Vandalism hits Southside Baptist Church with spray-painted crosses and incendiary accusations of sex trafficking—targeting city and church officials—sparking alarm but not surrender.

Despite the threat, worship went on as planned, with members undeterred—many having faced crime firsthand. The church vows to stay, no matter the outcome, as police investigate.

Parking Contract in Crisis | Jackson News

Jackson city leaders are weighing a controversial parking meter contract with Metropolis, as the council prepares to vote on giving the mayor power to end the deal — but not without caution. The contract, which began in November, requires the city to pay $94,500 annually plus 2% of citation revenue, yet generated zero income from May last year to June this year — falling far short of its $100,000 projection. While some council members fear abandoning the contract without a solid replacement could worsen downtown parking chaos, city officials argue the move is about negotiating leverage, not immediate cancellation. They’re demanding clearer financial data from Metropolis and the cost of exiting the contract before making any final decisions — all while aiming to “stop the bleeding” and rebuild a smarter, more sustainable parking system.
