I don't remember how much money it amounted to (about two hundred
million dollars,I think,but I could be way off on that) but about a year
or so ago,Mississippi spent a lot of money for some new technology so
that the Police and Sheriff's Department's radio communications will
work seameslessly together.The technology is for in case of bad weather
such as "Katrinas" and it helps communication in evacuating people down
South to further up North in Mississippi.It used to be that the Police
and Sheriff's Department's had their own seperate radio communications
systems and communicating between one and the other was sort of
difficult and created confusion between the Departments.Mississippi
spent that money very wisely.
