JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - If you missed a few of the most important headlines and need to play catch up, no worries.

WLBT has gathered some of the top stories from our website to get you up to speed.

1). Exclusive documents confirm no body camera footage exists of Rankin Co. deputies shooting man in January

No video evidence exists of the January encounter between Rankin County deputies that lawyers allege led to torturing, tasing, and the unprovoked shooting of a man, according to exclusive documents obtained by the department.

Body camera logs reveal that Deputy Napoleon Valino activated his camera at 9:41 p.m., two hours before another deputy shot Michael Corey Jenkins in the mouth.

The next recording took place at 1:25 a.m., with Deputy Hunter Lewis activating his camera for nearly 20 minutes.

It’s unclear whether Valino or Lewis was one of the deputies who originally responded to that scene.

The documents show a gap of three and a half hours where no footage was recorded.

Three children who were students at a private Christian school for grades pre-K to sixth were killed in a shooting Monday in Nashville, as well as three adults. Police said the suspect also is dead.

Metro Nashville Police are investigating the shooting at The Covenant Presbyterian School.

Police said the suspect, identified as 28-year-old Audrey Hale, was killed by responding officers at 10:27 a.m. in a lobby-type area inside the school, which is attached to a church.

Police gave unclear information on the gender of the shooter. For hours, police identified the shooter as a 28-year-old woman and eventually identified the person as Hale. Then at a late afternoon press conference, Nashville Police Chief John Drake said that Hale was transgender.

After the news conference, police spokesperson Don Aaron declined to elaborate on how Hale currently identified.
