Thinking and memory changes, also known as cognitive changes, may become more noticeable as Parkinson's disease (PD) progresses. If these symptoms begin to interfere with everyday tasks, it may be a sign of dementia. Understanding the signs of dementia in Parkinson's, along with its different names and variations, is essential for tailoring treatment options to your specific symptoms. The early signs of dementia may be hard to notice at first. Often, it is the care partner or family member who witnesses the gradual decline in thinking abilities. Care partners play a crucial role in providing the best quality of life and support for their loved ones with Parkinson's. In this episode, Jori Fleisher, MD, MSCE and Claire Pensyl talk about Parkinson's dementia. Dr. Fleisher is a movement disorders neurologist and co-director of the Parkinson's Foundation Center of Excellence at Rush University in Chicago, where her research focuses on designing and implementing novel models of care and support for people living with neurodegenerative disorders. She is the Principal Investigator of the PERSEVERE trial, an entirely virtual, national trial to educate and empower care partners whose loved ones have Parkinson's or Lewy Body Dementia (LBD). Claire, on the other hand, was the care partner for her husband, Ira, who had PD and LBD. She shares her experience witnessing Ira's cognitive challenges as they became more apparent and describes how she became motivated to learn more about the signs of dementia as the disease progressed.

Allison Applebaum stood by her dad Stanley as his caregiving partner, respecting his wishes and maintaining his quality of life through the very end of his life. Allison was previously the Founding Director of the Caregivers Clinic at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, the first program of its kind in the United States to provide comprehensive psychosocial care to family members and friends of patients who are in the caregiving role. Her father Stanley, a talented and prolific composer and musician, worked with many great artists for the 50's and 60's, including Neil Sedaka, Ben E. King, and Connie Francis. Allison took a lead role as her dad's caregiver after the death of her mother, helping him deal with Lewy Body Disease (Lewy Body Dementia). After her mother died, Allison and Stan went forward, dealing with intense and traumatic grief. Allison's caregiving story is a beautiful tribute to her dad, and there are many caregivers across the U.S. doing the same job for someone they care about. LBD carries an unusual set of caregiving challenges. Stan defined quality of life as the ability to be creative, grow, and continue to compose his music. As a caregiver, Allison respected his wishes and ensured he lived fully until his death at 96. Some highlights from Allison's unique caregiving story include: Her dad retained his creativity and this contributed greatly to his quality of life Stan never had a DNR (Do Not Rescucitate) document, and Allison respected that wish through his death Intermittent hallucinations were part of his disease, a great source of pain for both Stan and his daughter. Allison considered them partners in caregiving, and worked to build a caregiving village customized to her dad's needs.

Wondering what the difference is between Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinson's Disease?
Ladies and gentlemen, with honesty, tenderness and, yes, sometimes humor, the film Facing the Wind invites viewers into the lives of people with Lewy body dementia and their caregivers…real people in real time. FACING THE WIND, a sixty-minute documentary film, reveals how a mutual support community can be an antidote to despair, letting people know they are not alone. You will follow their journey, laughing and crying with them, while taking an unflinching look at dementia care with its overwhelming and isolating aspects. The struggle is real, but so is the love. Ladies and gentlemen, Lewy body dementia is not a rare disease. It affects more than 1.4 million people in America. It is the second most common form of dementia, but it still being misdiagnosed. Alzheimer's disease is the gradual decline of memory as Lewy body dementia is the roller coaster ride with ups and downs. One moment the patient can be fully present and lucid and the next be completely lost or deal with hallucinations from mild to severe. There is no cure, but this very powerful film documentary is not for those suffering with Lewy body dementia, but for the people who care for them. Many spouses and family members are thrust into being a caregiver and navigating the vast ocean of the unknown. FACING THE WIND is a starting place for caregivers and to know that it's ok to not be ok. Head over to LewyBodyResourceCenter.org for more information. If your loved one was diagnosed with Lewy body dementia, you are not alone and there are resources right now that can help you. Mary Lou Falcone, author of the book, “I Didn't See It Coming: Scenes of Love, Loss and Lewy Body Dementia”. Mary Lou Falcone, author of I DIDN'T SEE IT COMING: Scenes of Love, Loss, and Lewy Body Dementia, is internationally known as a classical music publicist/strategist who for 50 years has helped guide the careers of celebrated artists – Van Cliburn, Gustavo Dudamel, Renée Fleming, Sir Georg Solti, James Taylor – and advised many institutions including Carnegie Hall, Chicago Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Philadelphia Orchestra, New York Philharmonic, Vienna Philharmonic. Combining communication skills with her background as a performer and educator, she now adds another layer: advocate for Lewy body dementia (LBD) awareness. Her late husband, the illustrator/painter Nicky Zann who died from LBD in 2020, was the catalyst for her book. She is also an Executive Producer of a new documentary film about LBD entitled Facing the Wind, a love story about people with Lewy body dementia, the spouses who care for them, and the remarkable community where they find sustenance and support. #lewybodydementia #lewybody #dementia #alzheimersdisease #alzheimers #parkinsonsdisease #brainhealth #medicine #filmdocumentary #documentary #health #wellness #caregiving #caregivers

