Lindsey Kay Floyd, of Edna, was arrested after a grand jury handed down an indictment for Theft of Property $2,500-$30,000, a third degree felony.

According to the indictment, Floyd is charged with unlawfully appropriating “by acquiring or otherwise exercising control over, property, namely United States currency or it’s functional equivalent, of the aggregate value of $2,500 or more, but less than $30,000 from the Edna Athletic Booster Club.”

The indictment states that Floyd is charged with a “continuing course of conduct” between July 21, 2023 and April 7, 2025.

In September, the Edna Police Department said in a Facebook post that the District Attorney’s Office was investigating a possible “misappropriation of funds” related to a local booster club, but stated they couldn’t share any more information at the time to preserve the integrity of the investigation.

Floyd was booked on May 1 and released the same day on a $25,000 bond.

Currently, he’s been the principal at Hallettsville High School for several years. He’s at the beginning of the 21-day waiting period, and will start on Tuesday, May 26.

Briscoe, 34, was born and raised in Needville, not to mention he graduated from there as well.

His parents still reside there, and his mother has been with NISD education for nearly 40 years.

“I grew up blue and white, and I get to wear blue and white again,” he said. “My family does some ranching so we get to be Cowboys, literally and figuratively. I’m excited to see what Edna has in store for me.”

Briscoe’s background in education stemmed from his mother, and two of her sisters were also teachers. His mother rose in the education field from an elementary school teacher, principal, and now the assistant superintendent at Needville.

A graduate of Texas Lutheran University, Briscoe also played on TLU’s baseball team.

His first job was at Hallettsville, teaching history and coaching baseball. He then returned to Needville for nearly two years as their head baseball coach, and then went back to Hallettsville as their Offensive Coordinator and head baseball coach. After that, he too rose in the ranks to become the assistant principal and then head principal at Hallettsville.

He spoke of the inspiration behind his growth.

“Seeing my mom as an administrator had a lot to do with it, but once I got into coaching, I loved watching kids succeed. I received my masters at a young age, but as I moved up in administration, I saw I affected more people,” Briscoe said. “Then as AP I affected a certain group, as principal I affected a whole school, and now I get to affect an entire district, interacting with adults and children.

“So people might say that I’m young—which I am—but I’ve had a lot of experience most people my age haven’t received in order to put me in this position. I have school pride and bought into the system, and just watching the kids succeed is second to none.”

His style of teaching, coaching and leadership is to listen first, and respond with honest, trustworthy transparency. He believes directness to be a lost art, and strives to achieve it daily. He said when one is honest and direct, it’s likely to be reciprocated.

Last week Briscoe did the rounds at the five campuses in the district and was able to meet leadership, some teachers, custodians and maintenance people.

“It was great because I like meeting people face-to-face, with handshakes; I would rather not send an email if I don’t have to, and I want to be approachable,” he said. “Everyone was great and had a great attitude, especially for the last day in April in a school system.”

Briscoe plans on introducing himself on social media soon, and he plans to follow in Interim Superintendent Billy Boyd’s footsteps, by getting on Facebook live once a month, sharing weekly district happenings, and every board meeting will be updated on Facebook.

He is married to his wife of eight years, Sarah, who was born and raised in Inez, and attended St. Joseph High School in Victoria. They have two boys, Mason V, who is five, and Ty, who is three.

“My door is always open and I want to be as available as possible. I don’t like being in an office, so I’m going to be around a lot of places in the different campuses,” he said. “It’s all about the kids and we’re going to make sure that we make decisions which will improve their future.

“Never in my wildest imaginations did I think I would be a superintendent at 34, but I’m here, looking forward to it and I’m excited, this is a cool moment for me and my family. I love small towns, I grew up in one, and love that Edna is a small town. I don’t see myself ever going to a big town, I want to raise my family in a small town,” he concluded.

Message, email, or call to RSVP or ask questions. Every Monday from 4 - 5 p.m. at 901 S. Wells.

From dirt roads to downtown storefronts, family homes to community landmarks, each photo is a puzzle piece in Edna’s evolving portrait. The City of Edna aims to collect and showcase these images as part of the upcoming community event to highlight how Edna has grown, changed, and thrived across generations.

“We know the heart of Edna lives in the memories of its people,” said Lance Smiga, Edna Mayor. “These photographs will help us preserve those memories and share them with visitors and younger residents who may not have seen just how far our city has come.”

Community members are encouraged to submit photos of:

• Historic buildings, streets, and neighborhoods • Community events and gatherings

• Local businesses, schools, and churches

• Everyday life in Edna throughout the decades All hand-delivered photos will be carefully handled, digitally preserved, and returned to their owners immediately.

