Hour 3 of the Wednesday Bob Rose Show, on the continuing fight against illegal immigration. And the story of the New Orleans Police Department's lax background checks on recruits. An illegal immigrant with deportation orders progressed through the city's police academy, nearly graduating to a full street officer. Plus, the morning's biggest stories for 2-4-26.
In this episode of Murder in the Black, we unpack the heartbreaking story of Kim Groves—a Black woman, community advocate, and mother whose decision to report police misconduct in 1994 set off a chain of events that would change everything.What began as one woman speaking up against abuse of power quickly revealed something much bigger: a deeply corrupted system inside the New Orleans Police Department, and a city already battling violence, fear, and broken trust.Kim's story forces us to confront the cost of courage, the danger Black communities face when they challenge authority, and the uncomfortable truth that corruption doesn't always look like a stranger—it can wear a badge.The violent reality of New Orleans in the 1990s and the systemic failures that shaped itCorruption inside the NOPD, including the actions of Officer Len DavisKim Groves' courage—and what happens when a Black woman refuses to stay silentThe long history of mistrust between Black communities and law enforcement in AmericaHow race, power, and internal systems of oppression complicate “protection” and “justice”The investigation, cooperation deals, and what accountability looks like in a corrupt systemWhy police reform is still an urgent conversation—and why stories like Kim's must be rememberedTimestamps00:00 — Introduction + case overview00:35 — New Orleans in the 1990s: context + tension01:02 — Crime statistics + community impact02:24 — Len Davis + Kim Groves background03:42 — Misconduct culture inside the NOPD05:59 — Operation Shattered Shield begins08:11 — Kim files a misconduct complaint09:33 — The danger of speaking out11:05 — The legacy of racial oppression + policing13:09 — Kim Groves' murder + surveillance footage14:57 — Trial tactics: discrediting the victim16:37 — Witness testimony + plea deals20:03 — Victim-blaming + “perfect victim” expectations21:41 — Sentencing + why plea agreements matter24:50 — Len Davis' death + the lasting damage25:45 — Corruption and community trauma27:08 — Remembering Kim's humanity28:20 — Corruption involving Black officers30:05 — Accountability: personal + systemic31:26 — Closing reflection: race, policing, reformResources & LinksFBI: Operation Shattered ShieldKim Groves case coverage + justice reportingFollow + Support Murder in the Black
In this episode of Everyday Injustice, host David Greenwald talks with former federal prosecutor Jared Fishman, author of Fire on the Levee: The Murder of Henry Glover and the Search for Justice after Hurricane Katrina. Fishman revisits the 2005 killing of Henry Glover by New Orleans police officers in the chaotic days following Hurricane Katrina, a case he investigated and brought to trial early in his career. Twenty years later, he reflects on what the tragedy revealed about institutional breakdown and systemic failure in American policing. Fishman, who now leads the Justice Innovation Lab, discusses how Katrina exposed not just a natural disaster, but “a disaster of real human proportions.” The aftermath of Glover's killing, he explains, underscored the collapse of accountability in law enforcement—when “all forms of accountability were crushed” and a culture of silence protected wrongdoing. His work later helped spur major reforms in the New Orleans Police Department, but he cautions that the department's progress remains incomplete. The conversation also traces how awareness of systemic police misconduct has evolved since those early post-Katrina years. Before Ferguson and George Floyd, Fishman says, most Americans viewed police abuse as isolated incidents—“bad apples” rather than symptoms of a broken system. Today, he argues, there's wider recognition that true reform means confronting the institutional incentives, recruitment models, and training failures that perpetuate injustice across jurisdictions. Finally, Fishman links these lessons to current debates over federal militarization of cities. Drawing on his experience in both war zones and American courtrooms, he warns that the sight of National Guard troops in U.S. streets should “alarm everyone,” calling it evidence of “how fragile our institutions are.” Real public safety, he concludes, depends on addressing root causes—poverty, mental health, and inequality—not on “arresting more people” or treating social problems through the criminal legal system.