My guest today is the founder and executive director of the Lewy body Resource Center. Norma's knowledge and experience with Lewy body dementia began with the personal care of her mother, Lillian, who had LBD for many years. Norma has been facilitating the only New York Metro area LBD caregivers support groups since 2008. She also leads a national group for people living with LBD which has been lauded. She served on the board of directors of the Lewy Body Dementia Association for three years before launching the LBD Resource Center in 2016 to provide much needed support and resources on more personal and connective levels. Norma worked as executive assistant to the CFO at The New York Times Company for over 20 years. While there, she served as chairperson of the work/life committee of The New York Times' women's affinity group and initiated and ran their eldercare support group. Her expertise working with the top executives at The Times, as well as her managerial experience as executive director and a co-founder of What BETTER Looks Like, a nonprofit organization which partners with communities to help individuals imagine, articulate, and create visions for a better world, has prepared her to lead the LBD Resource Center which is very dear to her heart. Ladies and gentlemen, Lewy body dementia (LBD) is the second most common form of progressive dementia, affecting more than 1.4 million Americans. Because LBD comes with a host of physical, cognitive and behavioral symptoms, it often mimics Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease or a psychiatric disorder. As a result, it is widely misdiagnosed. Even as diagnoses increase, resources for people with LBD and their families still remain extremely limited. Citing this lack of resources and assistance, the Lewy Body Dementia Resource Center was founded to provide much needed services and support for people with LBD and their loved ones.

In this week's episode we'll discuss a novel tripartite fusion drives treatment resistance in acute promyelocytic leukemia. In some patients with atypical APL, these novel retinoic acid receptor gene fusions result in truncation of the ligand binding domain of the retinoic acid receptor protein, resulting in non-responsiveness to treatment with all-trans retinoic acid. After that: managing immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia or iTTP without therapeutic plasma exchange, or TPE. Finally, hope for motherhood after allogeneic HCT.Featured Articles: Critical role of tripartite fusion and LBD truncation in certain RARA- and all RARG-related atypical APLManagement of immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura without therapeutic plasma exchangeHope for motherhood: pregnancy after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (a national multicenter study)

Michelle's goal is to share her experiences to guide and support others on this difficult journey. She wants to be an advocate for both patients and caregivers, bringing some ease and calm to the process. Through her work, she hopes to turn her own painful experiences into something positive, helping others navigate their way with empathy and understanding.