Submission Details: Photos may be submitted by dropping them off at City Hall or emailing scanned copies to City Hall at srobinson@cityofedna.com. All submissions should include your name, contact information, and any known details about the photo, such as approximate date, location, and people featured.

This initiative is more than a history project, it’s a community time capsule in motion, capturing the spirit of Edna through the lenses of those who have lived it.

For more information, please contact City Hall at 361-782-3122.

Let’s bring Edna’s story to life—one photograph at a time.

How appropriate are these words to all those seniors from the three county ISDs who have received Jackson County Retired School Personnel scholarships over the years! Now, a few of JCRSP scholarship recipients will be on hand on May 18th to discuss how those funds impacted their lives. Being able to meet some of those former educators who decided a select group of students needed to be awarded financial help to pursue a college degree should prove to be rewarding for both parties.

JCRSP members, join the group at the First United Methodist Church Fellowship Hall, 216 West Main in Edna at 11:45 a.m. to hear from these past scholarship winners and enjoy the catered lunch. Additionally, a few rousing games of Bingo will jump start the unlimited fun which will be long remembered during the summer hiatus. RSVP your attendance to Kathy Johnson at 361781-4004 by May 14, 2026.

Holly Myers will offer the meal’s invocation, and David Johnson will lead the pledges. Chairing the hostess roles will be Vera Rodriguez and Dorothy Johnson. Contributing hosts include the following: Bill Bryan, Linda Heller, Elsie Myers, Michelle Orsak, Judy Pustka, Linda and Bill Reaves, Rose Volkmer, Linda Wells, Reba and Sam Roberson.

Remember the word Bingo can be “used when someone gets something exactly right or when something happens just as expected.” -- such as former school personnel encouraging students to better themselves through education. “BINGO!”

That may sound impressive.

And it is.

We are proud of him. But it is also a tiny bit disappointing for him. The two students who finished ahead of him are his friends. He is happy for them, but watching friends reach the goal he had set for himself is still a little hard.

This fall, God willing, my son will attend Texas A&M University in College Station to study computer engineering. Again, quite impressive.

His friends will be attending MIT and Harvard.

Comparison has a way of taking something good and making it feel less good. It turns blessings into scorecards.

That is why one little command in Romans chapter twelve is much harder than it sounds. The Apostle Paul encourages us as Christians to “rejoice with those who rejoice” and “mourn with those who mourn” (Romans 12:15). Years ago, a seminary professor read that verse to my class and asked, “Which of those is easier to do?”

Our initial response was to say, “Rejoice with those who rejoice.”

But is that true? As Christians, we actually do quite well at mourning with those who mourn. When tragedy strikes, when somebody dies, when our neighbors are hurting, we often step up and step in to help. We offer our condolences and prayers. We bring them food and open our homes to them.

We mourn with those who mourn.

It’s harder to rejoice with those who rejoice. Your coworker gets the promotion. Your friend’s child gets into the dream school. Your neighbor buys the house you wish you could afford. Someone else receives the recognition you quietly hoped would come to you.

Maybe we smile and grit our teeth and congratulate them, but deep down, we struggle to be happy for them. We think, “Why them and not me?”

Comparison is the thief of joy.

The secret to truly rejoicing with those who rejoice is to recognize God’s amazing grace in your own life. Look at what God has already given you. He has given you daily bread, family and friends, gifts and opportunities. More than that, he has given you his Son. In Jesus, he has forgiven your sins, called you his child, and promised you heaven.

When we recognize and appreciate all the good things God gives us in his grace, we can be happy when God gives good things to others. God blesses each of us differently, but he blesses all of us richly.

The fact that God has blessed someone else doesn’t mean that God hasn’t blessed you.

The fact that they succeed doesn’t mean that you are a failure.

One of the hardest things God asks us to do as Christians is to rejoice with those who rejoice. But by God’s grace, we can. We can rejoice because his blessings for others do not cancel his blessings for us.

Other people’s success is not your failure.

On April 22, one crew member was killed and two more injured while working on a pipeline south of Edna off of FM 1822. One person was declared dead at the scene, and two were taken to hospitals for treatment.

The Ammons Law Firm said in a press release that their client Orlando Cantu sustained serious injuries while working on the pipeline, which they claim could have been prevented and were the result of negligence on the part of Kinder Morgan.

“According to the petition, Cantu was injured while performing work on a Kinder Morgan pipeline in Jackson County,” the statement read. “The lawsuit alleges that an unreasonably dangerous condition existed on the premises, including but not limited to the pipeline, and posed an unreasonable risk of harm.”