We get into a secret partnership between the New Orleans Police Department and Project NOLA, a private nonprofit organisation that owns and operates an extensive network of cameras blanketing New Orleans. For years, Project NOLA has been running live facial recognition through their cameras and sending automated notifications to the police when a match is made using Project NOLA's privately maintained list of “wanted people.” By going through an unofficial private partner, police have been able to sidestep and undermine legal prohibition on their use of AI technologies like facial recognition. We get into the history of using New Orleans as a testbed for policing technology, the dangerous precedent being set by this public-private relationship, and how this surveillance nightmare is on track to become even more expansive and unleashed thanks to potential policy changes. ••• Police secretly monitored New Orleans with facial recognition cameras https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2025/05/19/live-facial-recognition-police-new-orleans/ ••• A bad facial recognition match costs Jefferson Parish Sheriff Joe Lopinto's office.

The New Orleans City Council unanimously passed an ordinance on May 8, 2025, to protect sex workers from arrest and prosecution for prostitution if they are reporting crimes committed against them. This new law codifies an existing New Orleans Police Department policy that discourages arresting sex workers who are victims or witnesses to crimes, aiming to encourage their cooperation with investigations without fear of their own arrest. A key component, the "Right to Safe Sex" provision, prevents law enforcement from using the possession of condoms as evidence of prostitution. The Trans Income Project, a Louisiana-based support group for transgender individuals, was a significant force behind this legislation, highlighting its potential benefits for trans people, many of whom have experience in the sex industry. It's important to note that while this ordinance applies to the New Orleans Police Department, it does not cover other law enforcement agencies operating within the city, such as Troop NOLA.Other Cities and Vicinities Considering Decriminalization of ProstitutionSeveral other jurisdictions have been discussing or have introduced legislation concerning the decriminalization of sex work. Here's what was found:* Washington, D.C.: Advocates in D.C. have highlighted that decriminalizing sex work is a matter of health, safety, and survival, noting that criminalization can lead to various threats for sex workers. Models in other countries like New Zealand and Belgium, where decriminalization has occurred, show improved conditions for sex workers, including better legal, health, and safety rights, and improved relations with police.* New York: Bills have been introduced (S3075/A849 in 2022) aiming to remove criminal penalties for consenting adults involved in sex work. The arguments in favor suggest this could lead to better regulation, improved healthcare access, and increased support for those in the industry.* Massachusetts: Similar to New York, Massachusetts has considered legislation (bill H1867) to decriminalize prostitution while maintaining legal consequences for pimps and buyers, focusing on reducing exploitation and ensuring sex worker safety.* Vermont: Vermont has also engaged in discussions about decriminalizing sex work (bill H630), with proponents arguing it would promote harm reduction and improve access to support services.* Missouri: Discussions regarding the potential decriminalization of prostitution are also taking place in Missouri.* Hawaii and Rhode Island: Lawmakers in Hawaii have introduced measures to decriminalize prostitution for both sex workers and clients. In Rhode Island, some lawmakers are pushing for measures to protect sex workers and clients who report crimes.* Tennessee: Legislation has been introduced in Tennessee to provide some protections for sex workers.It's worth noting that while many states have proposed legislation to decriminalize sex work over the past decade (including Maine, Massachusetts, New York, and Vermont, as well as Washington, DC), these broader state-level policy changes have often faced challenges in passing. Currently, Nevada is the only U.S. state where prostitution is legal in some counties through licensed brothels.Contact KOP for professional podcast production, imaging, and web design services at http://www.kingofpodcasts.comSupport KOP by subscribing to his YouTube channel and search for King Of PodcastsFollow KOP on X or TikTok or LinkedIn @kingofpodcastsFind KOP's other programs, Podcasters Row… and the Wrestling is Real Wrestling Podcast and The Broadcasters Podcast at http://www.kingofpodcasts.comBuy KOP a Coffee https://buymeacoffee.com/kingofpodcastsDrop KOP a PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=3TAB983ZQPNVLDrop KOP a CashApp https://cash.app/$kingofallpodcastsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/depraved-and-debaucherous--5267208/support.
Crime statistics are meant to help police departments identify trends, allocate resources and shape effective public safety strategies. But what if the national crime data we rely on — like FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) and NIBRS — is incomplete, outdated or misleading? In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, host Jim Dudley speaks with Jeff Asher — CIA-trained crime analyst, former New Orleans Police Department data expert and founder of AH Datalytics — about the challenges with traditional crime data collection and the rise of real-time crime monitoring tools. They discuss why the transition to NIBRS has been slow and inconsistent, and how delays in national reporting limit law enforcement's ability to respond to crime trends. Asher, who also publishes the Jeffalytics Substack newsletter, has emerged as a national voice on U.S. crime trends. Drawing from his experience in both federal intelligence and local law enforcement, he explains why agencies need faster, more transparent access to crime data — and how tools like the Realtime Crime Index are filling the gap.

