Break 1: MOG



STORY 1:Suspected Gang Member Allegedly Murdered Duluth Man at Strip Mall

Gwinnett County deputies arrested Alexis Coria, a 27-year-old alleged Surenos gang member from Lawrenceville, for the murder of Kevin Valdez in a Lilburn strip mall parking lot on May 19. Coria faces charges of malice murder, felony murder, and aggravated assault. The Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office Fugitive Unit tracked Coria to Acworth, where he was arrested without incident after being monitored leaving an address in Dunwoody. Valdez was found dead in his car at 880 Indian Trail Lilburn Road. The motive remains unclear, though the incident began between Burns Road and Dickens Road.

STORY 2:Seven men face RICO charges for allegedly breaking into 492 cars in Gwinnett

A joint operation involving multiple law enforcement agencies and the Gwinnett County District Attorney's Office resulted in the indictment of seven men on racketeering charges for breaking into 492 cars and stealing some of them over 17 months. The suspects, including residents from East Point, Fairburn, and Conley, face RICO charges. The investigation, starting in November 2022, involved fingerprint analysis, DNA evidence, surveillance videos, and cell phone data. Five suspects have been arrested, while two remain at large. The DA’s office aims to hold the defendants accountable, with each facing up to 20 years in prison if convicted.

STORY 3:Investigators: 61-year-old Norcross Woman Allegedly Set Two Homes on Fire

Gwinnett County Fire Investigators are searching for Hong T. Huynh, a 61-year-old Norcross woman, accused of intentionally setting two homes on fire early Saturday morning. The fires, which occurred on Buckingham Court and Turners Ridge Drive, about 3.5 miles apart, displaced multiple families and resulted in one serious injury. Both fires were deemed connected and deliberate. Investigators are seeking information leading to Huynh's arrest, offering up to $10,000 for tips. Anyone with information is urged to contact the Gwinnett County Fire Investigations Section or the Georgia Arson Control Hotline.

STORY 4:GCPS’ teacher induction program receives state recognition

Gwinnett County Public Schools’ (GCPS) teacher induction program has been rated as one of the best in Georgia by the Georgia Department of Education (GaDOE). After a detailed review, the program received an “optimized” rating, indicating excellence in all components and best practices. The GaDOE describes a high-quality induction program as comprehensive and sustainable, enhancing teacher retention and growth. GCPS Chief HR Officer Cathy Hardin praised the program's robust mentoring, professional development, and support network. In recognition, GCPS will receive a GaDOE digital certification seal and has been invited to mentor other districts and join the state's review team.

STORY 5:Two Gwinnett Students Named Emory University George W. Jenkins Scholars

Recent Gwinnett graduates Muhammad Rizwan and Helen Ejigu were selected for Emory University's George W. Jenkins Scholarship from nearly 35,000 applicants. This merit scholarship covers full tuition, fees, room, board, and includes a stipend, laptop, and access to a scholars network. Ejigu, a Mountain View High School graduate, was accepted to multiple prestigious universities including Georgia Tech and Notre Dame. Rizwan, a Seckinger High School graduate, was accepted to top institutions like Harvard and Stanford. The scholarship, funded by Publix Super Markets Charities, is awarded to first-year Emory students based on academic merit, financial need, and community service, offering extensive support and engagement opportunities.

STORY 6:AI finds plethora of potential sources for new antibiotics to fight superbugs

Using artificial intelligence, an international research team identified 863,498 promising antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) from the natural world to combat deadly drug-resistant superbugs. Published in the journal Cell, this study addresses the urgent need for new antibiotics as antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant public health threat, killing 1.27 million people annually. Researchers verified AI predictions by testing 100 peptides in the lab, finding many effective against resistant bacteria. The study involved analyzing over 60,000 metagenomes globally. The resulting AMPSphere database is now publicly available to aid antibiotic discovery.

