Supreme Court: City Can't Call Duplex a ‘Drughouse'

The Clarion-Ledger is reporting that the Mississippi Supreme Court has upheld the order that city officials cannot refer to the Ridgeway Street duplex, allegedly demolished by Mayor Frank Melton and his entourage, as a "drughouse." The decision is a blow to the defense, which is trying to defend the mayor and his bodyguards' actions by claiming that the private home was a "drughouse" or a "crackhouse."

The Jackson Free Press broke the Ridgeway Street demolition story on. Read the original story here.
