Hinds County DA Race Heats Up | Hattiesburg News

Hinds County is holding a high-stakes, non-partisan special election for District Attorney on November 3rd to fill the remainder of Jody Owens’ term—after he resigned and was disbarred following a federal bribery conviction. Five attorneys are vying for the role: Gwen Agho (current Assistant DA), Greta Mack, Darla Palmer (a familiar face who ran against Owens twice before), Marvin L. Sanders, and Wendy Wilson White. Governor Tate Reeves appointed Brad McCullouch as interim DA, though he’s not running since he lives outside the district. The winner will shape the future of justice in Hinds County for years to come. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