Editor Sandra Adair, ACE and assistant editor Carissa Bronson HIT MAN editor Sandra Adair, ACE is no stranger to working with writer/director Richard Linklater. The two first collaborated on Linklater's debut studio feature, DAZED AND CONFUSED (1993). Over the next thirty years they would go on to make the "Before" trilogy - BEFORE SUNRISE (1995), BEFORE SUNSET (2004), BEFORE MIDNIGHT (2013), as well as the over-a-decade-in-the-making BOYHOOD (2014), for which Sandra would receive an Oscar® nomination for Best Film Editing. Someone else Sandra has had by her side in the cutting for several years is assistant editor Carissa Bronson, who first worked with Sandra on her documentary, THE SECRET LIFE OF LANCE LETSCHER (2017). The somewhat true story of HIT MAN tells the tale of Gary Johnson, who is a professor of psychology and philosophy at the University of New Orleans, while also working undercover with the New Orleans Police Department to assist in undercover sting operations. When Jasper, a fellow cop who portrays fake hitmen to solicit murder-for-hire confessions and payments from “customers,” is suspended, Gary is unwillingly ushered into the role. Gary quickly finds himself to be a natural in garnering solicitations, going so far as to research suspects in advance and tailor a unique persona for each one. Things take a big turn for Gary when he meets Madison, a beautiful woman who tries to contract "Ron" (Gary) to kill her abusive husband. SANDRA ADAIR, ACE Sandra Adair is known for her work on BOYHOOD (2014), BERNIE (2012), SCHOOL OF ROCK (2003), and the cult classic DAZED AND CONFUSED (1993). Adair is also known for her work on the critically acclaimed 'Before' trilogy, BEFORE SUNRISE (1995), BEFORE SUNSET (2004) and BEFORE MIDNIGHT (2013). Adair made her directorial debut with the feature documentary, THE SECRET LIFE OF LANCE LETSCHER (2017).

Produced and directed by Richard Linklater, Hit Man is the romantic action comedy film based on the 2001 Texas Monthly magazine article of the same name by Skip Hollandsworth. Strait-laced professor Gary Johnson (Glen Powell) moonlights as a fake hit man for the New Orleans Police Department. Gifted at inhabiting different guises and personalities to catch hapless people hoping to bump off their enemies, Gary descends into morally dubious territory when he finds himself attracted to one of those potential criminals, a beautiful young woman named Madison (Adria Arjona). As Madison falls for one of Gary's hit man personas - the mysteriously sexy Ron - their steamy affair sets off a chain reaction of play acting, deception, and escalating stakes.
Hit Man, from arthouse darling Richard Linklater, tells the true-ish story of a "fake hitman" working for the New Orleans Police Department.

