Rob Rattenbury is retired and lives in Whanganui. He recently published a book about his years with the police.

Mississippi DJ Events officially opened in February in Columbus.
Although the DJ company is new to Columbus, owner Charles Akujobi is no stranger to Mississippi. He first opened the company in Oxford in 2015, before the airman was reassigned to Texas. Just recently, he was reassigned again to Columbus Air Force Base and said simply: he’s ready to stay.
“I’ve been stationed in Mississippi three times,” Akujobi said. “The state is very near and dear to my heart. I love the atmosphere, the southern hospitality, the food, the sports, just everything. I just wanted to call it home. … We are here to stay. We’re committed to Mississippi and we’re here for the long-haul.”