Introduction: In this episode, we delve into the profound journey of Mary Lou, a dedicated caregiver to her husband, the renowned artist and rocker, Nicholas ‘Nicky' Zann. Mary Lou candidly shares their story of navigating life with Lewy body dementia, shedding light on the challenges, resilience, and the importance of understanding and support. Key Points Covered: Understanding Lewy Body Dementia (LBD): Mary Lou describes how LBD differs from Alzheimer's, with fluctuating symptoms affecting memory and behavior. It's a condition affecting 1.4 million Americans and 11 million globally, though it remains relatively less known. The Caregiver's Perspective: Mary Lou emphasizes the need to meet the person with dementia where they are, suspending personal needs to prioritize theirs. Caregiving is described as improvisation, requiring adaptability and a willingness to accept failures. Lessons in Forgiveness and Vulnerability: She reflects on her book, “I Didn't See it Coming, Scenes of Love, Loss and Lewy Body Dementia,” as a journey of reconciliation with herself as a caregiver. Forgiveness and vulnerability are central themes, offering insights into the complexities of caregiving. Nicky's Messages and Final Moments: Mary Lou shares Nicky's enduring messages and the profound experience of understanding his needs in his final moments. She highlights the transformative potential of grief, turning it into catharsis. Raising Awareness and Encouraging Support: Mary Lou advocates for greater awareness of Lewy body dementia, urging celebrities and public figures to help shine a light on this condition. She underscores the importance of creating supportive communities for family caregivers. Notable Quotes from Mary Lou: “You have to join the person where they are, you can't expect them to come to you in their former state. It's just not possible.” “Suspend what you need and give them what they need.” “Grief doesn't have to be your nemesis, it can be your catharsis.” Closing Thoughts: Mary Lou concludes by emphasizing the moments of light and hope amidst the challenges of caregiving. Her story serves as an inspiration and a call to action for increased understanding and support for those affected by Lewy body dementia. ABOUT THE AUTHOR & ILLUSTRATOR Mary Lou Falcone is internationally known as a classical music publicist/strategist who for 50 years has helped guide the careers of celebrated artists – Van Cliburn, Gustavo Dudamel, Renée Fleming, Sir Georg Solti, James Taylor – and advised many institutions including Carnegie Hall, Chicago Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Philadelphia Orchestra, New York Philharmonic, and Vienna Philharmonic. Combining communication skills with her background as a performer and educator, she now adds another layer: advocate for Lewy body dementia (LBD) awareness. Her late husband, the illustrator Nicky Zann, who died from LBD in 2020, was the catalyst for this, her first book. Nicholas ‘Nicky' Zann, the inspiration for this book, was a popular 1950s rock 'n' roll musician who became a world-renowned cartoonist, illustrator, and painter. His work hangs in the permanent collection of London's Victoria and Albert Museum, and the illustrations featured throughout this book come from his bestselling fortune-telling card game, The Answer Deck.

“Once diagnosed with Lewy body dementia, on average, individuals tend to live 5 to 8 years” —Melissa Batchelor, PhD, RN, FNP, FGSA, FAAN Lewy body dementia (LBD) is often misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or overlooked, yet it affects millions worldwide. Join me as I explain one of the complicated types of dementia. In this week's episode, we'll explore Lewy body dementia, understand its symptoms, causes, stages, and how it can be treated. WHAT IS LEWY BODY DEMENTIA? Lewy Body Dementia (LBD) is characterized by abnormal protein deposits in the brain, leading to chemical changes and the death of brain cells. This results in various challenges with movement, balance, thinking, behavior, and mood. One key feature of LBD is the fluctuation in cognitive ability, making it challenging to determine the disease's stage. DO YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS OF LEWY BODY DEMENTIA? Symptoms of Lewy body dementia include memory problems, confusion, strange body movements, sleep disorders, hallucinations, and dizziness. People with LBD may experience auditory or vivid visual hallucinations, which can be distressing or gentle, depending on the image they are seeing. This type of dementia also affects the body's automatic functions, causing issues like changes in blood pressure, temperature sensitivity, and loss of smell. WHAT CAUSES LEWY BODY DEMENTIA? While the cause of Lewy body dementia remains unknown, it involves abnormal clumping of a protein called alpha-synuclein in areas of the brain responsible for thinking and movement. These clumps, known as Lewy bodies, interfere with the production of neurotransmitters, resulting in issues with muscle movement, memory, and thinking abilities. CHALLENGES IN DIAGNOSING LEWY BODY DEMENTIA Diagnosing Lewy body dementia can be tricky. Its symptoms can be similar to those of Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease. Typically, a team of specialists, including primary care providers, neurologists, and psychiatrists, is needed for a thorough evaluation. Diagnostic tests may include cognitive assessments, brain scans, blood tests, and sleep studies. HOW DOES IT PROGRESS? In the early stages of Lewy body dementia, memory remains intact, but confusion and mild cognitive changes may appear. Attention span can vary and hallucinations and REM Sleep Behavior Disorder can occur. As Lewy body dementia progresses, cognitive decline worsens, attention span decreases, and confusion increases. Movement problems develop, leading to falls and difficulty with tasks like bathing and dressing. Communication becomes harder, swallowing may be challenging, and paranoia or delusions may worsen. In the late stages, muscles become very stiff and sensitive to touch. People need help with most daily tasks like eating and bathing. Speech becomes very difficult, often turning into a whisper or stopping completely. WHAT TREATMENTS ARE AVAILABLE? While there is no cure for LBD yet, there are treatments that manage symptoms and improve quality of life. Medications like cholinesterase inhibitors may help maintain cognitive function.

