CPD: ‘Dangerous’ shooting suspect remains at large

Don’t forget Valentine’s Day!

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

The Corinth Police Department warned on Monday that a shooting suspect remains at large and should be considered dangerous. Capt. Dell Green identified the man as Jamar Allen, 30. He is originally from Wisconsin but has been in Corinth for about a year. A street address was not available for Allen, who is described as a black male standing approximately 6 feet tall and weighing 145 pounds.

Elected leaders make plea for inmate labor City adopts resolution for state cooperation

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Corinth’s elected leaders are making another plea for the opportunity to use state inmate labor for tasks such as working garbage routes. During their last meeting, the Board of Mayor and Aldermen adopted a resolution requesting the cooperation of state oﬃcials to allow the city to use inmate workers as it did for many years in the past. Mayor Tommy Irwin said the resolution makes the case that the arrangement “is a win-win — the state taxpayer doesn’t have to pay a dime. The county will not have to pay a dime. The city will reimburse the county.”

The city and county were headed toward such an arrangement last year until the Mississippi Department of Corrections informed the city that it is not allowed by law. The city wants 10 to 12 inmate laborers who could work garbage routes and perform other duties as they have in the past. “We’re used to seeing inmates on the back of garbage trucks,” said Irwin. “We’re used to seeing them out working in the community, which we feel is a good thing.”

While the city has hired several full-time workers to oﬀset the loss of inmate laborers, it would be a big hit to the budget to hire as many as are needed, he said. “Such a program is beneficial to all in that it allows the City of Corinth to perform a required public function at an eﬃcient cost to its residents and allows taxes not to be increased for this purpose,” states the resolution. “Such a program also is beneficial to the State of Mississippi in that it relieves the

Corinth woman shares experience on ‘Voice’ BY L.A. STORY lastorywriter@gmail.com

Even though she did not get a call back, one local woman felt she learned a lot from her audition for “The Voice.” Stephanie Lee of Corinth took a chance on her performance dreams when she traveled to Nashville, Tenn., to audition for NBC’s television series “The Voice” in mid-January. The three-time Emmy Awardwinning “The Voice,” is a vocal competition show and a new season is about to begin with Grammy Award-winning artist Gwen Stefani returning as a coach, joining music stars Alicia Keys, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton and host Carson Daly, according

The business opened in 1992 and Holland said he got his start working for Bill McPeters back in 1988 and he worked for McPeters until the business sold. “I was going to college for accounting at the time, but I fell in love with the funeral business,” said Holland. He explained that he looks at the business as more of a ministry than a job. “If I can help someone through some of the worst days of their lives, then I have accomplished something,” he said.

Author publishes 3 books, another coming BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

OLIVE BRANCH — Lifelong friendships between a trio of junior high girls from Bethel Springs, Tenn., helped inspire one of the three to achieve her dream of becoming a published author. Susan Boles, now a resident of Olive Branch, has now published three books and is on the verge of publishing her fourth. The young friends had their own secret writing club that no one else knew about. Boles was so proud of her early work that she still has some of it preserved in a binder. Annette Kernodle Rickman and Kerra Waddell were the friends in the secret club with Boles who enjoyed writing at an early age. The trio are still friends to this day. She credits McNairy Central High School English teacher Vicki Flowers with inspiring her to read more often while she was in high school. Boles graduated from McNairy Central in 1980. “Miss Vicki had an index card box on her desk for you to keep track of the books you read,” said Boles. “It is the little things she did that helped inspire me to read more often.” Boles began writing short stories in 2006 to enter a writing contest for flash fiction stories

Susan Boles to be published in an anthology. Flash fiction is complete stories in less than 1,000 words. She entered three stories and two were published in the book. Reading has been a passion since she was very young. As a toddler, her mother read to her from her ‘baby books’ and her mother tells a story about her holding one of them upsidedown and ‘reading’ by repeating the story verbatim from memory. The confidence boost she received from being published helped Boles write her first book in 2007. It was a historical fiction set in the Civil War-era about her great-great-grandmother titled, “Kate’s Pride.” “I changed the names in the story, but I took a handful of facts and made up the rest of

