FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Joseph Pinion lit No. 13 Arkansas’ fireplace and Ricky Council saved it stoked.
After trailing as a lot as 17 factors within the first half, the Razorbacks stormed again Wednesday night time towards No. 20-21 Missouri earlier than a packed home at Bud Walton Area and hit free throws on the finish for a .
That is one that may go into the books for Hog followers.
Pinion solely had 13 factors within the recreation, however it acquired the offense going, then the veteran Council took over, ending with 25 together with free throws down the stretch when the Hogs have been hanging on to complete.
At halftime, there have been some people squirming of their seats however no one was leaving early. They noticed what this group lastly get up.
Hogs coach Eric Musselman had mentioned earlier than the sport, which got here per week after their final one, the Tigers have been capturing group, however apparently the gamers both did not imagine or needed to get a wakeup name.
That got here after halftime, which the Tigers led, 34-27, after the Hogs lastly began taking part in protection, however did not get the offense rolling till the second half.
The Razorbacks lastly acquired a result in full the comeback with 14:23 and did not go backwards.
It is a good factor Pinion acquired on the ground or Arkansas could be severe hassle.
The Razorbacks are trailing Missouri at halftime, 34-27, at halftime and Pinion got here off the bench halfway via and has seven factors in 11 minutes.
To place this one merely, the Hogs are struggling offensively simply to get the ball within the basket.
The Hogs have not led for the reason that recreation was tied early.
If Arkansas cannot get the ball within the basket, that is going to be a protracted recreation.
Missouri got here out gunning and hasn’t let up.
Though neither No. 13 Arkansas or the No. 20-21 Tigers are capable of do a lot pulling away.
Till simply earlier than the primary media timeout at 15:46 to play within the first half as Missouri opened a 10-5 lead.
The Razorbacks have been caught on that quantity for awhile, not scoring for the reason that 17:51 mark on a dunk by Makhi Mitchell, who hasn’t been particularly sharp.
The Tigers are capturing at a 60% tempo from the sphere and there have been rebounding alternatives. The Hogs have labored the ball inside loads and are drawing fouls (4).
Offensively, although, they must decide up the tempo dramatically.
On the second media timeout with 11:47 left, nothing has modified for Arkansas because the Tigers have doubled them up in factors, 16-8.
It’s a full home. The group really began arriving early and tip-off, it is exhausting to see plenty of empty teams of seats.

Missouri is building a state-of-the-art multi-agency state laboratory in Jefferson City. The $151 million project is expected to break ground this month.
Headed by Gov. Mike Parson, the planned campus will be home to several state agencies to provide a singular approach to human, animal, environmental, and criminal testing in Missouri. The new approach will enable the different government agencies to share information, expertise, equipment, supplies, and support services.
This will include the Forensic Crime Laboratory, which will provide forensic evidence testing. It will also provide crime and criminal activity verification for the state and over 600 local law enforcement agencies.
The state Department of Health and Senior Services will be providing investigative and testing services related to public health and disease, according to director Paula Nickelson.
“The opportunity for forensics as well as scientists who concentrate on environment, animals, and humans to come together is very unique,” she said. “We will be one of only three or four in the nation. We will be the only one in the Midwest that has that capacity all under one roof.”
“We are going to build state of the art facilities in this state,” Gov. Parson said. “We’re going to build the best of the best right here in Missouri. We’re going to build a lab that is second to none in the United States.”
The NEW State Health Lab consolidation will help to improve government efficiency without sacrificing the security & integrity of either lab. We’re excited for these new developments that will help improve interagency partnership and local agency collaboration. pic.twitter.com/eB7a6cOd53

Missouri’s Agriculture Director, Chris Chinn, said the future 250,000-square-foot lab is key to the state’s livestock industries.
“Missouri is a powerhouse in livestock production,” she explained. “We’re the number three cow state in the United States, but we’re also top ten when it comes to pigs, goats, poultry, horses, the list just goes on. This laboratory is very crucial to make sure that Missouri’s farmers and ranchers can continue to produce a safe and abundant food supply.”
Missouri Department of Natural Resources Director Dru Buntin said his department provides investigative and laboratory testing for environmental health and disease.
“This new lab will strengthen and expand our services in four key areas – air, water quality monitoring, chemical analysis, and environmental emergency response.” he said.
About $183 million in federal pandemic funds have been designated for the new campus and for work to the existing State Public Health Lab.
The multi-story project is expected to finish in October of 2026.

