criticizes the rush to accuse him amid the high-profile case, leading to a negligent investigation. A second suspect was also released due to insufficient evidence, with no new leads in the case.

SUMMARY: Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch, along with 38 other attorneys general, is urging Congress to ban pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) from owning pharmacies. Growing concerns among small pharmacy owners and consumers highlight PBMs’ influence on drug pricing, which can harm independent pharmacies and access to healthcare, particularly in rural areas. Fitch argues that PBMs leverage their power to manipulate drug prices and impose unfair terms on pharmacies. A recent push for legislation to regulate PBMs and prevent practices like spread pricing has stalled. The attorneys general’s letter to Congress seeks to protect consumers and small businesses from PBM exploitation.
