JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - Two people were arrested after around 100 pounds of methamphetamine was recovered during a drug bust in Jackson. According to DPS Spokeswoman Bailey Martin, the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics, with assistance from Capitol Police, made the arrests in early August. During the execution of a search warrant on August 7, authorities arrested Racquel Taylor for aggravated trafficking after finding her in possession of 100 pounds of meth at a home on South Crownpointe Drive in Jackson. On August 12, officials also arrested Tyrone Samuel on charges of aggravated trafficking and conspiracy. Samuel is currently out on bond from Madison County. Authorities recovered approximately 100 pounds of methamphetamine, two pounds of marijuana, 1,000 doses of M30 counterfeit Oxycodone containing fentanyl, a Draco 7.62 rifle, a stolen Ford Bronco out of Kentucky, and a GMC Yukon. More arrests are anticipated.

-BLOODY LABOR DAY WEEKEND IN JACKSON- Over Labor Day weekend 2025 in Jackson, Mississippi—a Democrat-led, majority-Black city—gun violence claimed at least three lives and left four others wounded across multiple incidents, including a mass shooting at a birthday party as well as a 4th death from a hit & run that's not being counted as a homicide yet. In episode #1,051 of the Clay Edwards Show, we'll break down each case and examine why Black-on-Black shootings rarely make national headlines beyond local news. Tune in for the full unpack!

In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show, recorded on FAFO Friday, August 29, 2025, host Clay Edwards kicks off with a safety reminder amid flash flooding in Central Mississippi, sharing a personal close call on the road. The show dives into local crime news, covering a double murder in Brandon over two days. Clay details the targeted homicide on Highway 80 and the subsequent killing of Christopher Story, noting the suspect, Matthew Brian Kidd, was apprehended after being on the run. He discusses the case as involving white suspects with face tattoos, critiquing "white thuggery" and cultural appropriation, emphasizing that he calls out bad behavior in his own community without excuses like systemic issues. Clay addresses backlash over a photo of the sheriff smiling post-arrest, defending it as relief over removing a threat from the streets. He offers condolences to the victims' families and speculates on motives like drugs or disputes, while touching on stereotypes and profiling based on appearance and records. Shifting to national news, Clay reacts to reports of Donald Trump revoking Kamala Harris's Secret Service detail, questioning if it's pettiness or tied to potential legal actions related to the 2020 election, and notes that former vice presidents typically receive lifelong protection unless declined or revoked. Marking the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, Clay shares his survival story: riding out the storm in downtown Jackson with his dad during Category 1 winds, witnessing flooding and debris, and later helping evacuees by cooking and donating food to the Coliseum shelter. He discusses the influx of people from New Orleans' 9th Ward contributing to cultural shifts and crime in Jackson. Clay harshly critiques a recent Netflix Katrina documentary as a "dumpster fire" focused on New Orleans' systemic racism narrative, ignoring Mississippi's self-reliant response and the Gulf Coast's predominantly white communities that rebuilt without heavy federal aid. He praises Mississippi's handling under Governor Haley Barbour as a model of boots-on-the-ground action, contrasting it with Louisiana's issues. Listeners call in with their Katrina experiences, including a military veteran deployed for relief efforts who describes convoying from Texas, sitting idle on a Louisiana airfield despite resources like FEMA plywood going unused, and the inefficiencies in search-and-rescue operations. Another caller explains DMORT (Disaster Mortuary Recovery Team) activations, body recovery protocols (including autopsies to rule out murders disguised as storm deaths), and Mississippi's proactive response without waiting for federal direction. The episode wraps with reflections on judging modern governors by Barbour's Katrina standard, emergency management successes like MEMA, and ironic parallels between Katrina complaints about government inaction and current debates over federal involvement in urban crime.

