STORY 1:Woman Found Guilty but Mentally Ill in Stabbing Death of Infant

A Cherokee County jury found Chloe Alexis Driver, 24, guilty but mentally ill of murdering her 13-month-old daughter in 2020. Driver was convicted of multiple charges, including malice murder and cruelty to children. Despite a defense plea of insanity, the jury held her criminally responsible. The crime occurred in Canton, where Driver, part of a nomadic group, stabbed her daughter and herself. The child died from her injuries despite rescue efforts. The trial featured 21 witnesses and 135 exhibits. Sentencing is set for December 12, with the Department of Corrections addressing Driver's mental health needs.

STORY 2: Shepherd Receives National Academies Award for Science Communication

 J. Marshall Shepherd, a distinguished professor at the University of Georgia, won the top prize in the National Academies' Schmidt Awards for Excellence in Science Communications. These awards honor those who effectively communicate scientific issues to the public. Shepherd, known for his work in weather and climate science, hosts "Weather Geeks" on The Weather Channel and contributes to Forbes. He emphasizes the importance of engaging with the public to combat misinformation. Shepherd's TEDx talks on climate change are widely viewed, and his recognition highlights the value of multidisciplinary communication in science.

STORY 3:Love Where You Live Initiative Raises Nearly $3K for Nonprofits

Cherokee County's "Love Where You Live" initiative launched its first Community Giveback, donating nearly $3,000 to combat food insecurity and support local seniors. The funds were split between Never Alone Community Food Pantry, which serves over 11,000 households, and Stand Up For Seniors, which provides financial and home repair assistance to seniors. The initiative raised funds through T-shirt sales, with plans to continue supporting local nonprofits. The program highlights community members and provides resources to local charities, with ongoing opportunities for involvement and fundraising.

STORY 4:Cherokee County Students Earn Honors for Web Design Skills

Nine Cherokee County School District students were recognized for their exceptional technology skills in the Adobe Express Challenge, sponsored by the district's Technology and Information Services division. The quarterly competition invites students to showcase creativity and digital skills by creating a webpage about their future goals. Over 150 entries were judged, and winners received certificates and ribbons. The winners spanned grades 3-12, with first-place honors going to Parker Guyette (Grade 5), Kierstin Foster (Grade 8), and Ella Biesterveld (Grade 12).

STORY 5: Industrial Machinery Business Coming to SW Cherokee

 The Cherokee County Board of Commissioners approved a rezoning request for DJD Southeast Real Estate Holdings to build a 35,000-square-foot industrial machinery sales building on Little Ridge Road. Despite concerns from residents about traffic and road suitability, the development was deemed a good fit. The project includes conditions like a $20,000 contribution for infrastructure improvements and specific landscaping and traffic management measures. Commissioner Corey Ragsdale noted the reduced truck traffic compared to previous proposals and emphasized working with engineers to ensure proper access to minimize neighborhood disruption.
