All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe!

Break 1: MOG



STORY 1:Ohio man convicted of molesting 8-year-old girl

In 2019, Kevin McKenna, a 66-year-old Ohio man, molested an 8-year-old girl in Lawrenceville and Loganville, Georgia, multiple times. Last week, a jury convicted him on charges including aggravated sexual battery and child molestation. He received a life sentence plus 20 years and will be registered as a sex offender for life. Gwinnett County District Attorney Patsy Austin-Gatson condemned his actions, emphasizing the trauma inflicted on the victim and the relentless pursuit of justice by the Special Victims Unit. The victim reported the crimes in 2021, detailing instances where McKenna touched her inappropriately and attempted sexual contact.

STORY 2:Cocaine trafficker sentenced to life in prison

Glenn Smithson, aged 52, was recently convicted and sentenced to life in prison without parole for trafficking cocaine in Gwinnett County for over three decades. The conviction followed a bench trial where he confessed to his involvement in trafficking drugs investigated in 2021. Prosecutors highlighted the efforts of law enforcement, particularly the Gwinnett County Police Narcotics Unit, in dismantling his criminal operation. Investigations revealed Smithson's activities through wiretaps and surveillance, leading to his arrest after a traffic stop where cocaine was found in his possession. This sentencing marks the end of a long history of drug-related convictions spanning 30 years. District Attorney Patsy Austin-Gatson emphasized the community's safety with Smithson behind bars.

STORY 3:Gwinnett's judicial candidates weigh in on the court system's challenges

In Gwinnett County's upcoming judicial races, candidates address pressing issues such as mental health in court proceedings and fairness in treatment. State Court Judge Shawn Bratton emphasizes civility and respect in the diverse community, while Deputy District Attorney Ramona Toole highlights the need to tackle case backlogs through proactive scheduling. In the Superior Court races, candidates stress equality and individualized approaches to justice. Juvenile Court Judge Rodney Harris advocates for equal treatment regardless of representation, while Magistrate Judge Kimberly Gallant supports treatment courts for accountability and recovery. In the race to replace retiring judges, candidates prioritize mental health support for defendants, with B. Thassanee "BT" Gutter-Parker proposing a comprehensive safety plan, Regina Matthews advocating for continued accountability court programs, and Tuwanda Rush Williams emphasizing intervention plans over incarceration for those with mental health diagnoses. Voters can explore detailed candidate responses on gwinnettdailypost.com.

Break 2: TOM WAGES

STORY 4:Georgia prison inmate pleads guilty in meth conspiracy

Christopher David Johnson, aged 46, has pleaded guilty to leading a methamphetamine conspiracy while incarcerated in a Georgia prison. He faces a minimum of 15 years to life in prison for distributing over 500 grams of meth. Johnson orchestrated the operation using multiple cellphones from prison, coordinating with accomplices through Facebook and text messages. His co-conspirator, Michael Paul Brown, was recently sentenced to 15 years for his involvement. The state budget includes $10.7 million for prison technology upgrades to prevent contraband smuggling. The U.S. DEA and law enforcement agencies from Georgia, Tennessee, and Virginia investigated Johnson's case, with his guilty plea entered in federal court in Abingdon, Virginia.

STORY 5:Emergency hearing on Mulberry cityhood referendum set for Thursday

An emergency hearing has been scheduled by a Gwinnett Superior Court judge regarding a lawsuit aimed at halting the Mulberry cityhood referendum on the May 21 ballot. Filed by retiree Stephen Hughes, the lawsuit contends that key aspects of the proposed city's charter are unconstitutional, including limitations on property tax collection and specified city services. Hughes' attorney argues that the referendum would deceive voters, as the proposed city's structure faces legal challenges. Supporters of Mulberry cityhood, such as Georgia House Majority Leader Chuck Efstration, denounce the lawsuit, alleging it is driven by special interest groups, possibly developers opposing the proposal. Citizens For Mulberry President Michael Coker maintains that cityhood enjoys community support and anticipates its passage, dismissing the lawsuit as a last-minute attempt to derail the referendum.

Five suspects were arrested by Gwinnett County police in connection with a case involving a stolen vehicle, a stolen firearm, and narcotics. Officers, aided by the Aviation Unit, found a stolen vehicle in a Duluth parking lot on April 4. The suspects, believed to be from Chicago, were detained. A search of the vehicle yielded a stolen firearm and narcotics.

Gwinnett County Police have issued a felony theft warrant for the arrest of Audrina Victoria Smith, a 29-year-old Maryland woman accused of stealing $3,200 worth of jewelry from a Lawrenceville store. According to police, Smith entered the Jewelry Box on Sugarloaf Parkway, tried on a Rolex necklace, then allegedly concealed it under her wallet and left without purchasing anything. Surveillance footage captured her leaving in a red Mazda with a temporary Missouri license plate. Police urge anyone with information on Smith's whereabouts to contact them or Crime Stoppers anonymously. Crime Stoppers tipsters may be eligible for a cash reward leading to an arrest and indictment.

STORY 4:Lawmaker mothers with children in tow are still few in numbers but bring missing perspective

More women in Georgia's Legislature are reshaping the Capitol's landscape, but their representation is still below parity with the population. Challenges like childcare and distance from the Capitol persist, particularly for mothers with young children. Rep. Anne Allen Westbrook exemplifies this, navigating long days away from her family in Savannah during legislative sessions. Sen. Kim Jackson, a new parent, highlights the difficulties of balancing lawmaking with childcare responsibilities. Recent changes allowing campaign funds for childcare aim to alleviate some barriers to public service. Despite these strides, women lawmakers continue to advocate for inclusive policies, recognizing the importance of diverse perspectives in shaping legislation.

STORY 5:Water-hogging data centers flagged in latest ‘Dirty Dozen’ environmental watchdog report

The Port of Savannah, a major container terminal, has experienced increased shipping traffic since the deepening of the waterway in 2022. However, the Georgia Water Coalition's Dirty Dozen 2024 report highlights the unintended consequences of record economic development, such as the threat posed by new data centers to Georgia's rivers. These data centers strain the electric grid and require large amounts of water for cooling, impacting the environment. The report also raises concerns about water resources in the coastal region, exacerbated by the deepening of the Savannah Harbor, and warns of threats to surface and groundwater. Additionally, the report expresses ongoing concerns about the Okefenokee Swamp amid plans for a titanium mine nearby.
