Meridian police officer arrested for allegedly molesting 12-year-old
SUMMARY: Kevin Michael Boyd, a lieutenant in the Meridian Police Department, was arrested and charged with statutory rape involving a 12-year-old girl. His arrest followed a report filed with Child Protection Services earlier this year. An investigation led to sufficient evidence to charge him, and he surrendered to authorities on August 6, 2024, after an arrest warrant was issued. Boyd’s bond has been set at $100,000, and the identity of the minor victim has been withheld due to her age. The Kemper County Sheriff’s Office made the arrest announcement.

SUMMARY: Mississippi officials are considering building a casino in Jackson to boost economic development and tourism. In March, House Bill 1989 proposed a program to finance a gaming center downtown, but it failed to pass. A coalition of business leaders, including former Gov. Haley Barbour, has since advocated for a casino in Jackson, citing the city’s population decline and the growing suburbs. However, state law restricts casinos to coastal or river areas, so legislative changes would be needed. Some industry leaders oppose the idea, fearing it could lead to more casinos in other cities and hurt existing establishments.