In episode #1,050 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards delivers an unfiltered, no-holds-barred discussion on what he calls "trans terrorism," sparked by a recent school shooting in Minnesota where a transgender individual killed two children and wounded others at a Catholic school. Strap in for a raw dose of reality radio as Clay breaks rules when necessary, challenging censorship and speaking hard truths about transgenderism, politics, and societal issues. Clay opens with a warning: this isn't a light-hearted episode. He addresses the sensitive nature of the content, advising listeners with kids to tune out if they haven't discussed transgender topics yet. Fresh and fired up, Clay declares transgenderism isn't a mental illness—it's pure evil, engineered by Democrats and progressives, unleashed like a lab-created virus on America and the world. He argues we've been forced to affirm delusions, calling out the charade of gender swaps and refusing to play along. Pulling no punches, Clay lists recent violent acts involving transgender or gender-fluid individuals: the Minnesota church school shooting, Nashville school shooter, Colorado Springs non-binary shooter, Denver and Iowa school shooters, Aberdeen shooter, Colorado Tesla arsonist, Republican Party firebombing, and an AMC stabber. He sees a pattern—an epidemic of trans-involved terror—and slams calls for gun control, especially from figures like Trey Gowdy, who Clay mocks for blaming "young white males" without acknowledging the transgender element in many cases. Clay dives into cultural critiques, calling out Black Democrats for supporting a party he says funds evil while claiming Christianity. He differentiates "normal gay people" from the LGBTQ agenda, insisting trans ideology is evil incarnate, grooming vulnerable people—especially autistic youth—via the internet. Using AI queries, he highlights research showing transgender individuals are 3-6 times more likely to have autism traits and face suicide rates 7 times higher than cisgender adults (80% have considered it, 40% attempted). He labels "gender-affirming care" as mutilation, akin to genocide targeting the spectrum. The episode unpacks political angles: the shooter's manifesto mentioning "Kill Trump," ties to Obama-era policies, and criticism of Minnesota's mayor for defending the trans community post-shooting while ignoring victims. Clay plays clips, including Tim Walz's gaffe about being "friends with school shooters" and Trey Gowdy's gun control remarks. He warns trans people hate conservatives and Christians, urging caution around them and questioning why Catholic schools hire trans staff—likening it to letting a fox in the henhouse. Listener calls add fire: one praises quick service from a sponsor but pivots to blaming parents for pushing trans trends on kids (citing celebrity examples like Magic Johnson's and Dwyane Wade's children); another shares a story of a school's open house decked in BLM and rainbow flags, suggesting it sowed seeds for tragedy. Clay corrects misconceptions—like defining trans as men pretending to be women (and vice versa)—and addresses violence against trans people, arguing most cases involve sex workers tricking clients, not broad transphobia. He teases potential retribution from fed-up patriots but clarifies he's not calling for it, emphasizing America’s crossroads: good vs. evil, no gray areas. Fired up and unapologetic, Clay vows to shake off "weak men and cuck punks" for better times, blending humor, rage, and common sense. This episode fights for America's soul, spotlighting corruption in Jackson, Mississippi, and beyond. If you're ready for uncensored talk on cancel culture, culture rot, and breaking tyrannical rules, this is your show. Award-winning podcaster Clay Edwards keeps it real—boom shaka laka boom!

In Episode #1,042 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards recaps his birthday weekend with unfiltered enthusiasm. Reflecting on a much-improved year—unlike last year's mental struggles—he thanks fans for over 700 social media wishes, texts, and calls. Friday night kicked off with a lively dinner hangout with friends. Clay indulged in appetizers like fried crab claws, stuffed mushrooms, and fresh-baked bread slathered in sweet honey butter—so filling he barely touched his massive tomahawk ribeye. Having devoured a ribeye steak sandwich there for lunch earlier (followed by a two-hour nap), he boxed up the steak for steak-and-eggs brunches Saturday and Sunday, ensuring he got his money's worth. Saturday brought a road trip to Philadelphia, MS, for an evening of dining and boxing at Bout Time Brawling—a professional event packed with passion and entry-level pros. First stop: The Porter House in downtown Philadelphia, a spot Clay highly recommends for its phenomenal food and vibe. It's his second visit, perfect for a scenic drive, podcast listening, and quality time with a significant other or friends—a healthy change of scenery. Arriving late (around 8:30 PM after fights started at 7:00), they caught the main card but missed buddies Tyler Noseworthy (went to decision, goal: avoid knockout) and Bubba (victorious). Highlights included world-famous Mississippi rapper and influencer Topher's first sanctioned pro fight win against a wild opponent; local girls Hailey Schell's David-vs.-Goliath TKO over towering "Pookie" (Hailey, compact and powerful, dropped her like a tree—video on Clay's socials, even shared with Pearl Mayor Jake Windham); and Katy Stegeman's solid victory. The main event saw friend Luke Greenlee (quiet, unassuming beast) go toe-to-toe in a grueling battle, winning on judges' cards to go 3-0. Clay shares raw footage soon, emphasizing the raw power and lesson: "Be careful who you mouth off to—dynamite comes in small packages." The night was a family affair too—10 people total, including Clay's 76-year-old dad, who rode along and credited testosterone therapy for his renewed energy and quick wit, making the late-night drive home (ending around 11 PM) enjoyable with non-stop conversation. A fountain-of-youth boost visible in Dad's sharper memory and stamina.