The Torture-Murder of Othel Moore Jr. and Missouri’s Concentration Camp Prisons
![The Torture-Murder of Othel Moore Jr. and Missouri’s Concentration Camp Prisons](https://kansascitydefender.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Othel-Moore2-1024x576.png)
Four Missouri prison cops were charged Friday with murder, and a fifth with involuntary manslaughter, in the December execution of Othel Moore Jr., a 38-year-old brother at Jefferson City Correctional Center.
The prison cops restrained Othel with a full-body torture contraption, covered him with a hood and a mask, and repeatedly attacked him with chemical weapons. Witnesses reported Moore pleading for his life.
An Eyewitness Describes the Gang-Style Torture Execution, Causing Surge of Terror Throughout MO Prisons
“I never watched anybody die before,” Jordan Seller, a former prisoner at the facility who was an eyewitness to Moore’s murder told CNN.
The nightmarish horror began with what was supposed to be a routine cell search on the maximum-security block. “They come in like a hundred deep, and that’s barely an exaggeration,” Seller recounted. “They try to pull everybody out as fast as they can, search the cells as fast as they can, and get out.”
Seller and his cellmate had already been pulled out and put back in their cell when they saw the commotion around Moore’s cell. “The cell was surrounded by COs,” he said. Moore was begging for his life, saying he had a medical lay-in and needed two pairs of handcuffs to ease the tension on his shoulders.
An attorney for Moore’s family, Andrew Stroth, has said Moore had blood coming out of his ears and nose.
“Immediately he’s jumping, hopping, and you can hear him screaming, ‘Help! I can’t breathe. I can’t breathe, take it off. I can’t breathe. I’m allergic to mace. I need help.’ And then it gets worse and worse,” Seller described. “He’s jumping up and down, shaking. Slowly, his screams are getting weaker and weaker. I believe I watched him die before they even took him out of the wing.”
“That brought on such a fear. The realization that these people can kill me, and there’s nothing I can do about it,” said Seller.
“From our perspective, it’s George Floyd 3.0, in prison,” the civil rights attorney representing the Moore family told KOMU 8 on Friday. “We’re demanding release of all the video.”
What is CERT? The State-Sanctioned Gang That Carried Out the Torture Killing
![](https://kansascitydefender.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/CERT.jpg)
The officers who killed Othel Moore Jr. were part of a so-called “Corrections Emergency Response Team (CERT),” which I will instead refer to as a Prison Terror Squad (PTS). PTS are tactically trained prison cops that operate like a prison-specific SWAT team.
During mass searches, they swarm in overwhelming numbers, often hundreds deep, descending upon unarmed and helpless prisoners in the dead of night. They claim to maintain order; but their true purpose is to instill terror, inflict asymmetrical violence, and assert domination.
CERT’s presence implies violence, creating a culture of constant terror within the prison system.
Prison or Concentration Facility? MO State-Sanctioned Killings Reach Unprecedented Rates
In 2024, the Missouri so-called Department of Corrections saw a sharp increase to a staggering 13 deaths per month, an increase from the last several years’ average of 11 per month.
These executions must be understood as acts of terror intended to strike sustained fear, domination, and control over the general populace of incarcerated comrades. The number of brothers who died while in custody last year was over 150—that’s about five times the number of United States soldiers killed in 2022.
Abolition Now: The Only Just Response
Any institution that regularly allows, enables, and even incentivizes such brutish, horrifying violence against humans—trapping them in cages, herding them, shocking them with shock gloves, spraying them with chemical weapons, asphyxiating and strangling them, depriving them of essential medical needs, infringing on their human rights, keeping them in sweltering heat over 100 degrees in the height of summer, beating and torturing—are not rehabilitation centers; they are concentration facilities.
It is incumbent upon all of us to see the horror of what happened to Othel not as a happenstance or aberration but, as the Missouri Justice Coalition described, “usual and commonplace” for MO prisons to act in this way.
This is not reformable. We must stand in solidarity with our comrades on the inside and demand abolition now!
The department’s own investigation and the firing of ten individuals involved in the incident are mere smokescreens to cover the fact these facilities are far closer to concentration camps than they are rehabilitative institutions.

Omaha metro residents weather flood as Missouri crests
![Omaha metro residents weather flood as Missouri crests](https://gray-wowt-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com/resizer/v2/JWUZV4PNFRGAZFQJK4P5DEOKDU.jpg?auth=311138e6e35be340d83eaf45937930de80b1a7b9143619fafed1cd06ee0c7254&width=1200&height=600&smart=true)
OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) – The National Weather Service said the Missouri River crested at just under 33 feet Saturday morning.
So far, the Pottawattamie County Emergency Management Agency reported no updates in flood-related efforts since then.
They told 6 News their overnight crews encouraged several people to get out of the floodwater near the Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge.
They weren’t alone.
Council Bluffs Police said they received a report of three people paddling upstream in a canoe beneath the pedestrian bridge.
Elsewhere, after this week’s high winds, the Omaha and Lincoln affiliates of the nonprofit group Rapid Response cut down and cleared out tree limbs for residents in the Florence neighborhood.
“They were a true blessing,” Lita Craddick said. “I was so amazed. I was so uplifted and I was overwhelmed almost.”
Craddick said she was faced with having to get estimates and not knowing what homeowner’s insurance would cover.
That was before Rapid Response swooped in.
“Such a blessing,” Craddick said. “I was just totally in shock. I’m like, ‘No way.’”
Rapid Response teams are still helping clean up debris from April’s tornadoes, and they’re planning to help out with flood cleanup after the waters go down.
But it was important for them to help Florence homeowners Saturday.
“We talk to so many people, have so much work to do, so many jobs to do,” said Beth Sorensen, director of the Lincoln affiliate. “So we have to kind of prioritize which ones we’re going to do first. And in this neighborhood, with all these limbs on roofs and things, this was the priority today.”
Rapid Response said it’s badly in need of volunteers, including experienced chainsaw and skid-steer loader operators.