Episode 1: “Lost/Found” Directed by: Leslye Headland Written by: Leslye Headland Release Date: June 4, 2024 Summary: 100 years before the rise of the Galactic Empire, the Galactic Republic and Jedi Order preside during a time of centuries-long peace. In a bar on the planet Ueda, Jedi Master Indara is attacked and killed by a woman wielding daggers. The bartender identifies Osha Aniseya, a former Jedi Padawan learner, as the killer. Osha, who works as a meknek doing dangerous repairs on the outside of starships, denies committing the crime when arrested by Jedi Knight Yord Fandar and his Padawan Tasi Lowa. En route to Coruscant, the galactic capital, Osha’s fellow prisoners escape and leave her to crash-land on the planet Carlac. She sees a vision of her twin sister Mae, who was presumed dead in a fire that killed their family when they were young. Osha deduces that Mae is alive and the one who killed Indara. Jedi Master Vernestra Rwoh sends Master Sol, Osha’s former teacher, to Carlac with his current Padawan, Jecki Lon, and Yord. They find Osha, and Sol accepts her theory about Mae. Elsewhere, Mae meets with her mysterious master, who has challenged her to kill a Jedi without using a weapon. Episode 2: “Revenge/Justice” Directed by: Leslye Headland Written by: Jason Micallef and Charmaine DeGrate Release Date: June 4, 2024 Summary: Mae attempts to kill Jedi Master Torbin in a temple on the planet Olega, but is prevented by his Force meditation; Torbin has been floating in silent meditation for over a decade. Vernestra sends Sol, Jeckie, Yord, and Osha to investigate this attack. Mae regroups with her supplier, Qimir, who is helping her hunt the four Jedi that were stationed on her and Osha’s home planet, Brendok, at the time of the fire: Indara, Torbin, Sol, and the Wookiee Kelnacca. Qimir provides Mae with a poison and warns her that she still needs to kill one of the four without a weapon. Mae offers the poison to Torbin as absolution for his past. He stops meditating and willingly takes it, dying just as the others arrive. Mae escapes, and Osha poses as her to get information from Qimir. He reveals the existence of Mae’s master and her overall plan. That night, Sol confronts Mae and reveals to her that Osha is alive. Osha attempts to stun Mae but misses, and Mae escapes again. She later threatens Qimir over talking to the Jedi, but he convinces her to spare him because he has learned that Kelnacca is living on the planet Khofar. Hit Man (Netflix) Out of 10 Is Gary Really a Serial Killers Darryl: 6/10 Brian: 6.8/10 Summary Gary Johnson is a professor of psychology and philosophy at the University of New Orleans, while also working undercover with the New Orleans Police Department to assist in undercover sting operations. When Jasper, a fellow cop who portrays fake hitman to solicit murder-for-hire confessions and payments from “customers,” is suspended, Gary is unwillingly ushered into the role. Gary quickly finds himself to be a natural in garnering solicitations, going so far as to research suspects in advance and tailor a unique persona for each one. Gary adopts the persona of a man named “Ron” to garner a solicitation from a discontent married woman named Madison, who is trying to have her controlling husband killed. While conversing with her, Gary quickly becomes both sympathetic and attracted to Madison; when Madison attempts to pay “Ron”, Gary refuses the money and suggests that Madison use that money to restart her life, much to the disappointment of Gary's coworkers. Gary begins a relationship with Madison, but maintains his “Ron” persona with her. Madison reveals she owns a gun, and Gary shows her how to use it and instructs her to shoot someone in the heart should she need to kill. One night shortly after clubbing, Gary and Madison have a heated encounter with Ray, Madison's ex-husband, which ends with Gary pulling a gun to back Ray off. Later that night, while outside at a restaurant, Gary and Madison encounter Jasper, who is suspicious of the two being together.