Chicken processor plans to invest $2M in Carthage, hire 150 Associated Press

CARTHAGE, Miss. — A new wholesale company that includes some Georgia partners will invest more than $2 million and hire 150 people to process chicken in Leake County, Mississippi. Pearl River Foods will buy chicken, process it into breasts and tenders, and sell it to other companies. The Mississippi Development Authority will contribute $1.5 million in federal community development money to improve a building that Pearl River Foods

will lease from Leake County. The county will provide $170,000 for infrastructure improvements. Pearl River Foods was founded by four partners of Victory Foods of Gainesville, Georgia, as well as two new partners, but is not a sister company. The company expects to begin operations in October. Poultry is already Leake County’s biggest private industry, with Tyson Foods employing more than 1,400 people in Carthage.

Something to Think About

Suppose someone sows seeds in four different soils, in different places, and reaps corn from the first place, peas from the second, cucumbers from the third, and beans from the fourth place. The obvious inference would be that four different kinds of seeds have been planted. But what would be the conclusion if only corn is reaped from every place? That would mean that only corn was planted in every place. When Philip the evangelist had gone into Samaria, the Bible says that he had preached there the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ. What was the result? In the same verse, in Acts 8:12, it says that both men and women were baptized. In the same chapter of Acts 8, a little later, we find Philip preaching to the Ehiopian eunuch. And in verse 35, we read, “Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning at the same scripture, preached Jesus to him.” What did Philip preach? It says, he preached Jesus to him. What happened as a result? We read from the very next verse of Acts 8:36, “Now as they went down the road, they came to some water. And the eunuch said, “See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?” Then Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart, you may.” And he answered and said, “I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.” So he commanded the chariot to stand still. And both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and he baptized him.” In the same sixteenth chapter of the book of Acts, we read that Paul and Silas were imprisoned because they were fearlessly proclaiming the way of salvation to all. However, at midnight there was a great earthquake so that the foundations of the prison were shaken and all the doors were opened, and everyone’s chains were loosed. But Paul saw him, and called with a loud voice, saying, “Do yourself no harm, for we are all here.” We can imagine, the happiness the jailer must have felt. And, therefore, we read, “Then he called for a light, ran it, and fell down trembling before Paul and Silas. And he brought them out and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” So they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.” Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all who were in his house, and he took them the same hour of the night and washed their stripes. And immediately, he and all his family were baptized.” (Acts 16:25-33). Also, it is most important to learn from the above examples from the Bible that one cannot preach the kingdom of God, and Jesus Christ, and the Word of the Lord without preaching what Christ has taught that a person must do to be saved (Mark 16:15,16). One must note the fact that in the passages cited above from the Scriptures. in none of the instances was baptism specifically mentioned as a subject in the lesson. But, in every case, people were baptized immediately after “the kingdom of God”, or “the name of Jesus”, or “the word of God” was preached to them. Isn’t the conclusion obvious and clear? It is impossible to preach the message of the kingdom of God or the name of Jesus Christ or the Word of the Lord today, in the complete biblical manner, without telling people that they must be baptized in order to be saved. Read your Bible – Acts 8 - Welcome

the story,” noted Boles. While acknowledging the diﬃculty of publishing with a small publishing agency, Boles turned out her next book later in 2007 titled “Fated Love.” She got back the rights to the book from the original publisher, and repackaged the book with a new cover and self-published through her boutique publishing agency, Argent Ocean Publishing. Amazon has helped authors like Boles to publish and sell electronic editions of their books that can be read on ereader devices such as Kindle. The online company does this for a percentage of the cover price when books are sold. Boles encourages individuals thinking of taking the selfpublishing route to invest the money to hire a professional book editor, cover designer and formatter prior to publishing. Boles’ most recently published book is “Death of a Wolfman,” with the story similar to an Agatha Christie mystery book. “I’ve wanted to do a book like this one for as long as I can remember,” remarked Boles. “It’s a cozy mystery book.” Her day job is telecommuting for RegEd, a vendor that helps investment companies stay current with various state and federal law changes. She previous-

