Madison County

Some other notable examples.

Madison County, Mississippi fell for a $2.7 million scam.

I don't have much insight into that.

Peterborough, New Hampshire fell.

I'm your host, Gerard Gibbert, on location at the Country Club of Jackson, Mississippi.

We're here for the Madison County Business League and Foundation Vision Awards Luncheon, a big event planned today.

In the Supertalk headquarters studio, we'll be guiding you through the middle of your day with facts, fodder, and fine music.

Morning there, Will.

We're going to kick things off with guests today at 10.50, final segment, hour one.

It'll be Joey Deason.

He is the executive director of the Mississippi, pardon me, of the Madison County Economic Development Authority, and he'll be joined by Jan Collins.

She's in charge of this big ordeal.

Check out the podcast, which will be up and available right after this show to all podcast platforms.

We're on 104.3 FM, also live right now, Central, Hines, Rankin, Madison County in Mississippi.

And then you can listen to the tune-in app and et cetera.

Cause there's no excuse, plenty of ways to listen.

Uh, she had to spend the night in jail before being released on her own recognizance after being arrested for domestic violence and she is on leave, uh, the DA office confirms there in Hinds County.

Because she F-A-O'd in Madison County.

Is that where it happened at?

I believe it was in Ridgeland, if I'm not mistaken.

You know, this is two miles off the interstate.

And, uh, we expect, uh, definitely Oxford, Madison, Cleveland Uh, Greenwood, Winona, maybe Memphis.

You know, we expect people to come down and, uh, see what we got going on.

The purpose of this event-

You know, she's huge.

But we also work on a really small scale.

We've had an artist here in Madison, Sam Clark.

He's come up and he has, um, done some community workshops where people have made, like, little, we call them mushroom people, but he, they, like, l- little clay mushrooms that have faces.

Research by Payments Intelligence also indicates that scam underreporting is growing, with the proportion of victims who did not report incidents rising twenty-six percent over the past year to eleven percent.

To Mississippi now, where a cyberattack on US Next, which hosts websites for Madison County and sixty-eight other state government jurisdictions, has disrupted online services across the state.

16WAPT reports that Madison County officials have suspended access to services while conducting risk assessments, warning that the outage could last several days and affect residents paying bills, taxes, and fines.

The Mississippi Department of Public Safety is coordinating with local and federal partners to investigate the incident, which follows a separate cyber intrusion that disrupted computer systems in Vicksburg.

Next to Nebraska, where Governor Jim Pillen declared an emergency on October ninth after a cyberattack affecting Lincoln County and the city of North Platte disrupted internet and telephone services.

Now let's hear at length from a few of the speakers at Thursday night's hearing.

Leah Ferretti of Madison County represents the Mississippi Federation of Republican Women.

These are not simply just lines on a map.

Those lines represent real people like these people in this room.

Yeah.

So, uh, thank you, Shawn, and good luck this morning in your trial up there in Madison County.

So, as a bar owner, former bar owner, w- we, and I would like to know the bar, 'cause th- there's a difference in a bar and a nightclub.

A big difference in a bar and a nightclub.
