In the Tuesday, May 17, edition of the newspaper, we reported that the Greg Burroughs suit against the city had been settled.
The case was set to go to trial on May 23 in Hattiesburg, but instead a “confidential” settlement was reached on the only part of the claim that was deemed to have any merit by U.S. District Court Judge Taylor McNeel, which was Burroughs being held for too long at the Jones County Adult Detention Center without being charged with a crime.