In Episode #1,042 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards dives deep into allegations against Black Democrat mayors across America for misleading the public on crime statistics. Clay asserts they've been "caught lying," emphasizing that while crime may appear down in reports, it's due to underreporting rather than actual reductions. He questions the existence of prominent Black Republican mayors, suggesting they're overlooked because they don't "play Black for a living." Drawing from an AP story shared by local media, Clay highlights mayors disputing President Trump's claims of "lawless" cities like Washington DC, Baltimore, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Oakland—all led by Black Democrats. Trump deployed 800 National Guard members to DC after a DOGE employee's attempted carjacking, citing rising crime, homelessness, graffiti, and potholes. Clay mocks the mayors' responses, noting they credit drops in violent crime to youth engagement, gun buybacks, and community partnerships post-pandemic spikes. Savannah, GA Mayor Van Johnson (African American Mayors Association president): Calls for amplifying voices against rhetoric of rampant crime, claiming no evidence supports it. He views Trump's actions as targeting Black or Democratic mayors, pushing for safer cities via local strategies. Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson: Scoffs at Trump's remarks, touting 30% homicide drop and 40% fewer shootings. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass: Labels federal intervention a "performative power grab," with homicides down 14%. Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott (described as LGBTQ+): Reports historic decreases in homicides and non-fatal shootings since 2022, carjackings down 20%, attributing it to a public health approach via violence prevention plans. Scott accuses Trump of exploiting crime as a "dog whistle" and undermining anti-violence funding. Oakland officials: Note 21% homicide drop and 29% violent crime decrease in early 2024. Clay counters that these "monumental declines" are illusory—homicides may be down 43% in Jackson, MS, but it remains America's deadliest per capita (31.3 rate), topping St. Louis, Louisville, Birmingham, and Baton Rouge (all Southern Black-majority cities). He argues stats are skewed because crimes aren't reported (e.g., ignored 911 calls), and questions if federal intervention in Jackson would be welcomed or labeled racist. Clay criticizes "violence interruption" programs as ineffective replacements for policing, calling the narrative a "grift" for funds, and urges new Jackson Mayor John Horne to distance from such groups. He ties it to broader issues: Black mayors overlooking accomplishments while gaslighting on safety, with crime enabling more federal aid demands. Clay invites Mayor Horne for dialogue, reserving judgment but warning against "race-adjacent" affiliations. This segment sparks debate on accountability, with Clay advocating consequences over excuses in "Democrat third-world hellholes."

Clay shares personal updates: a great birthday weekend, a steak-filled feast, and attending Bout Time Brawling fights in Philadelphia, MS, where locals like Luke Greenlee (3-0), Bubba, Topher, Hailey Schell, and Katy Stegeman shine in epic bouts—highlighting underdog stories and the thrill of entry-level pro boxing. Local news hits hard: an 18-wheeler fire delays I-20 traffic near Ellis Avenue, plus a mass shooting in Jackson leaves one dead. Clay calls out "Black Democrat mayors" for allegedly lying about crime drops in cities like Jackson, DC, Chicago, LA, Baltimore, and Oakland—claiming stats are manipulated via underreporting (e.g., Jackson homicides down 43% but still #1 per capita in America). He debates federal intervention under Trump, questions violence interruption programs, and praises testosterone therapy's life-changing benefits. Caller Angela from The Mic Magazine joins for a raw discussion on government assistance abuse, self-preservation in communities, and holding single parents accountable—emphasizing discipline over handouts.

Shaun is back for an epic FAFO Friday show!!

