Phil Bryant in the news? Nope—this week’s headlines are about Ted DiBiase Jr. and FEMA; Bryant isn’t implicated. Former MS governor (2012–2020), Republican.
Ted DiBiase Jr. was found not guilty on 13 charges related to a large public corruption scheme in Mississippi. The case involved allegations of misusing over $3 million in federal welfare funds for personal purchases. The verdict ends a seven-year legal battle, with DiBiase expressing relief and intent to serve the community again.