STORY 7:Women overweight as teen or young adult more likely to have stroke: study

New research reveals that women who were overweight as teenagers or young adults are significantly more likely to suffer a stroke by age 55, while men do not share the same risk. The Finnish study followed over 10,000 participants for 40 years and found women overweight at ages 14 or 31 had a higher risk of ischemic stroke, even if they lost weight later. Overweight women at age 31 were also more likely to suffer bleeding strokes. Men had increased risk only if obese at age 31. The study emphasizes the long-term health effects of early obesity and suggests health professionals address weight issues in a non-stigmatizing manner.

We’ll have final thoughts after this.

Break 1: MOG



STORY 1:Ex-Cop Accused of Kidnapping and Murdering 16-year-old Girl Heads to Trial

Former Doraville police officer Miles Bryant is on trial for the kidnapping and murder of 16-year-old Susana Morales in July 2022. Morales disappeared while walking home, and her remains were found months later. Bryant is charged with malice and felony murder, kidnapping, attempted rape, and filing a false report. He declined a guilty plea and opted for a jury trial. Jury selection faced issues after a potential juror shared negative information about Bryant. Initial charges against Bryant for concealing Morales' death and filing a false report were upgraded to include kidnapping and murder. The Doraville Police Department fired Bryant following the charges.

STORY 2:HIDDEN VICTIMS: Sex Trafficking Pipeline Runs Through Gwinnett

In October 2019, A.L., a 26-year-old woman, escaped from Earnest Bernard Reed, a self-proclaimed pimp, after being trafficked and abused for over two years. Reed, who went by "Sway Huncho," forced her into sex work, subjected her to beatings, and deprived her of basic needs. She managed to call 911 from a hotel when Reed left her alone, leading to his arrest and subsequent 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking. Her case highlights the pervasive issue of sex trafficking in Georgia, affecting people in various settings, including hotels and private homes, with a high incidence in areas like Gwinnett County.

STORY 3:Sex Trafficking Survivors Target Hotels Through Lawsuits

Survivors of sex trafficking have been suing hotels for allowing their exploitation. Plaintiffs claim hotels ignored obvious signs of trafficking, like high visitor rates and excessive condom use, and sometimes even provided drug paraphernalia. Lawyers Jonathan Tonge and Pat McDonough, specializing in such cases, aim to make ignoring trafficking unprofitable for hotels. They’ve settled over 50 cases, with 20 ongoing. Legislative changes, like improved "rape shield" laws and a "lookback" period for civil suits, could help survivors. Post-settlement, attorneys like Cheryl Richardson manage survivors' finances to protect them from exploitation and ensure long-term stability.

STORY 4:HIDDEN VICTIMS: The Way Out: How Sex Trafficking Victims Escape and Survive

A.L., a 31-year-old sex trafficking survivor, was rescued in 2019 from an Atlanta hotel. For over two years, she was exploited and beaten by Earnest Reed, who profited from her suffering. Reed lured her in with a romantic relationship, then controlled her through violence and manipulation. Police rescued her from a Days Inn after she called 911, escaping while Reed was away. Since then, A.L. has rebuilt her life, found employment, and is raising her son. She lives in another state, free from drugs, and is considering studying criminal justice. Her story underscores the ongoing efforts and challenges in combating sex trafficking and supporting survivors.

STORY 5:Former Brookwood Swimmer, SwimAtlanta Coach to Compete on ‘The Bachelorette’

Thomas Nguyen, a 31-year-old from Gwinnett and Brookwood High grad, is one of 25 men competing on the 21st season of "The Bachelorette," starring Jenn Tran. Nguyen, who previously swam professionally for the Vietnamese National Team and reached NCAA Division II finals in college, now works as a retirement advisor. Known as Thomas N. from Tucker on the show, he plans to impress Tran with his Vietnamese cooking skills and romantic gestures. Nguyen hopes to find a love as strong as his parents' and is eager to start a family. The season premieres on July 8 on ABC and Hulu.