ly worked seven years for First Tennessee Brokerage and the investment experience helped her get the job with RegEd. When Boles gets burned out on sitting at her computer, she goes the old-fashioned route and writes with her legal pad. “It takes longer to do it with a legal pad and pen, but sometimes I need a break from the computer,” said the author. Looking ahead, the next book later this year will be “Cherry Cake and a Cadaver.” Boles has a goal of producing two books per year. Boles is also proud to be one of 10 authors chosen for full length short stories to be published in an anthology that will be sold later this year. The authors chosen to be contribute to the anthology will not receive compensation from sales of the book. All proceeds from the sale of the anthology will be split fifty-fifty between two charities: Loving Paws Rescue and Companions For Heroes. A clever thinker, Boles uses her creative skills to be her own press agent through various forms of social media like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram. “I don’t talk much about my books to my friends,” said Boles. “I do not want to make them think they have to buy my books because they are my

4th Jackson shooting victim dies; no arrest Associated Press

JACKSON, Miss. — Police in Mississippi say a fourth person has died after a holdup and gunfight last week in a Jackson apartment. Jackson police say 25-year-old

Marquis Garrett was pronounced dead Sunday night. They tell The Clarion-Ledger that a 24-year-old man, described as a person of interest in Thursday’s gunfight, has been questioned and

released without being charged. Those who died last week have been identified as Jessie Kelly and Garrett’s brother Dominique Garrett, both 23, and 21-year-old Jacarin Robinson.

Officer fired after video of suspect being hit Associated Press

JACKSON, Miss. — A Mississippi police officer has been fired after cellphone video showed him hitting a handcuffed suspect. A Jackson Police Department news release says officer Justin Roberts was fired Monday by Chief

Lee Vance. The release says the suspect was hit Saturday; Vance started an internal aﬀairs investigation after the video surfaced Sunday. The identity of the handcuﬀed man was not released. It was not immediately clear

whether Roberts can appeal his firing. The Associated Press tried to leave a message for Roberts at the Jackson Police Department, but department spokesman Commander Tyree Jones says he does not have a way to reach the fired oﬃcer.

SUSPECT CONTINUED FROM 1

He is also wanted in connection with a kidnapping and assault situation that happened in December. Monday’s shooting happened about 2:30 a.m. at 1219 Mitchell Street. Green identified the victims as Charity Payne, 28, of the same address,

and her boyfriend, Larry Hope, 28, of Byhalia. Payne was initially taken to North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo but was back in Corinth at Magnolia Regional Health Center later in the morning. Hope was taken to Regional One in Memphis, Tenn., and released later in the morning.

friends.” Boles remembers a Valentine’s Day story involving former MCHS teacher Curry Hendrix, a high school classmate of her mother, Shirley Russell Boles Prater. “It was kind of cool to get flowers sent to you at school on Valentine’s day and I got a single rose on Valentine’s with the card signed ‘From someone that you loves you very much’. When I got to Physics class, Mr. Hendrix said it was from my mother because of how the card was worded,” recalled Boles. “Annette (Kernodle Rickman) and I tried to figure out all day who had sent the rose. I got home and my mother asked if I had gotten the rose from her. I wanted the rose to be from a boy, so I went to my room and slammed my door.” Her stories may be based in Memphis or the fictional town of Mercy, Miss., but it is evident that this author’s heart still has a place in McNairy County.

A fouryear-old female who was also present at the home was unharmed. Allen Green said it appears Allen had been at Payne’s residence on Mitchell Street earlier in the evening, and a physical altercation occurred. “He then returned with a firearm and proceeded to shoot into the dwelling from the outside multiple times,” striking both occupants, he said. The shooter fled the scene on foot. Warrants are outstanding for Allen’s arrest on

charges of kidnapping and aggravated assault in connection with a situation that happened on Dec. 21. The victim in that case told police he was physically assaulted and held at a residence for approximately five hours by Allen and another subject after a verbal disagreement and threats to kill him. He was able to escape. The other suspect in the case, Terence Alexander, 28, of Cass Street, Corinth, was arrested Jan. 31 and charged with kidnapping and aggravated assault, said Green.

