New charge levied against man accused of killing Jimmie ‘Jay’ Lee after discovery of remains
SUMMARY: Sheldon “Timothy” Herrington, Jr. faces an additional charge of tampering with evidence in connection with the murder of former Ole Miss student Jimmie “Jay” Lee, whose remains were recently discovered. Herrington, accused of killing Lee to conceal their romantic relationship, was arrested shortly after Lee’s disappearance in July 2022. During his previous trial, a mistrial occurred due to a split jury, with a lone juror citing the absence of Lee’s body as a factor. Now that remains have been found, the prosecution plans for a retrial. Herrington continues to maintain his innocence amid the new developments.

Hyde-Smith leads Senate charge to end government-funded research involving aborted fetuses
SUMMARY: U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith is spearheading a legislative effort to ban taxpayer-funded research using fetal tissue from abortions and to prohibit trafficking of aborted baby parts. She reintroduced the “Protecting Life and Integrity in Research Act” which aims to prevent federal support for such research. This issue has generated significant debate, with pro-life activists opposing any government funding for studies involving aborted tissues, while many scientists argue it is crucial for medical advancements. Hyde-Smith points to alternatives to fetal tissue research and aims to codify a ban while ensuring research continues using non-fetal sources. A companion bill has been introduced in the House.

Turkey stamp legislation heads to governor’s desk
SUMMARY: Mississippi lawmakers have passed Senate Bill 2280, requiring hunters aged 16 and older to purchase a turkey stamp to hunt wild turkeys. This stamp costs $10 for residents and $100 for non-residents, with proceeds earmarked for conservation projects to restore turkey habitats. The Mississippi Commission on Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks will manage the program. Hunters without a stamp will face misdemeanors and fines, though exceptions exist for disabled individuals and those with lifetime sportsmen’s licenses. If signed by Governor Tate Reeves, the law will take effect on July 1.
