• Hinds County launches first countywide camera safety network (itbrief.news) — New solar-powered safety cameras are now part of a countywide network that specifically includes installations in the town of Terry, giving 911 dispatchers live views during emergencies. The system, limited to verified incidents, is meant to speed response times, support investigations, and deter problems like illegal dumping while trying to address privacy concerns. Officials say more Terry institutions can still opt in over time.