A Killer Romance - Mit dem heute Topfilm-Titel gab es ein bißchen Verwirrung. Der Originaltitel ist "Hit Man" und der "deutsche" Titel ist "A KILLER ROMANCE" und ist der neue Film von Richard Linklater (Before Sunrise, Boyhood, Waking Life, A Scanner Darkly,...) mit dem Shooting Star Glen Powell. Außerdem geht es um die Premiere von "IM WASSER DER SEINE" (Sous la Seine / Under Paris) und die Serien: "STAR WARS: ACOLYTE", "ERIC" und "THE BEAR". Wie immer hört ihr bei uns die offiziellen Stuttgarter Kinocharts und unsere Serien-Neustart Empfehlungen für die nächsten Wochen. Viel Spaß beim Hören und vergesst nicht zu liken und zu kommentieren! A Killer Romance: Diese romantische Komödie ist smart, sexy und urkomisch! Der fünfmalig Oscar®-nominierte Regisseur Richard Linklater ("Before Sunrise") und der allseits heiß gehandelte Hauptdarsteller Glen Powell ("Wo die Lüge hinfällt") landeten bei den Filmfestspielen in Venedig mit A KILLER ROMANCE (OT: HIT MAN) beim Publikum wie bei den Kritikern einen Sensationserfolg. Freuen Sie sich auf die überraschendste RomCom des Jahres - ab 4. Juli im Kino! Psychologie-Professor Gary Johnson (Glen Powell) führt ein eher unaufgeregtes Leben an der Universität, nur sein neuer Nebenjob beim New Orleans Police Department sorgt für Abwechslung: als vermeintlicher Killer dient er als Lockvogel, um seine Auftraggeber hinter Gitter zu bringen. Gary zeigt überraschendes Talent darin, sich für jeden seiner Kunden maßgeschneiderte Killer-Persönlichkeiten auszudenken und zu verkörpern. Für Garys erstes Treffen mit der attraktiven Madison (Adria Arjona), die ihren gewalttätigen Ehemann um die Ecke bringen lassen will, denkt er sich die Figur des abgebrühten Killers Ron aus. Doch plötzlich wird es kompliziert: Madison gefällt ihm sehr und zum ersten Mal versucht Gary, jemanden vor dem Gefängnis zu bewahren, statt verhaften zu lassen. Als Madison sich dann tatsächlich in den coolen und sexy Ron -alias Gary- verliebt, löst ihre heiße Affäre eine unheilvolle Kettenreaktion aus. Denn auch Madison hat noch nicht alle Karten auf den Tisch gelegt... A KILLER ROMANCE, gemeinsam geschrieben von dem fünfmalig Oscar®-nominierten Regisseur Richard Linklater ("Boyhood", "Before Sunrise") und Hauptdarsteller Glen Powell ("Wo die Lüge hinfällt" "Top Gun: Maverick"), wurde von einer unglaublichen wahren Geschichte inspiriert. Der Film ist eine clevere romantische Komödie, außerdem sexy und aufregend - dabei ein immer wieder überraschendes, filmisches Vergnügen. Glen Powell konnte bereits neben Tom Cruise in "Top Gun: Maverick" auf sich aufmerksam machen und ist durch den weltweiten Kassenerfolg der romantischen Komödie "Wo die Lüge hinfällt" aktuell der neue Kino-Star! In A KILLER ROMANCE zeigt er sich gemeinsam mit Adria Arjona ("Der Vater der Braut", "Sweet Girl") als umwerfend attraktives, heißblütiges und grandios unterhaltsames Paar auf der großen Leinwand. A KILLER ROMANCE (OT: HIT MAN) feierte seine Weltpremiere bei den Filmfestspielen in Venedig 2023 und lief als Deutschlandpremiere im Rahmen des Filmfest Hamburg 2023.
Adria Arjona has been showing off her impeccable craft and great range for years now, but Hit Man might be one of her most impressive performances of the bunch. She isn't playing a femme fatale in the film, rather, she's playing a woman playing a femme fatale to better suit what she thinks her new beau wants to see in a potential partner — which is exactly what he's doing to her. It's a mighty complicated concept that demands the most refined screenplay and deft performances. Glen Powell headlines Richard Linklater's Hit Man as the title character, in a sense. Powell's Gary isn't a hit man, but rather, a “hit man.” He's a college professor who moonlights for the New Orleans Police Department by posing as a hit man in attempt to catch people trying to off an enemy. It turns out, Gary is quite good at the gig, effortlessly adapting his image to the type of hit man he thinks his target would best respond to. However, one target throws him for a loop — Arjona's Madison. Madison is struggling with an abusive husband and sees no way out, so tries to hire Gary, posing as Ron, to kill him. Trouble is, Gary winds up falling for Madison, and she winds up falling for him, too — but as Ron.Hit Man is an utterly delightful and hugely entertaining neo-noir, one that required maximum precision to pull off. Powell isn't the only one playing a person putting on a persona in the film. So is Arjona. Pulling off such a performance in a way that holds tight to the grounded challenges that put their characters in these positions is no easy task, but Arjona excels tackling the challenge. While Madison was likely a strong character on the page, there's no doubt that Arjona's work is what makes her soar.How'd Arjona acquire the skill set to genre jump, entertain and craft a deeply human character all at once? That's exactly what we discussed during our Collider Ladies Night interview in celebration of the release of Hit Man, which is now available to stream on Netflix. Hosted on Acast.