SAVANNAH, Tenn. -- Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) Special Agents are working with the Savannah Police Department in determining the circumstances surrounding a shooting that occurred just past midnight early Sunday morning at the Hardin County Fairgrounds on Clifton Road. Savannah Police Department officers responded to a 911 call reporting that a shooting had occurred at a party being held at that location, according the police department Facebook page. Upon arrival, officers found several individuals with gunshot injuries. Two of those victims were transported to the Hardin County Medical Center, where they are being treated. At least one other victim is being treated at the Regional

(EDITOR’s NOTE: The following story was compiled by Independent Appeal Assistant Editor Steve Beavers.) MICHIE, Tenn. – Water is great. Just ask Michie Elementary School students, who are pledging to drink more H2O and fewer sugary drinks. Students made the commitment by signing their names on tiny raindrops to kickoff Sodabriety Month in McNairy County on Monday. Sodabriety is a program designed to encourage students to drink more water and fewer sugary drinks in effort to reduce rates of obesity and diabetes in Tennessee. Each student, teacher and school staff at all county schools were presented with a free water bottle during the kickoff.

Lifespan Health, a non-forprofit community health organization in McNairy County, provided the water bottles. Close to 4,100 students in the county took the pledge. “This is a challenge for all of us to live our lives in a healthy way,” said McNairy Director of Schools Wayne Henry before signing his pledge. Michie School became the first school in the nation to install two filtered drinking fountains throughout the school in August. Five more fountains have since been added to the campus. Two filtered drinking fountains are now at each school in the county. “Hydration is important in school,” said Director of Community Health Programs for the Tennessee Clean Water Network Kimberly Pettigrew. Cherish McGee – a teacher’s aide at MES – came up with the idea to replace old water fountains at Michie with the filtered variety. A $50,000 grant funds two fountains at each school. “The more water we drink the more healthy and hydrated we are,” said Michie Principal Dr. Matt Alred. “It is very important for us to take advantage of the opportunity and make healthy decisions.”

ing and performing. She has always liked theater and being on stage. She admitted it has been a while since she was able to do any theater work, but she is a veteran of Corinth Theatre-Arts, having performed in the chorus in productions such as “Bye Bye Birdie,” “Footloose,” and she had speaking roles in “Tartuﬀe” and “Little Women.” Regarding the speaking roles, Lee said, “I was really nervous in Tartuﬀe because I had a big speaking part and it was this huge paragraph at one time and it all had to rhyme. Little Women was ... I guess you could say that was my breakout role because it was the biggest part I have ever had in anything.” In regards to her abilities, Lee said, “I’ve had people tell me I have a good voice, but it’s not really anything I wanted to pursue. I really wanted to pursue acting.” With acting being the main pursuit, one would ask why she decided to

Corinth resident Stephanie Lee recently shared her experience auditioning for the Emmy Award-winning NBC show “The Voice.” audition for The Voice. When asked this question, Lee said, “I just love to perform in general. So anything to break into performing would be good for me. I thought this was a good opportunity.” There is a process she described as part of auditioning for the nationally

televised show. She had to visit the show’s website and create an online account, she had to choose a city where the auditions would be taking place and a time when she could attend the auditions. “I went in not expecting anything, but I would have been proud if I had

made it. I don’t meet the stereotypical, pop star type. I have always related more to the older artists like Janis Joplin, because she surely didn’t look like what you’d expect,” said Lee After registering online and choosing her audition city, date, and time, she was sent her “artist pass” about a week before she was scheduled to be in Nashville. “You print it [the artist pass] oﬀ and they scan it when you get there,” Lee explained. “Then they took us all in and put us in a room. They took us out in groups and separated us into groups of 10.” From each group, people were taken out to perform. “You go in with one song that you’re performing, then if you get a call back, they may want you to sing one or two more songs.” Lee chose to sing “Me and Bobby McGee” — a song written by Kris Kristoﬀerson and Fred Foster, originally performed by Roger Miller. Lee had Janis Joplin’s rendition in