“The petition further alleges that Kinder Morgan knew, or in the exercise of reasonable care should have known, of the unreasonably dangerous condition and failed to exercise ordinary care to reduce or eliminate the risk to Cantu.

“The lawsuit also alleges that Kinder Morgan’s acts and omissions constituted gross negligence because they involved an extreme degree of risk and were undertaken with actual, subjective awareness of the risk, but with conscious indifference to the rights, safety and welfare of others, including Cantu.”

The suit seeks damages for medical expenses, disfigurement, loss of wages, loss of earning capacity, physical pain, mental distress and anguish, as well as court costs and exemplary damages.

Cantu also filed to have the scene preserved until an inspection could be performed, and was granted a Temporary Restraining Order, to which Kinder Morgan agreed, preventing cleanup or alteration of the site and a 100 foot radius.

“Pipeline operators have a responsibility to protect workers from explosive hazards before work begins, not after a catastrophic failure occurs,” said Lead attorney Rob Ammons said. “This lawsuit seeks accountability for Mr. Cantu and answers about how this explosion happened and why it was not prevented.”

Orlando Cantu v. Kinder Morgan, Inc., Kinder Morgan Texas Pipeline LLC, and Kinder Morgan Tejas Pipeline LLC is being heard in the in the Harris County’s 164th Judicial District Cause No. 202627731.

Ganado couldn’t be much better as they haven’t allowed a run through four playoff games. In fact, district foe Shiner scored two runs on the Maidens on April 7 and those are the only two runs Ganado has allowed in their last 11 games.

At the plate, the Maidens continued their dominance. Paisley Hajovsky and Raelynn Pena homered as the Maidens picked up 10 hits in the run-rule shortened game.

Ganado (28-2-1) and Danbury (25-6-1) will face off in the Regional Semi-Final round.

The Industrial Cobras playoff series started on a great note as Industrial survived a scare by Jourdanton, holding on for a 6-5 win. However, Jourdanton took the next two games, 5-2, and 2-1 and left as the series winners.

In game one, Jourdanton loaded the bases in their final at-bat, but the Cobras were able to hang on for the win. The rally Jourdanton put on showed a glimpse of how close the rest of the series would be.

In game two, Jourdanton put up a run and Industrial tied it up in the third. Jourdanton had a 5-1 lead by the sixth and the Cobras were only able to add one run. Ava Collins and Kayla Osburn picked up a triple in the game, the two Cobra extra base hits in the game.

Game three was a tense pitcher’s duel throughout. Jourdanton put up both of their runs in the fourth inning. The Cobras put up their lone run in the fifth. Clancy Kolle led the way in game three with a triple and a double. Kaylee Honc also picked up a triple in the game.

In the circle, Collins pitched all twenty innings, and picked up 23 strikeouts.

Area Playoffs Game one: Industrial 6 - Jourdanton 5 Clancy Kolle 2 hits; Aleisa Popp 1 hit; Kaylee Honc 1 hit, 1 RBI; Kayla Osburn 1 hit; Kinley Mauldin 1 hit; Ava Collins 7 innings, 7 hits, 5 earned runs, 7 strikeouts.

Game two: Jourdanton 5 - Industrial 2 Claire Karl 2 hits; Osburn 2 hits, triple; Collins 1 triple, 7 innings, 8 hits, 5 earned runs, 11 strikeouts; Honc 1 hit, 1 RBI; Kolle 1 RBI.

Game three: Industrial 1 - Jourdanton 2 Kolle 1 triple, 1 double, 1 RBI; Ella Balensiefen 1 hit; Collins 1 hit, 6 innings, 6 hits, 2 earned runs, 5 strikeouts; Honc 1 hit; A Smith 1 hit; Mauldin 1 hit;

Gando 16 - Three Rivers 0 (5 innings) Laci Holt 3 hits, 3 RBI’s, 2 steals; Paisley Hajovsky homerun, double, 4 RBI; Hallie Bures 2 hits, triple, 1 RBI; Raelynn Pena 1 hit, 1 RBI; Jordyn Bundick 1 double, 1 RBI, 2 steals; Rhylee Green 1 hit; Kyla Stancik 1 RBI, 1 steal; Michaela Estrada 1 RBI; Raelynn Peters 1 steal; Saylor Bures 5 innings, 0 hits, 11 strikeouts.

On the girls side Cowgirl Margaret Sklar captured second in the

800 meter run to advance to state. Joining her at state is the Cowgirls