They were charged with trespassing and disturbing the peace... ”We know that the events of that night were, and are, emotionally overwhelming for our entire community, especially for the students present at the protest and the staff and faculty who were on site to provide support,” said Bernhardt. “Emerson has continued to be supportive in multiple ways – sending staff to all the precincts and posting bail for arrested students, canceling and modifying classes so our community could process what had occurred, and providing additional care and support for our community to heal.” Additionally, the college won't bring campus disciplinary charges against the protesters related to the encampment and asked the district attorney not to pursue charges. Emerson College will also provide housing to out-of-town students who need to come back to Boston for court appearances. Sgt.

Last month, the New Orleans police superintendent told the city council that police headquarters needed a lot of upgrades. But one comment stuck out: "They're all high." It had nothing to do with anyone in the city, but with rodents in the department's evidence room. This week on Something Offbeat, Audacy's Mark Menard, a Louisiana native, joined Mike Rogers to discuss the saga at the New Orleans Police Department.

Hundreds of nurses at University Medical Center New Orleans voted to unionize last week. It's one of Louisiana's largest union elections in recent decades and the first private hospital in the state to unionize, according to National Nurses United, a union representing nurses across the country. Lucy Mendez is a registered nurse at UMC New Orleans in the emergency department. She spoke with the Gulf State's Newsrooms Stephan Bisaha about why she voted for and campaigned to join the union. Last month, the New Orleans Police Department released a draft proposal to deploy unmanned aircraft systems to assist with policing. In other words, the NOPD is preparing to use drones. Critics are concerned the drones could reduce residents' privacy and be used to harass low-income neighborhoods. Nick Chrastil has been covering this story for The Lens and joins us for more on the rollout plan and NOPD's recent drone demonstration.