mind when she performed it, which is considered a “definitive” rendition of the song, according to an article by Richard Clayton in the September, 2016 edition of Financial Times. The performer said she did not get nervous until the crucial moment. “The nerves didn’t kick in until I got up there to sing. That was when I got nervous,” said Lee. After she finished the song, she said she knew it wasn’t her best performance due to her attack of nerves, but she still felt she did well. However, she did not get a call back from the audition. “They let us know when we didn’t get a call back. Unfortunately, no one from our group made it. I only saw two people the whole time I was there that had the call back cards,” she said. After the whole experience, Lee was still content with the outcome. “I think it was a good experience. It was a learning experience,” said Lee. “I would probably do it again.”

Corinth, Miss.

Lack of info not helping school funding rewrite JACKSON — There’s still time to have a real discussion about possible changes to Mississippi’s school funding formula. Last week’s derailment of what had once looked like a Jeff Amy legislative freight train might provide the opportunity. Columnist Unable to decide on what proposals to bring forward, leaders in the House and Senate both abandoned placeholder bills to die at Thursday’s deadline. The issue could still come back this year, but lawmakers will probably need Gov. Phil Bryant to call a special session. The process crashed in part because far too many people don’t understand what consulting group EdBuild proposed, or how the scenario put forward could be modified. Republican leaders should blame themselves for the widespread ignorance, never unveiling an official set of numbers and discussing options only in closed-door talks between Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves and House Speaker Philip Gunn. When supporters of changes have been willing to talk, backers of the current Mississippi Adequate Education Program have plugged up their ears — even the ones whose home districts could end up with more state money than the current formula would provide at full funding. The effort has been a mess from the start, with EdBuild restricted to meetings blessed by staff members of Gunn and Reeves, except for one shout-fest of a public hearing at the Capitol. Then, when the consultant finally reported weeks into the legislative session, there were no numbers for the plan’s overall impact on the state budget, or its impact on individual districts. Lawmakers said that’s because they hadn’t decided what to do yet, but they could have told EdBuild to present a range of scenarios. Many local superintendents and The Associated Press did the math anyway. And it’s clear that someone in the House looked at some numbers, because lawmakers decided to reject EdBuild’s proposal to have property-rich districts contribute a greater share of the formula cost. Gunn’s lieutenants instead announced that local district contributions would remain capped at 27 percent of formula cost, as they are now under the Mississippi Adequate Education Program. Felicitously, that decision would ensure the Madison County school system, which Gunn partly represents and whose superintendent lobbied heavily against higher local contributions, wouldn’t be required to cut spending or raise taxes. That left House members, and eventually senators as well, advocating a scenario that could require so much more state money that it would come close to the additional $172 million needed this year to fully fund the current formula. And that’s weird because Republicans have spent much of the last decade pleading that they’d like to pay the tab currently required by law, but just can’t scrape up the cash. Now with flagging tax revenues and an anemic economy, they can afford a big infusion? And then Gunn seemed to get cold feet on even that plan, instead opting to do nothing, leading Reeves to pull back as well. Even for those who believe Mississippi’s schools need a lot more cash, EdBuild’s analysis should raise some troubling questions. Is the local contribution cap truly equitable? Why should the state fund vocational and gifted programs at wildly varying per-student levels in different districts? And why should affluent districts get reimbursed for the district salary supplements paid to some teachers using local property taxes, when propertypoor districts get less money because they can only afford the state minimum salary? Those and other issues could be hashed out in the open. It’s not too late to educate people, if anyone still believes in that sort of thing.

Prayer for today Loving Father, may I not fall to nodding in the balmy air of luxury and miss the messages of love. Arouse me, that I may give and take in the treasures of love as they come my way, and that they may not pass unnoticed. Amen.