Lecture par l'autrice & rencontre animée par Sylvie Tanette Fauvel a perdu un œil suite à un tir de LBD. Elle accepte de garder la chienne du père d'une de ses amies dans une maison isolée à la campagne. Hannah n'est pas un chien comme les autres, c'est le clone d'une première Hannah, qui trône empaillée au milieu du salon. Elle suscite les peurs et les reproches muets du village, à mesure qu'on découvre au matin des animaux massacrés, et qu'elle-même rentre parfois ensanglantée. Cette situation est le point de départ d'un récit de traque et de cauchemar délicatement progressif. Au fil d'une pseudo-enquête hallucinée, le roman explore les notions de domination, d'animalité et de violence. À travers la proximité, voire l'amalgame entre animaux et humains, Aliène questionne la nature de ce qui est caché, la vie animale, et surtout l'instinct de peur. Tel est le véritable fil du récit, rarement traité avec autant de nuance et de force. « Ainsi il existe encore des lieux sur ce continent et dans ce pays qui est malencontreusement le mien, dans la mesure où cent fois préférable aurait été de naître apatride ou de ne pas naître du tout, il existe encore des lieux qui ressemblent à l'image idéale que l'on s'en fait. » Phœbe Hadjimarkos Clarke, Aliène.

The challenges caused by dementia can affect your ability to function in your daily life. —Melissa Batchelor, PhD, RN, FNP, FGSA, FAAN What are the different types of dementia and how to differentiate them? Dementia is a group of symptoms that affect memory, language, problem-solving, and thinking skills, impacting your daily life. Tune in to today's episode where I'll explain in detail what dementia is, discuss common types, and share insights on how to recognize them and access the FREE handout that you can download: 10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer's disease and a checklist of things your provider should check if you're worried about your memory or the memory of someone you love. COMMON SYMPTOMS OF ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE ALZHEIMER'S DEMENTIA Alzheimer's dementia stands as the most common form of dementia, comprising 60-80% of cases. Recognizing its symptoms is crucial, including difficulty remembering recent conversations, names, or events, reduced enjoyment of activities, communication challenges like struggling to find words, and the overall impact on language use and understanding. VASCULAR DEMENTIA Vascular dementia is a condition that affects thinking, planning, judgment, memory, and other cognitive processes due to brain damage caused by reduced blood flow. This may show signs like slurred thoughts or decision-making challenges. Everyday tasks, such as filling out forms or planning events, may become a bit harder. It's important to notice these signs early for timely help and support. FRONTOTEMPORAL DEGENERATION (FTD) Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a progressive brain disease. This means over time; it causes parts of your brain to deteriorate and stop working. There's also a lot of denial that there is a memory problem and you may see less emotional expression, known as either having a flat affect or being apathetic. Notably, this is the type of dementia Bruce Willis is dealing with. When reports surfaced about his memory issues, they linked it to aphasia - the struggle with using and understanding language. PARKINSON'S DEMENTIA (PD) Parkinson's disease can cause a form of dementia known as Parkinson's dementia (PD). This condition is marked by a decline in thinking, reasoning, and problem-solving. Parkinson's dementia often involves falling, distinguishing it from others. While Lewy body and Frontotemporal dementia also involve falling, the direction varies – forward for Lewy body and backward for Parkinson's. LEWY BODY DEMENTIA (LBD) Lewy body dementia (LBD) is the second most common type of dementia after Alzheimer's disease. Early symptoms of Lewy body dementia include sleep disturbances, vivid visual hallucinations like seeing bugs or strangers, and difficulty with visual-spatial awareness, affecting one's sense of space and time.

