STORY 1:Motorcyclist Indicted for Gwinnett Crash That Killed Georgia State Trooper

Gerson Danilo Ayala-Rodriguez, 21, was indicted for murder by a Gwinnett County grand jury following a Jan. 28 crash on Interstate 85 near Old Peachtree Rd. that killed Trooper Jimmy Cenescar. Ayala-Rodriguez faces felony charges including felony murder, first-degree vehicular homicide, tampering with evidence, and fleeing or attempting to elude a police officer, alongside misdemeanor charges for reckless driving, speeding, driving without a license, operating a vehicle without insurance, and operating an unregistered vehicle. Officials stated Ayala-Rodriguez was traveling over 140 mph on his motorcycle before the crash, which occurred during a pursuit initiated by Cenescar. Ayala-Rodriguez allegedly destroyed the motorcycle's license plate during the chase. Cenescar, 28, died from injuries sustained in the crash. Ayala-Rodriguez was arrested five days later and remains in Gwinnett County jail without bond.

STORY 2:Gwinnett Police Searching for Missing 13-Year-Old Suwanee Girl

Sandy Michelle Soto, a 13-year-old girl, has been missing from her home on Welford Road in unincorporated Suwanee since April 21 around 11:45 p.m., as reported by the Gwinnett County Police Department. Her father reported her disappearance the next day. Sandy is described as Hispanic, 5 feet 4 inches tall, weighing 120 pounds, with black hair tied into braids. Authorities urge anyone with information to contact GCPD detectives at 770-513-5300. Tips can also be submitted anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 404-577-TIPS (8477) or online at www.stopcrimeATL.com. Crime Stoppers offers a cash reward for information leading to an arrest and indictment in this case.

STORY 3:Curiosity Lab Criterium in Peachtree Corners Features Top Cyclists

Peachtree Corners is hosting the second annual Curiosity Lab bicycle Criterium as part of Speed Week, featuring top cyclists from around the world, including Olympic medalists and champions. The event, happening on Sunday, will also include a running race, kids races, food trucks, vendors, and family activities.

Break 2: TOM WAGES – SCANDRETT



STORY 4:Georgia Power plan to leave coal ash in groundwater could be upended by new EPA rule

The U.S. EPA finalized rules aimed at reducing fossil fuel power plant pollution, eliciting praise from clean energy nonprofits for addressing health risks from coal ash disposal. The regulations target greenhouse gas emissions, requiring coal plants to cut carbon emissions by 90% by 2032. Georgia Power may need to revise plans regarding coal ash disposal and faces potential compliance challenges for legacy coal ash sites. Power industry groups criticized the rules, citing concerns about job losses and reliability. Litigation is expected, especially concerning carbon emissions rules. Georgia Power, despite reducing emissions, faces scrutiny for plans to extend fossil fuel capacity. Environmental groups urge utilities to reconsider gas-dependent future amid EPA's regulatory actions.

STORY 5:Dog theft causes same emotional turmoil as losing a child

New research suggests that dog owners who experience pet theft undergo significant emotional distress, akin to losing a family member or child. The bond between owners and dogs is profound, often intensifying the grief. However, legal frameworks often treat stolen dogs as mere property, limiting support from law enforcement. The manner of theft, whether through force or burglary, exacerbates the trauma. Owners may face delays in processing grief, akin to PTSD, especially if the dog isn't recovered. This study, published in Human-Animal Interactions, underscores the need for psychological and legal support tailored to the unique grief experienced by dog owners. Further research aims to develop support tools for those affected by dog theft.

The school, occupying 2.3 acres at the airport, is expected to commence operations this summer.

Lookup Flight Academy will renovate a hangar for its use, contributing to the creation of new opportunities and pathways for future leaders in aviation.

Kevin Maloof has been formally recognized for his significant contributions to sports in Gwinnett County with an induction into the Gwinnett County Sports Hall of Fame. This honor reflects not just his personal achievements but also acknowledges the collaborative efforts of the communities and individuals he engaged with throughout a coaching career that extended over 26 years. Maloof, who is particularly noted for his two-decade tenure at Dacula, has made enduring contributions in both football and baseball. His retirement in 2010 was prompted by health concerns, concluding a notable career distinguished by the development of a coaching legacy that includes figures such as his brother Keith Maloof and Paul Standard.

Break 1: MOG – GCPS SECKINGER



STORY 1:State Rep. Pedro Marin To Give Georgia Gwinnett College Commencement Speech

Representative Pedro “Pete” Marin (HD-96) will address the graduating class of Georgia Gwinnett College on May 9, 2024, ahead of their commencement ceremony. Marin, who has served as a state representative for 22 years, played a pivotal role in the creation of GGC and has been a staunch supporter of the college throughout his tenure. His speech will highlight the graduates' contributions to Gwinnett County and Georgia's economy, emphasizing their potential impact in various fields. Marin's extensive leadership experience and community involvement make him a fitting choice to inspire the graduating class as they embark on their professional journeys. The commencement ceremony will take place at Gas South Arena, beginning with the procession at 9:30 a.m. followed by the ceremony at 10 a.m.

STORY 2:Gwinnett County's first wetland park will open in 2025

Gwinnett County is set to open its inaugural county-operated wetland park in unincorporated Duluth next year, called Beaver Ruin Wetland Park. Costing $14.8 million and spanning 86 acres, the park aims to naturally filter stormwater runoff before it reaches nearby waterways. Commissioner Kirkland Carden highlighted its benefits for District 1 residents' well-being. Once completed, the park will offer recreational activities while serving as a natural filtration system for runoff from a 4.5-square-mile area. Gwinnett County aims for platinum-level certification in environmental stewardship, with funding from various sources including sales tax funds and the Recreation Fund. The park will feature amenities like a wildlife observation tower, boardwalk, playground, picnic area, and educational exhibits. Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson sees the park as a catalyst for positive change and sustainability.



STORY 3:Governor signs tax cut legislation into law

Governor Brian Kemp signed HB 1015 into law, accelerating Georgia's largest state income tax cut in history. Sponsored by Rep. Lauren McDonald and co-sponsored by other legislators, it accelerates the reduction in income tax rates, with the rate for Tax Year 2024 lowered to 5.39%. This marks a significant cut from the previous rate of 5.75%. The Office of Planning and Budget estimates taxpayer savings of approximately $1.1 billion in 2024 and $3 billion over the next decade. Kemp also signed several other bills, including HB 1023, which lowers the corporate income tax rate, HB 581, enabling a constitutional amendment for property tax relief, HB 1021, increasing the state's income tax dependent exemption, and SB 496, expanding criteria for historic home certification and extending tax credits for rehabilitation and rural zone revitalization.