Alternate execution bill ignores larger issue STARKVILLE — There is no gentle way to say it, so here goes. House Bill 638 as passed by that chamber of the Mississippi Legislature isn’t a bill that considers whether the state should impose the death penalty. No, that’s not the matter at hand in this legislation. House Bill 638 is a bill that would govern the method by which the state would impose the death penalty should the current lethal injection method at some point in the future be ruled unconstitutional. Nationally, lethal injection as a method of execution is mired in litigation over the specific drugs used in the lethal injection “cocktail” and whether the practice actually is the “more humane” method that legislators thought they were adopting almost 20 years ago. The new legislation provides that if lethal injection cannot be the method, then

the state would proceed to implement the death penalty by nitrogen hypoxia. Sid Salter “ H y p o x i a ” occurs when Columnist someone has a lack of an adequate supply of oxygen. Giving a condemned prisoner 100 percent nitrogen would induce hypoxia, unconsciousness and death in what proponents in the scientific and legal communities suggest would be far more human than lethal injection. If nitrogen hypoxia is ruled unconstitutional, then the state would proceed with implementing the death penalty by firing squad. If the firing squad method is ruled unconstitutional, then the state would proceed under the new law to implement the death penalty by

electrocution. In other words, HB 638 says that Mississippi is prepared to carry out the imposition of the death penalty by any accepted form of execution used in the state’s history with the exception of the old cyanide-fueled gas chamber. Remember, Mississippi has engaged in almost all of the accepted forms of execution during the state’s history including hanging, electrocution, the gas chamber, and lethal injection. The notion that imposition of the death penalty can be somehow sanitized and guaranteed to be painless or free from fear and anxiety is one that flies in the face of what the death penalty really is – which is the most extreme form of punishment. Those who argue otherwise delude themselves. I have covered four executions incorporating death sentences carried out both

in Mississippi’s old gas chamber and in the state’s present lethal injection chamber. By any method, watching a condemned man strapped down and killed by the State of Mississippi is a sobering experience – and not one whit like the experience portrayed in the movies. House Bill 638 is the reaction to litigation filed challenging the “cruel and unusual punishment” aspects of lethal injection. Most of those legal challenges were filed as a delaying tactic to thwart the imposition of the death penalty. For good or ill, state legislatures are pushing back hard against those challenges with this type of legislation. The propriety of maintaining the death penalty at all is by no means part of the current discussion. Sid Salter is a syndicated columnist. Contact him sidsalter@sidsalter.com.

Legislature has active, busy week The House met as a whole throughout the week last week to discuss bills that made it out of committees and onto the calendar. Thursday, Feb. 9, was the deadline for representatives to discuss House Bills. Any bills that were not discussed by Thursday died on the calendar. Legislation regarding internet sales tax, House Bill 480, officially passed the House this week and will be sent to the Senate for consideration. The House approved House Bill 974, which would exempt certain state agencies from the rules, regulations and procedures of the state Personnel Board. The bill, originally discussed last week, will allow agency heads to run their departments how they see fit and remove employees’ civil service protections. Also discussed last week, House Bill 1226, which details plans for a Capitol Complex District, passed the House with an amendment that will give the city of Jackson more power in addressing the repairs and enhancements that need to be made in the area surrounding the Capitol. The bill will be sent to the Senate for consideration. The Rivers McGraw Act passed the House this week in the form of House Bill 1089. This bill states that within eight hours of the arrest of someone under the age of 21, law enforcement officers must make reasonable efforts to notify parents before releasing the minor. This bill was requested by the parents of Rivers Mc-