Urban black communities like Jackson, Mississippi and Washington D.C. are some of the most dangerous places on earth, why are the people who inhabit them so violent and dangerous and can we as good Christians do to save them from themselves?

Edwards discusses the Metro Center Mall's proposed $875 million mixed-use redevelopment by Emerchant Capital, covering 70 acres with private and public funding. Skeptical, he recalls failed past plans like an amusement park, high-rise condos, a Randy Travis truck stop, and a movie studio, labeling them pipe dreams. He argues the location in West Jackson dooms retail or residential efforts, suggesting alternatives like a prison, Amazon hub, casino, or charter school to spur economic activity. Listeners propose ideas via texts, including a youth outreach center, solar farm, event hall, or flea market, but Edwards favors job-creating ventures over non-profits.

In episode 1039 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards opens with reflections on living in interesting times, combating cancel culture, and highlighting Jackson's overlooked issues. He shares personal anecdotes, including getting bitten by ants and childhood remedies like bleach baths, while greeting early livestream commenters. Edwards discusses the Metro Center Mall's proposed $875 million mixed-use redevelopment by Emerchant Capital, covering 70 acres with private and public funding.

Listeners propose ideas via texts, including a youth outreach center, solar farm, event hall, or flea market, but Edwards favors job-creating ventures over non-profits. A major segment covers Jackson City Council's new ordinance banning masks (including hoods) in outdoor public spaces to curb crime, proposed by Interim Police Chief Joseph Wade. Approved 7-0, it aims to aid facial recognition and prevent robberies, but exemptions for health, holidays, employment, religion, and ages under 14/over 60, plus no stops solely for mask-wearing, render it ineffective in Edwards' view. He criticizes it as toothless pandering, worsening safety in Black communities by avoiding real enforcement. Edwards announces new co-hosts: Shawn Yurkron returning Friday, and a former Miss Louisiana/Miss Universe contestant next week for pop culture and politics. He requests prayers for a Madison Ridgeland Academy student hit by a truck, a family friend. Briefly, he touches sports (Vikings' gay cheerleaders, Trump's potential executive order on college sports, LSU player aiding murder suspects) and national stories (Sydney Sweeney ad backlash as online exaggeration, a woman's extreme dating demands). Callers debate solar farms in Raymond (policy failures, economic links to AI/data centers) and Jackson's crime influences like victimhood narratives. Edwards closes frustrated with Jackson's self-sabotaging policies, urging community action against crime and cultural rot, emphasizing accountability over excuses.

Flair on The Clay Edwards Show: Wrestling Icon Talks Legacy, Cannabis, and Life At Southern Sky Brands in Canton, MS, wrestling legend Ric Flair joined host Clay Edwards for a lively interview blending nostalgia, business, and personal insights. Edwards, a fan since childhood, shared a vivid memory: watching TBS wrestling at 5:05 p.m., where the Four Horsemen broke Dusty Rhodes' leg. His grandfather called Flair "the dirtiest motherfucker in the game"—a compliment in Flair's eyes. At 48, Edwards thanked Flair for decades of memories. Flair's favorite era? NWA in the 1980s. He recalled Jackson Coliseum shows and nights at the Reservoir, bars like The Dock (now gone) and Martin's (still thriving). The chat focused on Flair's "Ric Flair Drip" cannabis line with Southern Sky. Overwhelmed by the facility's quality, Flair praised the team and sales across 200 dispensaries. Edwards, after touring, called it true medical-grade; if he partook, it'd be Flair's brand over competitors. Entry into cannabis came via a late associate and Mike Tyson, a friend since the '80s. Tyson, still in shape post-Jake Paul fight, partnered with Flair. Flair stays fit, deadlifting 400 lbs. Being Flair means constant fame—photos everywhere, but 99% positive. "Living the gimmick" has pitfalls, like tax issues, but he enjoys it. Edwards dubbed him a true icon. Hulk Hogan's recent death added poignancy; Flair plans Biloxi visits before Sept. 2, appearances in 14 states, CarShield ads with Ice-T, and autograph sessions. WOO Energy drink eyes China and Thailand markets. Travel tales included urging Edwards to visit Malaysia; Edwards shared his flying fear and brief LA stint. Excited for Ric Flair Drip's growth, Flair credits Southern Sky's promotion. He appreciates Mississippi's warmth (and drinking prowess over Canadians). On WWE's ESPN deal, Flair's humble: they're printing money. Hogan's decline—surgeries left him diminished—sparked anxiety; Flair's 2017 crisis (organ failure, ICU, stoma) led to life-support limits. Edwards thanked Flair, eager for more MS visits. Flair reciprocated, honored to share his story.

