Legislator: No memorial signs for dilapidated highways ‘I don’t know that we’re honoring anybody if we put a sign for them beside a highway that we’re not going to maintain’

BY SARAH SMITH AND JEFF AMY The Associated Press

JACKSON — A Mississippi state representative tabled bills by senators to name highways after their constituents after the Senate killed a bill that would have provided funds for road repair. The move by Rep. Charles Busby, R-Pascagou- la, came as the Mississippi Economic Council, the state’s chamber of commerce, called Wednesday for immediate action on road funding. Busby is the chairman of the House Transportation Committee. “It was to bring some attention to the fact that we are not maintaining our roads as we should be. I don’t know what it’s going to take to get people’s attention,” Busby said. He added, “I don’t know that we’re honoring anybody if we put a sign for them beside a highway that we’re not going to maintain.” Busby tabled the memorial bills the day after Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, a Republican, killed a bill in the Senate that would have authorized an internet tax to pay for road repair. “Mississippi roads matter. It’s time to fix our crumbling roads and bridges,” Joe Frank Sand- Deanna Robinson/Dispatch Staff Brit Bingham, 13, catches a football at his home in New Hope Sunday afternoon.

PETER IMES General Manager ZACK PLAIR, Managing Editor BETH PROFFITT Advertising Director The MICHAEL FLOYD Circulation/Production Manager Opinion Dispatch MARY ANN HARDY Controller OUR VIEW CARTOONIST VIEW Vigilance best defense against child molesters In the United States, the majority of people in prison will someday return to society. For many, a “second chance” is good not only for the prison, but also for the larger community. As a society, we believe the punishment should fit the crime, but the cost associated with that belief is many prisoners released from prisons go on to commit other crimes. In fact, studies show that more than half of all crimes are committed by those who have previous criminal convictions. Perhaps most chilling is that what is true of the general population of offenders is also true of those who prey on the most vulnerable and innocent members of our society: child molesters. According to one study, 5.1 percent of convicted child molesters were rearrested for another sex crime within three years. While sentencing varies from state to state — with sentences ranging from 10 years to life in prison, there are numerous factors that affect the length of time offenders serve. Because these offenses are often among the most difficult to prosecute, many offenders accept plea bargains, which reduces the length of their sentences. Upon release, sex offenders are required to register with the national sex offender registry and are subject to probation/parole and prohibited from working in jobs that put them in close proximity to children. Even so, there are no assurances child molesters will not re-offend. Given that grim reality, the burden for as- suring the safety of our children relies not just on the criminal justice system, but on parents/ family and loved ones. It is incumbent on parents/guardians/loved ones to remain vigilant. There are things we can do to guard against these awful crimes. Experts urge us to keep close tabs on our kids. Be aware of their daily activities — where they go, who they are with, what they do on the Internet and through social media. Make it a habit to talk to your children about what they encounter each day. Be sure your children understand what is appropriate and inappropriate touching and the “red flags” they should watch for. Because child molesters generally groom their victims by building relationships with them, be careful to whom you entrust your children. Often predators serving as youth pastors, club leaders, coaches or mentors use their positions of trust to identify victims. While the vast majority of these group leaders have only the best interests of the child at heart, precautions must be taken. Make sure you know what’s going on in these groups and look for warning signs — how much one- on-one time does the leader spend with your child? What does the leader do? What does the leader talk about? Was there anything that made the child uncomfortable? These are safeguards, not failsafes, of course. We must remain ever vigilant.

Scott qualified in the 50 and 100 freestyle, events in which she owns the school record. At the recent SEC Championships, she became the first female swimmer in Alabama history to go under 22 seconds, smashing her own school record with a 21.84 to reach the podium and earn the bronze medal. In the 100 she won the SEC Champion- ships B final with a school record 48.48, taking ninth overall. Scott has competed at the NCAA Championships twice as part of relays. This will be her first trip swimming individual races. Nonnenberg, who earned honor- able mention All-America honors in the 400 individual medley last season, qualified in that event as well as the 1,650 freestyle. She owns the Alabama school record in both events. Nonnenberg set the school mark in the 400 individual medley at last year’s SEC Champion- ships and set the Alabama record in the 1,650 freestyle at the Georgia Tech Invitational this past November. This will be her third consecutive trip to the NCAA Championships. Alabama earned an automatic bid in the 200 medley relay on day one of the SEC Championships while the other two relays posted provisional cuts and were added to the field by virtue of their national rank. The Tide will announce its relay lineups later in the week. Alabama will have an opportunity to add to its NCAA squad next week when its divers will look to qualify at the NCAA Zone B Championships on March 6-8 in Auburn, Alabama. n Women’s tennis team ranked No. 34: At Tuscaloosa, Alabama, the women’s tennis team earned a No. 34 national ranking after a 6-4 start to begin the dual-match season, announced by the Intercollegiate Tennis Association. Last weekend, the Crimson Tide posted a 2-1 mark at the 69th-annual Blue Gray National Tennis Classic. In the first round, Alabama beat No. 40 Tulsa 4-0. Alabama lost to No. 5 Texas Tech 4-0 before shutting out Denver 4-0. NBA Warriors: Durant out with left knee injury OAKLAND, Calif. — Kevin Durant is down for the immediate future with a knee injury, and that’s a huge blow on both ends of the floor for the playoff-bound, championship-chasing Golden State Warriors. Stephen Curry and Co. are going to have to carry on without KD perhaps for the remainder of the regular season — and maybe longer. Durant will be out indefinitely after he sprained the medial collateral ligament in his left knee and bruised a bone in his leg during Tuesday night’s loss at Washington, leaving the Warriors without their shot-blocking big man who also does it all on offense. “Heal up my Man...we will hold it down til your back on the court with us.
