Parents of murdered JSU student left without answers
SUMMARY: Jamison Kelly, the alleged getaway driver in the case of the murder of Jaylen Burns, was released without bond after being arrested in October. The family of Jaylen Burns claims that they have had minimal communication from Jackson State University during the investigation. They were not notified when the first shooting suspect, Joshua Brown, was released. The family had to rely on local media for information about the murder of their son, as they were not getting any updates from the authorities. Despite reaching out to Jackson State University, they have not received a response regarding the investigation and communication with the Burns family.

SUMMARY: In less than two weeks, Jackson will hold a Democratic mayoral primary runoff, with Senator John Horn leading the initial election with over 12,000 votes, while incumbent Mayor Chokwe A. Lumumba garnered over 4,000 votes. Election Commissioner Sandra McCall urges higher voter turnout, as only 23% of registered voters participated in the primary. Many voters express surprise at Horn’s strong performance and attribute Lumumba’s decline in support to recent legal issues. Concerns over polling accessibility persist, with some voters advocating for app-based voting. Historically, runoff elections experience lower turnout, prompting McCall’s hopes for absentee voting to begin soon.