In this electrifying episode of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards kicks off with an unforgettable recap of his recent interview and hangout with wrestling legend Ric Flair. Fresh off a high-energy day that included personal stories about shared health challenges like colostomy experiences, signing the FAFO Championship belt, and enjoying casual meals at local spots, Clay reflects on the thrill of meeting a childhood hero—especially in light of recent losses like Hulk Hogan. He shares behind-the-scenes details, from Flair's larger-than-life personality to switching from beer to mixed drinks to keep up, all while emphasizing the importance of chasing dreams and ignoring naysayers who try to pull you back with "crabs in a bucket" mentality. Shifting gears into current events, Clay dives into a heated discussion on a disturbing incident in Copiah County, where firefighters responding to a deadly wreck were allegedly assaulted by a crowd, including the father of the victim who later turned himself in on felony charges. Clay calls for accountability, highlighting the tragedy of the crash tied to street racing and urging equal outrage over violence regardless of race. He stresses the need for consistent application of the law, critiquing double standards in media coverage and public reactions to interracial crimes. The episode takes a deeper turn into societal issues, exploring fatigue over perceived biases in hate crime prosecutions and law enforcement narratives. Clay revisits past cases, like the 2015 beating death of Eric Hambrick and the 2017 murder of Chelsea Kirchen, flipping the script to question how reactions would differ if roles were reversed. He critiques cultural excuses for criminality, touches on the impact of naming conventions from Freakonomics, and calls out inconsistencies in stories amplified by groups like BLM, advocating for body cams as tools for truth. Wrapping up with a mix of humor and hard truths, Clay encourages listeners to fuel success with negativity from haters, pursue growth, and demand fairness in justice. It's a no-holds-barred FAFO Friday full of raw insights, personal anecdotes, and calls for real change—unfiltered talk that challenges the status quo and inspires action.

Strap in for Episode 1,035 of The Clay Edwards Show – the most incendiary radio show in America! Host Clay Edwards kicks off with unfiltered talk, explaining he's a news reactor, not an investigative journalist, and shouts out Kingfish for deep dives. Dive into the hilarious yet tasteless Mississippi Mud Monsters' blunder: they posted pics with wrestling legend Ric Flair, mistakenly calling him Hulk Hogan (who just passed away – Flair flew straight from the funeral!). Clay roasts their apology, which throws a young marketer under the bus, and ties it to wrestling's "identity crisis" theme. Clay shares his excitement for interviewing Ric Flair today (airing tomorrow!), reminiscing about childhood wrestling memories with his grandfather watching Flair and the Four Horsemen on TBS. He draws parallels between politics and pro wrestling – good guys vs. heels, like Trump body-slamming Hillary. Personal growth shines through: Clay turned down partying with Flair last night at Martin's Downtown to stay sharp, reflecting on starting the show at 42 after selling cars, sacrificing relationships for success, and crediting faith for his turnaround. Health takes center stage: A CDC report reveals Americans get over 50% of calories from ultra-processed foods linked to obesity, diabetes, and cancer. RFK Jr. calls it poisoning; Clay slams excuses like "healthy eating is expensive" and debates banning sweets from EBT to protect taxpayer investments in future healthcare. Listener calls highlight soy's estrogen effects on kids (the "soy boy" phenomenon), feminizing youth, and higher breast cancer risks in certain groups. Sponsors get love: Men's Health for testosterone boosts, Mazda of Jackson, McBee's for lunch specials, and more. Clay motivates: Chase dreams – it's never too late!

Black men are attacking white people without consequence all around American, and even here in Mississippi. We broke down 3 major stories that prove my point!!

As we've found out more about the Copiah County firefighters being assaulted after a drag racing accident took the life of a young man over the weekend I'm shocked!!

I've now officially banned all black, white and others who've ever used the N-word under any circumstances from ever appearing on the Clay Edwards Show!!

