STORY 1: Gwinnett Man Arrested For Aggravated Cruelty To Animals

The Gwinnett County Police Department arrested Richard Beatty Hart, 78, of Duluth, on charges of aggravated cruelty to animals after he allegedly shot a Husky caught in a trap at his home. The incident occurred on Citrus Drive, where Hart claimed the dog was chasing his cats. He faces additional charges, including possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and reckless conduct. Authorities advise against approaching trapped domesticated animals and recommend contacting 911 or the Gwinnett County non-emergency line for professional assistance.

STORY 2: Chris Carr first to enter 2026 governor's race

Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr announced his candidacy for governor in 2026, becoming the first to enter the race to succeed term-limited Gov. Brian Kemp. Carr, a Republican, emphasized the momentum from recent GOP victories and his commitment to conservative principles, including job creation and community safety. Other potential candidates include Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. Carr highlighted his efforts against human trafficking and gang violence as attorney general and his role in promoting Georgia's business-friendly environment. Carr previously served as chief of staff to U.S. Sen. Johnny Isakson.

STORY 3: Audit confirms Trump carried Georgia

A statewide audit of Georgia's November 5 presidential election confirmed Donald Trump's victory over Kamala Harris, with minor discrepancies that did not affect the outcome. The hand count of randomly selected ballots across all 159 counties showed Trump gaining 11 votes and Harris losing six compared to the machine count. Trump won Georgia by 184,259 votes. Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger praised the election system's accuracy and security. The audit, mandated by 2019 legislation, involved 442 batches of ballots, with 86.1% showing no deviation and all discrepancies within the expected margin of error.