Love and loss can lead us to become champions for a cause we never expected to face. My guest today is Mary Lou Falcone, an internationally renowned classical music publicist and strategist, who has spent five decades shaping the careers of prominent artists and institutions. However, it's her personal story that brings an added layer of depth to her illustrious career. Faced with her partner's diagnosis of Lewy Body Dementia, Mary Lou found herself in the most challenging role of her life – that of a caregiver. Her journey through love, loss, and caregiving has led her to become an advocate for Lewy Body dementia awareness, turning her personal struggle into a beacon of hope and inspiration for others. Throughout our conversation, Mary Lou will share insights from her book, 'I Didn't See It Coming: Scenes of Love, Loss, and Lewy Body Dementia.' Mary Lou shares how her early life experiences prepared her for caregiving, the challenges she faced while caring for her late husband, Nicky Zann, a popular 1950s rock 'n' roll musician who became a world-renowned cartoonist, illustrator, and painter, and why she chose to share their story with the world. We talk about Nicky's life, the profound loss, and the awakening to advocacy. We talk about the complex and often misunderstood world of Lewy Body Dementia (LBD), a condition that affects millions yet remains in the shadows. We'll explore not just the medical aspects of LBD, but the deeply personal experiences that come with caring for someone living with this condition. Mary Lou also shares about the importance of spreading awareness about LBD, the difficulties caregivers face, and the resources available for those battling this condition. This episode promises to be not just an exploration of LBD, but a testament to the power of love, resilience, and the human spirit in the face of adversity. To help increase awareness about Lewy body dementia, an often misdiagnosed neurodegenerative disease affecting approximately 11 million people worldwide, the film FACING THE WIND follows the journeys in real time of three families dealing with LBD. The film is scheduled to be released in late 2024 or early 2025. It was a delight to meet you and interview you, Mary Lou. Thank you for all you do to raise awareness and the many ways you advocate for those living with Lewy Body disease.

Dementia: Signs, Symptoms & Stories of Lewy Body. Dementia is a complex neurological condition that encompasses a range of cognitive impairments affecting memory, reasoning, and daily functioning. One specific form of dementia is Lewy body dementia (LBD), characterized by the presence of abnormal protein deposits called Lewy bodies in the brain. Recognizing the signs and symptoms of LBD is crucial for early diagnosis and effective management. Common signs of Lewy Body dementia (LBD) include fluctuating cognitive abilities, visual hallucinations, and motor symptoms such as Parkinsonism. Patients may experience vivid and often distressing hallucinations, adding a unique dimension to their cognitive decline. Additionally, individuals with LBD may exhibit difficulties with attention and problem-solving, further impacting their daily lives. Sharing Stories as a Form of Advocacy Stories of those affected by Lewy body dementia shed light on the emotional and practical challenges faced by patients and their caregivers. These narratives emphasize the importance of fostering a supportive environment, raising awareness, and promoting research to better understand and address this specific form of dementia. By sharing these stories, we aim to enhance public understanding and empathy toward individuals living with Lewy body dementia, ultimately contributing to a more compassionate and informed society. Our guest is Mary Lou Falcone an internationally known classical music publicist/strategist. Combining communication skills with her background as a performer and educator Mary Lou adds another layer: advocate for LBD awareness. Her late husband, the illustrator Nicky Zann, died from LBD in 2020 and was the catalyst for her first book, I Didn't See It Coming

Mary Lou Falcone became a caregiver when her father had a massive stroke. She was 10 years old. The experience prepared her for the day, many years later, when her husband, illustrator and 1950s rocker Nicky Zann, was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia (LBD). In her memoir, I Didn't See It Coming: Scenes of Love, Loss, and Lewy Body Dementia, Falcone talks about what it was like to have an international career, to be thought of in their social circles as "the golden couple," and then to face the cruel reality that the love of her life had an incurable, fatal disease. Falcone talks candidly about three of the most challenging aspects of caring for a spouse with dementia, especially LBD: incontinence, violence, and hyper-sexuality. She also shaes the challenges she faced in writing the memoir, particularly when her second editor guided her to reveal the deeply buried emotions that resulted in this personal and poignant story, a winner of the 2023 NYC Big Book Award "Distinguished Favorite" in the category of Caregiving. Falcone also shares an overview of the differences between LBD and Alzheimer's Disease, why it can be difficult to get a diagnosis, and her ongoing work as an advocate for LBD awareness. The interview portion of thie episode was originally recorded for a show on YouTube called "Page 1." Here's the link to see the video version of this podcast episode. The video version on YouTube includes a PSA created to honor my husband's memory. In the PSA is a photo of me and my husband at a wedding reception in 2017. Several hours after that photo was taken, he was rushed by ambulance to the ER. He had choked on a piece of meat. The PSA also includes a brief video I took one morning while my husband and I were hiking around a local reservoir. For more info in Mary Lou Falcone and her book, see her website: MaryLouFalcone.com
If you listened to the program Tuesday, you heard a conversation about Lewy Body Dementia, or LBD. This week as October turned to November, LBD Awareness month turned to National Caregiving Month. But for patients and caregivers, living with dementia is a daily reality. The Mayo Clinic in Rochester is hosting a conference Saturday to talk about how to make the most of life when dealing with decline in memory and cognition. MPR News guest host Chris Farrell talked with neurologist Vijay Ramanan and John-Richard Pagan, who lives in Virginia with Lewy Body Dementia. Both will be at the conference.
Today on the podcast, you'll hear from Mary Lou Falcone, Founder and owner of M.L. Falcone, Public Relations Mary Lou Falcone is internationally known as a classical music publicist/strategist who for 50 years has helped guide the careers of celebrated artists – Van Cliburn, Gustavo Dudamel, Renée Fleming, Sir Georg Solti, James Taylor – and advised many institutions including Carnegie Hall, Chicago Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Philadelphia Orchestra, New York Philharmonic, Vienna Philharmonic. Combining communication skills with her background as a performer and educator, she now adds another layer: advocate for Lewy body dementia (LBD) awareness. Her late husband, the illustrator Nicky Zann who died from LBD in 2020, was the catalyst for this her first book. This conversation was so inspiring to me - Mary Lou has SO MUCH wisdom to share for musicians today about seeing opportunities, about learning on the job, about taking agency, about integrity and kindness and paying it forward. She has such beautiful words about caregiving, and she relates it so beautifully to what we do in so many realms of our lives. I wanted her to keep talking forever. The book, I Didn't See it Coming, came out October 3 and I recommend it highly, but first please listen to this beautiful conversation.