Graw, a college student who took his own life after being released from an arrest for Bubba s u b s t a n c e Carpenter abuse. The measure State p a s s e d Representative unanimously. House Bill 645, known as the Back the Badge Act, sparked a lengthy discussion among House members. The act increases penalties for violent crimes committed against law enforcement officers, first responders and emergency medical technicians. Many representatives expressed that, while they support protecting officers, they also want to see more done in regards to holding officers accountable for the fair treatment of all citizens. The bill passed by a vote of 85-31. The death penalty became a topic of discussion at the introduction of House Bill 638. The bill revises the methods by which the death penalty can be carried out. In the event that lethal injection is deemed unusable, death penalty could be carried out by use of a gas chamber, a firing squad or electrocution. Supporters say this is necessary to ensure that the death penalty can be carried out by giving alternatives in case one or more methods is blocked or appealed. Those opposed to the bill say the alternatives offered are too extreme and inhumane. The bill passed by a vote of 74-44. The introduction of

House Bill 926 proposed the Health Care Collaboration Act. This act would authorize the board of trustees of the state Institution of Higher Learning (IHL) and the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC) to enter into a health care collaborative with other health organizations in the state. Supporters say this act will save rural hospitals and consumers money, while helping to modernize health care in rural areas. Those opposed say this could give UMMC an unfair advantage over other hospitals that have power to enter into a collaborative, but are not backed by the state. The bill passed by a vote of 89-24. The House Transportation Committee presented House Bill 509 to the floor. This bill would require driver’s education curriculum to include information about how to respond to an oﬃcer in the event of being stopped or pulled over. An amendment was adopted which would also require the curriculum to teach driver’s education students their constitutional rights in regards to being pulled over by a police oﬃcer. The bill passed unanimously. Another transportation bill would expand requirements on seat belt usage. House Bill 539 would require passengers in the back seat of the car to wear a seat belt. The bill passed by a vote of 76-40. The House Education Committee presented two bills regarding compulsory school age. House Bill 567 increased the compulsory

school age of a child to the age of 18. House Bill 565, originally intended to allow students to miss school for preapproved activities, was amended twice during debate. The first amendment oﬀered would allow a student who turns the minimum compulsory school age at any time during the calendar year to be enrolled in school at the discretion of the parents or legal guardian. The second amendment would lower the minimum compulsory school age to five. Both House Bill 567 and House Bill 565 passed and will be sent to the Senate for consideration. A number of other bills passed the House this week including a bill that will make it easier for victims to receive a Criminal Sexual Assault Protection Order and a bill that lays out a plan to provide the Mississippi Highway Patrol with a new headquarters. Each of these bills will now be sent to the Senate for consideration.

Flynn hands in his resignation Latest snowstorm BY JULIE PACE, ERIC TUCKER AND JILL COLVIN Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s embattled national security adviser Michael Flynn resigned late Monday night, following reports that he had misled Vice President Mike Pence and other officials about his contacts with Russia. His departure upends Trump’s senior team after less than one month in oﬃce. In a resignation letter, Flynn said he held numerous calls with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. during the transition and gave “incomplete information” about those discussions to Vice President Mike Pence. The vice president, appar-

Israel leader’s White House trip clouded in uncertainty BY JOSEF FEDERMAN Associated Press

JERUSALEM — Israel’s prime minister heads to Washington this week for a high-profile meeting with President Donald Trump that suddenly is clouded in uncertainty. After embracing Israel’s hard-line nationalist right throughout his presidential campaign, Trump appears to have softened some of his positions on key issues since taking oﬃce. Although Wednesday’s meeting is expected to be much warmer than Netanyahu’s famously tense encounters with former President Barack Obama, the Israeli leader will still need to tread with caution on sensitive issues like Israeli settlement construction and the conflict with the Palestinians, Iran and the war in Syria. “It is a very important meeting. It

is a new president,” said Sallai Meridor, a former Israeli ambassador to Washington. The “positive thing” is that Trump’s policies are still not set, he said, “so there is an opportunity to listen and to develop and to impact the strategy that is being developed in the United States.” In dealing with such a divisive president, Netanyahu will also face some potential pitfalls. Key constituencies, including congressional Democrats and many American Jews, oppose Trump’s policies, while at home he is under pressure from his hard-line allies to push for policies that Trump may not support. Ahead of the visit, Netanyahu said he would handle ties with the U.S., Israel’s closest and most important ally, in a “prudent manner,” but he steered clear of specifics.

