In a criminal case, they call it “reasonable doubt” and you have to get beyond it. In civil matters, it’s called “a preponderance of the evidence” and you have to have a whole mess of it.

Hi Y’all, The Lanark Village Association, Inc. was well-attended. Highlight discussions were the sign that the association is looking forward to putting up at the entrance of Heffernan Drive off of Highway 98.

They had all just been small-town boys growing up in Carrabelle, born either just before or not long after World War II, and when it came time to answer their nation’s call, fresh out of high school, they did so. Their fight was a far less popular war than the one of their fathers, and…

With 168 registrants for the annual 5K race, held Saturday morning, March 3, 145 runners crossed the finish line. “That’s a record number for any 5K I’ve organized,” said Shelley…

Both he and State Sen. Corey Simon (R-Tallahassee) had agreed to…

The anger was palpable Feb. 28, in a large room at the Apalachicola National Estuarine Research Reserve, as about 20 members of the Seafood…
A 24-year-old Panama City man, on trial last week for sexual battery offenses against two youth that could have put him behind bars for life, has been acquitted of all charges. The four-man, two woman took just under two hours Friday morning to find Brandon Austin James not guilty of two counts of sexual battery…
Carrabelle Deputy Chief Robby Hogan was sworn in this afternoon as the city’s new police chief, following a unanimous vote by the city commission. Following a motion by Mayor Brenda La Paz, and seconded by Tony Millender, the commission voted 4-0 to approve Hogan’s hire. Sebrina Brown, who was absent from the special meeting, had…
The action in the center of St. George Island was about as laid back as it comes over the course of four decades since the annual St. George Island Charity Chili Cook-off first started. Gone were the raucous and ribald Ms. Chili Pepper and Mr. Hot Sauce competitions, or the hubbub of a live auction…
The Lady Seahawks softball team had as busy a stretch as a team can have, playing six games in less than a week. “And we got better in every aspect of the game,” said Coach Scott Collins. On Monday, Feb. 27, the team fell 5-2 to Taylor County in Perry, and then the next night,…
