SUMMARY: An 18-year-old from Pearl, Dylan Josiah Fletcher, has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for armed robbery and possession of a stolen firearm.

He received 12 years for armed robbery, with 18 years suspended, followed by five years on probation. Additionally, he was sentenced to five years concurrently for possessing a stolen firearm reported stolen in a prior auto burglary. Fletcher was arrested again in September 2023 while out on bond.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear an appeal from Leslie “Bo” Galloway III, a Mississippi death row inmate convicted of murdering high school student Shakeylia Anderson in 2008. Galloway, now 41, was convicted in 2010 for running over Anderson after abducting her and has argued that his trial attorneys provided ineffective representation. His ongoing appeal in federal court includes claims of racial bias in jury selection, as he was sentenced by an all-white jury, and challenges to forensic testimony used against him. Galloway maintains that had his background been presented, a life sentence could have been secured instead of death.