C dans l'air du 9 août - Justice, violences : le grand malaise des policiers LES EXPERTS : - DAMIEN DELSENY - Rédacteur en chef adjoint en charge du service police-justice - « Le Parisien » - JÉRÔME FOURQUET - Directeur département Opinion - Institut de sondages IFOP - Auteur de « La France sous nos yeux » - JULIE MARIE-LECONTE - Cheffe du service politique - France Info - FRÉDÉRIC PLOQUIN - Journaliste spécialisé dans le banditisme et la police Trois policiers du RAID sont toujours en garde à vue suite à la mort de Mohamed Bendriss, un livreur de 27 ans, dans la nuit du 1er au 2 juillet. Son décès est advenu en marge des émeutes et des pillages qui ont suivi la mort à Nanterre de Nahel Merzouk. L'adolescent de 17 ans avait été tué par un policier. Retrouvé inanimé devant le domicile de sa mère, en plein centre de Marseille, après avoir fait un malaise au guidon de son scooter, Mohamed Bendriss avait été transportée à l'hôpital. C'est là que son décès a été constaté. Un médecin a alors observé un impact au niveau du thorax. Cet impact, à l'origine de la mort du jeune homme, pourrait être la conséquence d'un tir de lanceur de balles de défense (LBD). Ce n'est pas la seule affaire qui secoue actuellement la police à Marseille. Dans la même nuit du 1er au 2 juillet, Hedi, un employé de restauration de 21 ans, a été hospitalisé après avoir reçu un tir de LBD dans la tempe. L'exploitation de caméras de surveillance a prouvé que la victime avait été également été rouée de coups. Une partie de son crâne a dû être amputée. Quatre policiers de la brigade anticriminalité ont été mis en examen pour violences volontaires aggravées. L'un d'eux, placé en détention provisoire, a finalement reconnu le 4 août devant la justice avoir fait "usage de LBD". Il niait ce fait jusque-là. Le maintien en détention de ce policier a entraîné un mouvement de soutien de la part de ses collègues et des syndicats. L'institution, au plus haut niveau, a, elle aussi, apporté son soutien au policier mis en cause. Le directeur général de la police nationale, Frédéric Veaux, a en effet affirmé dans une interview au journal Le Parisien le 23 juillet dernier qu'un policier n'a pas sa place en prison dans l'attente d'un procès. Sur Twitter, Laurent Nuñez, préfet de police, avait assuré partager les propos de Frédéric Veaux. Une vision qui a suscité l'indignation d'une partie de la classe politique et a soulevé des craintes sur l'indépendance de la justice. Un des acteurs majeurs de ces événements est évidemment Gérald Darmanin. Le ministre de l'Intérieur affiche un soutien sans faille aux policiers, alors même que le sentiment de défiance vis-à-vis de la police grandit. Les récentes bavures de policiers ont en effet entamé le crédit de ces derniers, comme de l'institution qu'ils représentent, auprès d'une partie de la population. Peu importe pour Gérald Darmanin. L'ancien maire de Tourcoing aime endosser le costume de "premier flic de France". Son parcours fait déjà de lui l'un des ministres les lus en vue du gouvernement. Près de trois ans après sa nomination à Beauvau, il a fait de son poste un marchepied pour la suite de sa carrière. Difficile de ne pas faire le parallèle avec son mentor en politique, Nicolas Sarkozy, qui en 2005 et 2006 s'était aussi servi de ce portefeuille comme d'un tremplin vers l'Elysée. L'actuel ministre de l'Intérieur ne semble pas moins ambitieux que son aîné. Il ne faisait déjà pas mystère, avant le dernier remaniement, de sa volonté de devenir Premier ministre. Sur le terrain, les nuits d'émeutes qui ont suivi la mort du jeune Nahel ont laissé des traces. Une équipe de C dans l'air s'est rendue à la rencontre du maire de Neuilly-sur-Marne, en Seine-Saint-Denis. Zartoshte Bakhtiari revient sur ces nuits agitées et sur les importantes dégradations causées à sa commune. Plusieurs semaines après, il ne comprend toujours pas comment certains de ses administrés ont pu basculer dans une telle violence. L'institution considère-t-elle que les policiers ne sont pas des justiciables comme les autres ? Gérald Darmanin pourra-t-il maintenir son soutien sans faille aux policiers ? Comment reconstruire après les émeutes ?

