What made Colonel Gilmer truly remarkable was his forward-thinking approach to women's rights. In 1839, he authored and championed what became known as the "Woman's Law" in Mississippi. This groundbreaking legislation was revolutionary for its time - it allowed married women to own property separately from their husbands. Under this law, a wife's property couldn't be seized for her husband's debts or sold without her consent.

John Gilmer's groundbreaking analysis of the Mississippi Married Women's Property Act of 1839 transformed our understanding of this landmark legislation.

Columbus Housing Authority and the Complicated Money Movement 21:44

2 days ago21:44

21:44

Why are large amounts of money being moved between accounts at the Columbus Housing Authority? Why is the movement of hundreds of thousands of dollars not mentioned in their meeting minutes? Who is managing the money and why are they so cavalier with their funds?

The Case of the Columbus Housing Authority $75,000 Check Made to Cash 19:01

3 days ago19:01

19:01

Why was a check for $75,000 made to Cash by the Executive Director of the Columbus Housing Authority, and it is not reflected in any meeting minutes to the board of commissioners before or after the event? Where did that money go? To the nonprofit Columbus Community Housing Development Organization (CCHDO)? Is anyone paying attention to where money goes at CHA or how it is spent at CCHDO? So many questions arise every turn of the page. https://youtu.be/io1t0qAjaLg…

How to Search: Non-Profit Negative Revenue and MS Secretary of State Business Listings 18:19

4 days ago18:19

18:19

Follow along as I examine the Columbus Community Housing Development - (The Columbus Housing Authority's Non-Profit) Negative Revenue Balances. We will learn how to search the Mississippi Secretary of State Business Listings for Businesses and Charity Listings, Agents, and Members, as well as their compliance with yearly updates. Why is Seasons of Columbus included as a DBA but not Seasons of Success? Where is Seasons of Success EIN and State License to operate? Do they fall under some other business? Again, why is nothing related to the Columbus Housing Authority ever transparent and straightforward? (The video of the how-to is on YouTube).…

How to Search Non-Profit Financial Records - 990 Forms 14:52

5 days ago14:52

14:52

When it comes to nonprofits, there's a lot that you need to know. You can ask for it in a public records request, but it's not really considered a public records request because nonprofits are guided by their nonprofit status. What you can access are their 990s, their tax filings. Here is how you do just that. (Visual version is also available on YouTube. This is just the audio version.)…

Public Records Requests and Searching Land Records 23:04

7 days ago23:04

23:04

Public records are just that: Public! You are entitled to have information from government officials in the form of bank ledgers, meeting minutes, contracts, bids, emails, etc. Public Officials' and Private Individuals' Land and Property Tax Records are all in the public domain. You just have to go to your county courthouse or look at their website online and do some research! (PS: there is a YouTube video that shows the actual screen view if you are a visual person). Here is how:…

Ep 14 CHA Consultant and Money Management Questions 11:30

8 days ago11:30

11:30

Rusty Walker is earning $ 4,295 a month from Columbus HA. He is also receiving fees from Natchez, Hattiesburg, Brookhaven, and McComb Housing Authorities, as well as having some contracts with the City of Gulfport, in addition to his salary as a councilman for the city. I can’t imagine money should be an issue, as he appears to be a successful businessman. So why are his property taxes always delinquent? He is a Capital Funds Manager for Housing Authorities all over the state with significant budgets funded by HUD. He is an elected official responsible for millions of dollars for the City of Gulfport. Do they know he forgets to pay his property taxes? Did his opponent know he has a questionable track record where money is concerned? Is this the same man who was borrowing and then lending a million-plus dollars not even 10 years ago? Why does everything around Councilman Walker generate so many questions?…

Episode 13 Columbus Housing Authority and Futurespec 8:35

9 days ago8:35

8:35

Gulfport's City Council President and Futurespec's Rusty Walker have been playing a shell game with money and land for some time in Gulfport while consulting for various housing authorities in his spare time. Why? According to HUD and area directors, there is absolutely no need for companies like Future Spec to do the day-to-day coding and grant fund management. That they are hired to do. The directors have so many opportunities to learn both online and in person, and HUD and various state-level agencies provide continuing credits, ongoing training, and support to those executive directors. Why are we mixed up with this guy and paying him to do something our Executive Director SHOULD be doing?…

Episode 12 Columbus Housing Authority: CHA and CCHDO Financial Red Flags 16:11

14 days ago16:11

16:11

Unravel the financial irregularities in this community housing organization. Let's take a deep dive into the financial transparency, or lack thereof, and the organizational accountability that is missing at the Columbus Housing Authority. From single and rubber-stamped signatures to initialed checks with no invoice or purchase order numbers...the financial mess at both the Non-profit CCHDO and the CHA is appalling.…

Episode 11 Columbus Housing Authority and The Rubber Stamp Board 13:14

15 days ago13:14

13:14

This comprehensive investigative report exposes deep-seated governance challenges within the Columbus Housing Authority (CHA), revealing a complex network of potential systemic failures that compromise organizational integrity, financial accountability, and public trust. We're uncovering a peculiar board member who appears to be a long-standing fixture in the organization. Appointed under a previous administration, Greta Gardner seems to occupy a unique position - signing critical documents for both the Housing Authority and a related non-profit, yet remaining mysteriously inaccessible. What does Gulfport City Councilman Rusty Walker have to do with moving around the money in the CHA Draw? What is CFP? What is a JV? Why is Sheila Hosli with a non-business email and NOT an employee of the CHA “revising” the draw? Something is truly amiss here!…

Ep. 9 Columbus Housing Authority and the Case of the Bumbling Bids 15:47

23 days ago15:47

15:47

The housing authority uses federal grants or gifts to help pay the housing cost of its customers. Federal money is given to the housing authority to cover all the normal costs of maintaining a place to live. As a result, the housing authority must comply with state and federal bidding rules on purchasing. The laws are really clear, and they're easy to comply with if an agency chooses to follow them. Is the Columbus Housing Authority following federal and state bid law guidelines? I. Yes, no one knows right now, since the bidding documents have not been produced, we are asking for them, but the rules are pretty clear.…

What started with looking into a truck that CHA purchased and got scammed on has made me look more carefully at how they conduct their business. It makes me question a lot of things they do and makes me wonder who else is scamming them. Follow along as I explore their ledgers.

Columbus Housing Authority and Their Bed Bug Problem 11:06

27 days ago11:06

11:06

It would appear that most of the service providers to the Columbus Housing Authority are from out of town, adding to the cost of their services. Was the Cook Pest Control account ever put out for bid? Is it rebid each year? Why does the Columbus Housing Authority have a huge bedbug problem that shows up each month in one and only one unit at varying amounts for treatment?…
