Former Southaven Alderman Ronnie Hale's prostitution case continued until April
Former Southaven Alderman Ronnie Hale will return to court April 26 on a charge of procuring a prostitute after the DeSoto County Justice Court continued a hearing Thursday.
Anthony Farese, Hale's attorney, said the case was continued because he hasn't received all the prosecution's discovery.
