Foul
Former University of Virginia wide receiver Jahmal Edrine was indicted on rape and abduction charges February 2, and brought into custody February 5. According to Albemarle County Police, Edrine’s arrest comes after months of investigation into an August 24, 2025, incident.
Edrine, who is not currently enrolled at UVA, appeared in Albemarle County Circuit Court on February 11. At press time, the outcome of that hearing and the date of his next court appearance had not been announced. The 22-year-old remains in Albemarle-Charlottesville Regional Jail without bond.
Snowfall
The snow and ice is finally starting to melt, but some are still feeling their impacts.
“We’ve had approximately 200 cases in the emergency department related to the most recent winter storm,” says Eric Swensen, UVA Health public information officer, noting a trauma consult was needed in 80 cases.
“Injuries ranged from head trauma while sledding to broken bones from slip-and-fall incidents to car accidents and in a few instances, pedestrians hit by cars after stepping on the road to avoid icy sidewalks,” Swensen says. “About 75 cases involved sledding accidents.”
Terms and conditions
In the first executive directive of her term, Gov. Abigail Spanberger ended all 287(g) agreements between state agencies and Immigration and Customs Enforcement on February 4. “Virginians deserve to have their state and local law enforcement resources devoted to the safety and security of their communities, not federal civil immigration enforcement,” reads an excerpt from the directive.