durée : 00:15:11 - Journal de 18h - 5 policiers du Raid ont été placés en garde à vue aujourd'hui à Marseille. La justice enquête sur la mort d'un jeune homme de 27 ans pendant les émeutes au début du mois de juillet. L'autopsie a révélé un choc au cœur. Reste à savoir si ce choc a pu être provoqué par un projectile policier type LBD.
C dans l'air du 25 juillet - Policiers en grève : la tache d'huile avant la crise ? LES EXPERTS : - DRISS AÏT YOUSSEF - Docteur en droit public - Spécialiste des questions de sécurité globale - AUDREY GOUTARD - Cheffe de service enquête et reportage à France Télévisions - VINCENT BRENGARTH - Avocat pénaliste - JEFF WITTENBERG - Journaliste politique à France télévisions Pensait-il pouvoir esquiver le sujet ? Lors de son intervention télévisée hier, Emmanuel Macron s'est prêté à un jeu d'équilibriste, interrogé sur le placement en détention d'un des quatre policiers mis en examen pour violences volontaires sur un jeune homme à Marseille. Dans cette intervention, le président de la République affirmera "Nul n'est au-dessus des lois", tout en comprenant l'émotion des policiers suscitée par cette décision de justice. Depuis, la colère gronde dans la cité phocéenne où 600 fonctionnaires se sont mis en arrêt maladie ce lundi, contre 400 vendredi. Une grève du zèle qui pourrait encore s'intensifier, avec partout en France des agents de la paix qui ont décidé de rejoindre le mouvement, comme à Nice ou encore Versailles, soutenus par le directeur général de la police nationale Frédéric Veaux. Ce week-end, sa prise de position dans la presse a fait l'effet d'une bombe. Pour lui, les policiers en attente de procès n'ont rien à faire en prison. Le préfet de Police de Paris, Laurent Nuñez, a adopté dans la foulée exactement la même ligne, suivie par l'ensemble des syndicats de forces de l'ordre, d'Alliance à l'UNSA. Le syndicat de la magistrature, lui, n'a pas tardé à réagir, regrettant l'absence de prise de position tranchée d'Emmanuel Macron. "En ne dénonçant pas expressément cette attaque inédite contre l'indépendance de la justice, il ne remplit pas son rôle constitutionnel", a déclaré le syndicat sur Twitter. Même le ministre de l'Intérieur, Gérald Darmanin, traditionnellement enclin à soutenir les forces de l'ordre, fait preuve d'un étonnant mutisme depuis quelques jours. Un mois après les émeutes qui ont embrasé banlieues et centres villes à la suite de la mort de Nahel à Nanterre, une nouvelle crise menace le gouvernement, taxé de ne pas se saisir de la question du mal-être policier tout comme de celle du racisme dans la police, pourtant maintes fois évoqué par le Défenseur des droits ces dernières années. Si les émeutes n'ont duré que 4 jours, elles ont été d'une extrême violence. A Marseille, un homme de 27 ans a succombé à un tir de LBD dans le cœur dans la nuit du 1er au 2 juillet, tandis que son cousin de 21 ans a été éborgné par un tir de projectile. Deux enquêtes ont été ouvertes par le parquet de Marseille. Les forces de l'ordre ont également été pris pour cible. D'après le ministère de l'Intérieur, 700 policiers et gendarmes ont été blessés à la suite des émeutes. Un mois plus tard, les forces de l'ordre semblent usées physiquement et psychologiquement, et regrettent le manque de soutien politique. La profession accuse 46 suicides sur l'année 2022, signe d'un profond mal-être, et les 15 milliards d'euros promis par Emmanuel Macron lors de sa campagne électorale de 2022, ne semblent pas suffisants à redresser une institution coupée de la population. Dans les quartiers populaires comme Vaulx-en-Velin (Rhône), ce problème ne date pourtant pas d'hier. Déjà en octobre 1990, la commune la plus pauvre de l'agglomération lyonnaise s'était embrasée pendant 3 jours après la mort d'un jeune à scooter, percuté par une voiture de police. "Nous n'avons jamais apporté une réponse de fond pour réinstaurer de la confiance entre les jeunes et la police", estime la maire socialiste de la ville, Hélène Geoffroy, qui plaide pour la création d'un parquet spécialisé sur ce type d'affaires. A l'époque, les émeutes de Vaulx-en-Velin avaient été à l'origine de la création du ministère de la ville, puis de plusieurs plans banlieues, jusqu'à ce fameux plan Borloo, écarté en 2018 par… Emmanuel Macron. Sommes-nous à l'aube d'une nouvelle crise entre l'institution judiciaire et la police ? Comment expliquer le mutisme du gouvernement sur cette question ? Quelles pistes le gouvernement veut-il entreprendre pour renouer le lien entre les Français et leur police ?

