The city of Ridgeland issued the following statement.
The City of Ridgeland was at the center of some attention over the weekend following the online misinformation regarding the appointment of a Municipal Court Judge.

Kingfish note: The social media world in Mississippi when this appeared on Facebook last week.
As it turns out, Benoit's Wonder Woman hired Ms. Ali as a municipal court judge. The immigration attorney posted on Facebook
Everyone calm down.

There used to be a time in the US where we celebrated a child of immigrant parents working hard and making it to the top of their profession.
Used to be a time when children who where raised by immigrant parents were taught to love America and be grateful for the gifts it offered.
Clickbait
The entire population of Benoit is celebrating —all 365 of them! Yay!
I’m celebrating that Aasma has to drive to Benoit and hear their stupid cases. Perfect
benoit ms is a long way from rankin county. she gonna spend more on gasoline than the position pays.
Democrats don't know how to uphold the constitution
Yeah but the the immigrant didn't follow a religion that makes it ok to have sex with underage girls. Just saying
The way some blowhards have handled this, looking for cheap political points, has made me support Ali here.
I don't understand all the hubbub, person seems qualified.
This is how Shariah starts.
So ... Benoit is now under potential Sharia Law ?
I doubt the locals will embrace this, but it should be funny to watch what happens.
Benoit - Not much going on there these days. I'm very surprised it has municipal court. The vast majority of folks that pass through Benoit do so on their way to Lake Whittington or one of the high dollar hunting clubs behind the levee.
It should probably not shock anyone that Ridgeland is still using the same people they used in 2001.
Benoit who?
Like true glory and worship @2:53... Oh! how can I speak against thee, The provider , the holder of light and Files
Was a time when immigrant parents rushed to quickly assimilate. My great grandparents on one side of the family insisted when they arrived on our shores in the years between the great world wars that speaking their native non-English language stopped with them. And it did.
I've seen her work. She is exceedingly conscientious and very good at what she does - an extremely fine representative of the Bar. I can't say that about of lot of my fellow attorneys.
There was a time in the US, when one would write either:
"...child of immigrant parents working hard, and making it to the top of his or her profession."
or
"...children of immigrant parents working hard, and making it to the top of their professions."
By the way: it's "time WHEN", not "time WHERE".
I went to school in an all-minority rural Mississippi slum. But I would not have made it through Tenth Grade English, without knowing such basics.
Oh, and as for "we" celebrating immigrant gatecrashers, the "we" generally consisted of those implementing the Socialist's 'Long March through the Institutions'.
I have heard many people that I have great respect for speak highly of her.
I have no personal dealings with her, so I will reserve judgment and wish her good luck at her job for now.
2:53 - Amen!