wallops Northeast BY PATRICK WHITTLE Associated Press

PORTLAND, Maine — Plow trucks and shovelers in the Northeast attacked the region’s latest winter storm, which dumped 30 inches of snow on a Maine town, made roads unsafe and immobilized millions of residents Monday. The storm was most active from New York to Maine, where blizzards shut down towns and left more than 2 feet of snow in many areas. Strong winds created problems in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, where a tree branch crashed through car windshield in Mechanicsburg, killing the driver. Many Maine residents

will be unable to dig out until Tuesday morning, as the daylong snowfall only began to let up Monday evening. Some schools already had canceled school for Tuesday, and more snow was forecast for Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Massachusetts on Wednesday. In Hopkinton, New Hampshire, attorney Matt Lane said he was a bit surprised by how much snow had fallen. “Up until last week we didn’t have very much; we had a little but not like this. And now suddenly, you can’t see over the snowbanks when you’re backing out of the driveway, and we’ve been running the snow blower 24-7,” he said.

Associated Press

OROVILLE, Calif. — Nearly 200,000 people who were ordered to leave their homes after a damaged California spillway threatened to unleash a 30-foot wall of water may not be able to return until significant erosion is repaired, authorities said Monday. The oﬃcials who issued the hasty evacuation order defended their decision, saying it was necessary to ensure public safety in the region downstream from the nation’s tallest dam, about 150 miles northeast of San Francisco. Engineers spotted a hole in the spillway, which they feared could have failed within an hour. The water level of the massive reservoir known as Lake Oroville dropped Monday, slightly easing fears of a catastrophic collapse. But with more storms on the horizon, crews raced to assess what happened and began dumping large boulders and sandbags into the spillway to prevent any more erosion. The acting head of the state’s Department of Water Resources said he did not know if anything had gone wrong and was unaware of a 2005 report that recommended fortifying the earthen emergency spillway with concrete for just such an event. The spillway had never been used in the dam’s nearly 50 years of operation, and it was not near capacity when it began to fail.

other people with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press Monday night. One person with knowledge of the situation said the Justice Department alerted the White House that there was a discrepancy between what officials were saying publicly about the contacts and the facts of what had occurred. Pence — apparently relying on information from Flynn — initially said sanctions were not discussed in the calls, though Flynn has now told White House officials that the topic may have come up. A second official said the Justice Department was concerned Flynn could be in a compromised position as a result.

Kellogg had previously been appointed the National Security Council chief of staﬀ and advised Trump on national security issues during the campaign.

Mondelez International, which owns Oreo, Chips Ahoy and Ritz, says it lost market share in the U.S. cookies and crackers segment amid heightened competition this past year. That’s a concern for investors since the United States is the company’s biggest market for biscuits. The company’s total revenue in North America grew 1.2 percent in 2016, excluding factors such as acquisitions and divestitures. J.P. Morgan analyst Ken Goldman notes that Campbell Soup – which makes Goldfish crackers – has picked up market share in the crackers category. He said he thinks the company has been selling the crackers at a discount, forcing rivals to follow suit.

The promotional activity partly underscores the competitive U.S. market. Discounting fights aside, aside Mondelez is trying to t gain an edge with products that seem healthier. That includes introducing slimmer Chips Ahoy cookies and A Good Go Thins crackers that b boast of having no artificial colors or flavors. Mondelez CEO Irene Rosenfeld also noted that a retooled manufacturing system gives the company greater flexibility in creating different package sizes. As sales growth slows in the U.S., packaged food makers have been trying to create more appealing packages that also boost profit margins.

Molson Coors Brewing serves up its fourth-quarter financial results today. The Denver-based brewer is expected to report improved earnings and revenue in the October-December quarter from a year earlier. That would be a turnaround from the previous two quarters, when earnings and revenue fell. Molson Coors operates in the U.S. through MillerCoors. It sells Coors Light, Blue Moon and other beers in South America, Europe, Asia and parts of North America.