Joined again by LBD, we share our thoughts on Burbs vs. City stress, break down how depressed Mac gets (depressed enough to kill a dog!), and I make the case this is in Sunny's top ten of all time. Enjoy!
A new study has suggested that women who take hormone replacement therapy to relieve their menopause symptoms may increase their risk of dementia. Scientists at Copenhagen University found that women who had taken HRT were 24 per cent more likely to get dementia or Alzheimer's disease than women of the same age and background who did not use the treatment. But other researchers have said that the cognitive declines may not have been due to treatment. Joining Hayley are Professor Pauline Maki from the University of Illinois at Chicago who has conducted research on menopause and Dr Nelsan Pourhadi from the Danish Dementia Research Centre, the lead researcher on the study. This weekend, World Wrestling Entertainment is coming to the UK. Among the professional wrestlers performing at the 02 in London will be the current Women's World Champion Rhea Ripley. She has had a meteoric rise to the top of WWE and joins Hayley to talk about her journey to becoming champion, as well as what it's like to be a woman in such a masculine world. Baroness Margaret McDonagh, the first female general secretary of the Labour Party, has died aged 61. Margaret McDonagh became a key figure in the Labour party under Sir Tony Blair's leadership, and played a central role in the 1997 and 2001 Labour general election victories. Glioblastoma, a type of brain tumour caused her death. Her sister Siobhain believes more research is needed into the causes and treatment of glioblastoma. Next week is the start of Wimbledon. Last week marked the 50th Anniversary of the creation of the Women's Tennis Association, also known as the WTA. It was established by Billie Jean King in 1973, after a meeting in London of 60 of the world's best female tennis players at the time. Krupa Padhy recently spoke to Sue Barker, who has both played at Wimbledon and been the presenter of BBC TV coverage for three decades, before stepping down last year. Krupa asked Sue if she thinks women's tennis, driven by Billie Jean King, has improved since she herself was playing in the 1970s and 1980s. From Liz Hurley's iconic safety pin dress, to Audrey Hepburn's iconic ‘Breakfast at Tiffany's' gown, the Little Black Dress has taken many forms over the years. The National Museum of Scotland opens an exhibition this weekend called ‘Beyond the Little Black Dress' which will explore the evolution of the LBD and its relationship with female liberation since it came on the scene almost 100 years ago. Hayley is joined by the exhibit's curator, Georgina Ripley to find out more. Presenter: Hayley Hassall Producer: Rebecca Myatt Studio manager: Bob Nettles
