SUMMARY: Happy Monday and welcome back! We're nearing the end of the 2024 High School athletic year with the baseball state championships starting this week. Representing the coast are the Van Cleave Bulldogs, who are making their first trip to Pearl since winning the 4A State title in 2018. They secured their spot by defeating South Jones for the South State title. Many Bulldog team members have played together since middle school, which they believe will contribute to their success. The team has strong chemistry and a winning mentality. Van Cleave plays Wednesday and Friday night, with the George County Rebels also competing.

It's the first trip back to Pearl for the Bulldogs since winning it all back in 2018 in the 4A title game.

SUMMARY: In Nashville, a woman expressed her fear in court that her abuser would kill her if released. Despite multiple violent incidents, he was released without informing her or placing a GPS monitor on him. Shortly after, he went missing, prompting the woman's father, Lance, to warn her. Lauren, the victim, stopped responding to messages, and her Life 360 tracker was turned off. Her body was later found brutally beaten in her car at a cemetery. Lance condemned the criminal justice system for its failures. The abuser, Rivers, has a criminal history and is currently in jail on a $1 million bond.

Thursday, Lauren Johansen's mutilated body was discovered in the back seat of her car in Harrison County.