Mississippi has a syphilis epidemic thanks to Hinds County having the highest rate of STD's than any other county in the entire United States.

I make the argument for why not sharing a bed with your spouse or significant other could lead to a happier relationship or marriage.

In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards kicks things off with a lively discussion on whether couples need to share a bed for a happy marriage. Drawing from personal anecdotes and listener feedback, Clay explores the importance of quality sleep versus physical closeness, sharing stories of long-married couples who thrive in separate beds due to snoring, heat, or restlessness. He emphasizes prioritizing rest to be a better partner during waking hours. Shifting gears, Clay tackles the alarming spike in assaults by Black individuals on white people across the U.S., including Mississippi. He breaks down a chaotic incident in Copiah County where volunteer firefighters were attacked by a crowd of up to 100 during a drag racing crash response, leaving several hospitalized. Clay condemns the lack of arrests and questions the mob's logic in delaying aid out of frustration over response times. Nationally, he covers the brutal beating of "Big Balls," a former DOGE staffer, who intervened in a carjacking in Washington, D.C., only to be assaulted by a group of teens. Clay highlights media bias, noting reversed roles would spark outrage, and praises Donald Trump's call to federalize D.C. for crime control, including prosecuting minors as adults. He ties in a Cincinnati attack on an elderly white man and woman, criticizing officials for downplaying potential hate crime motives and blaming alcohol. In a satirical segment, Clay "bans" anyone who's ever used the N-word from the show to underscore hypocrisy in outrage over language versus violence, urging equal accountability across communities. Finally, Clay addresses Mississippi's STD epidemic, ranking high nationally for syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia—especially in Hinds County, the U.S.'s worst. He attributes it to cultural issues like lack of discipline rather than education gaps, calling for self-reflection and safer practices. Packed with raw opinions, listener texts, and calls for accountability, this episode challenges norms on relationships, crime, and health. Don't miss the heated takes! (1872 characters)

ME EXPLAINING WHY I LOVE CRYOTHERAPY & RED LIGHT THERAPY

CHUCK E CHEESE GETS ARRESTED IN FULL COSTUME

JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - Carly Gregg’s attorney filed a motion for additional time, citing “certain facts and circumstances concerning Appellant’s lead trial counsel.” In the motion, filed on July 30 and approved on July 31, Attorney James Murphy, on behalf of Gregg, requested an additional 30 days to prepare the Appellant Brief. Murphy states, in the motion, that due to the “substantial size and complexity of this matter,” he was unable to finalize the brief by the previous deadline. Murphy went on to include, in the motion, that certain things have come to light regarding Gregg’s lead trial counsel, saying this new information “may bear relevance to the issues raised in this direct appeal.” Gregg’s lead trial counsel was Bridget Todd. According to the motion, the new information came to light “within the past thirty (30) days” of filing the motion. On July 4, Jackson Jambalaya released the 37-page motion for divorce issued against Todd on the grounds of “habitual cruel and inhuman treatment.” In the motion, the Court found that Todd falsely accused her ex-husband of a crime, then used the crime as a basis to get emergency custody of her ex-husband’s children. Todd also used her position as an attorney to “intimidate and manipulate” her ex with “legal threats.” In addition to multiple other findings. 3OYS reached out to Murphy, asking if the information he addressed in the motion was in response to Todd’s divorce decree and the Court’s findings. Murphy stated, “Our request for additional time is directly related to the newly discovered information about Carly’s lead trial counsel that raises profound concerns about the integrity of her original defense. Some of these issues involve serious allegations of dishonesty and misconduct by counsel in other legal matters, including sworn proceedings. While we are still in the process of fully investigating how this may have impacted Carly’s case, the severity of what we’ve learned demands a thorough and unhurried review. Carley deserves to have her conviction scrutinized under the highest standard of fairness, especially in light of these alarming revelations about her former counsel’s conduct.” The request for more time will also enable Murphy to address other issues raised in the motion. In September of 2024, Gregg was found guilty of murdering her mother, Ashley Smiley, attempted murder of her stepfather, and tampering with evidence. She is currently serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole. An appeal has been filed with the Mississippi Supreme Court The new deadline for the Appellant’s Brief is August 19, 2025. You can read the full motion filed by Gregg’s attorney below.