Episode 1881: In this KEEN ON show, Andrew talks to Rafi Kohan, author of TRASH TALK, about Muhammed Ali, Babe Ruth, Michael Jordan, Elon Musk and why talking smack is as old as the bibleRafi Kohan is an Atlanta-based writer, editor, and creative leader. He is the author of Trash Talk: The Only Book About Destroying Your Rivals That Isn't Total Garbage, which is available for pre-order now (pub date: December 5th) and examines the art and science of talking shit not just as a quirk of modern gamesmanship, but also as a deeply ingrained human behavioral phenomenon that has erupted across time, culture, and geography. With reporting that ranges from playground basketball courts and cricket grounds to insult-comedy stages, UFC mega fights, wrestling rings, military survival schools, and more, Trash Talk is the first-ever book to explore the topic, a “joyful, adventurous read” (Jeff Pearlman), and “very, very funny” (Anthony Jeselnik). Kohan's first book, The Arena: Inside the Tailgating, Ticket-Scalping, Mascot-Racing, Dubiously Funded, and Possibly Haunted Monuments of American Sport, weaves together on-the-ground reporting, hundreds of original interviews, and deep-dive research into a wide-ranging and interdisciplinary examination of the modern American sports stadium. The book was a finalist for the 2018 PEN/ESPN Award for Literary Sports Writing and was lauded in the New York Times Book Review as “smart, readable, deeply reported and researched, engagingly personal, funny and often surprisingly poignant.” The Wall Street Journal dubbed Kohan “the Studs Terkel of stadium life.” Previously, Kohan served as deputy editor at The New York Observer, where he wrote a variety of long-form feature and cover stories, including a bombshell profile of Carmelo Anthony in October 2013, which broke the news that the star forward was going to test the free agent market. As a journalist, his writing has also appeared in numerous outlets and publications, including GQ (where he worked for five years), Men's Journal, The Wall Street Journal, Town & Country, Slate, Rolling Stone, The Ringer, ESPN, Vice, Los Angeles Times, and The Washington Post, among others, covering everything from identity theft to the World Series of Birding to the New Orleans Police Department on Mardi Gras. (That last piece, written for GQ, was named “Notable” in The Best American Travel Writing anthology.) Most recently, Kohan worked at The Atlantic, as the executive editorial director for Re:think, the magazine's award-winning creative studio. He and his team executed ambitious content programs on behalf of dozens of brands, including HBO, Allstate, Lyft, Nest, Netflix, HPE, The North Face, Google, REI, Walmart, and many, many more. Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators. In addition to presenting KEEN ON, he is the host of the long-running How To Fix Democracy show. He is also the author of four prescient books about digital technology: CULT OF THE AMATEUR, DIGITAL VERTIGO, THE INTERNET IS NOT THE ANSWER and HOW TO FIX THE FUTURE. Andrew lives in San Francisco, is married to Cassandra Knight, Google's VP of Litigation & Discovery, and has two grown children.

On March 13, 2020, 42-year-old Huong Helene Nguyen is reported missing to the New Orleans Police Department. By 8:10 p.m. that day, the authorities discover her body less than a mile from her home. Huong's killer shot her multiple times, shoved her body into the trunk of her own car, drove the car to a remote parking lot, and abandoned it. Investigators interview Huong's family members and friends, but it seems as though no strong leads turn up. A week later, on March 20, Huong's funeral services are held. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, only a limited number of Huong's immediate family can attend. But Huong's younger brother whom she lived with, 37-year-old Hoa Phong Nguyen, is conspicuously absent. Hours later, the NOPD announces that they have a warrant for Hoa's arrest. He is being charged with his sister's murder — and he's on the run. In episode 271, Jac and Alexis examine the complicated path that the Nguyen family is forced to take as they navigate the physical and emotional loss of two children.

We recently welcomed back director Richard Linklater for the U.S. premiere of Hit Man, a Spotlight selection in this year's festival, for a post-screening Q&A with NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. Richard Linklater's peppy sunlit neo-noir is a continually surprising delight. Glen Powell, in a wily and charismatic star turn, plays strait-laced philosophy professor Gary Johnson, who moonlights as an undercover hitman for the New Orleans Police Department, inhabiting different guises and personalities to catch hapless criminals hoping to bump off their enemies. It's based on an improbable true story, with a few wild embellishments. Tickets to the New York Film Festival are moving fast!

Thursday, October 13th of 1994 was a big day for New Orleans. On one side of town, their new police superintendent, Richard Pennington, was being sworn into office. On the other side of town, a beloved mother of three was being murdered. This mother was 32-year-old Kim Marie Groves. As a result of Kim's unfortunate death at the hands of dirty police officers, the New Orleans Police Department's rampant corruption would be exposed, and Superintendent Pennington's reign as the head of the NOPD would be forever changed.Hosted and produced by Erica KelleyResearched and written by Andrea Marshbank Additional Writing by Erica Kelley Original Graphic Art by Coley HornerOriginal Music by Rob Harrison of Gamma RadioEdited & Mixed by Brandon Schexnayder of Southern Gothic & Erica KelleySources: https://www.southernfriedtruecrime.com/kim-grovesSponsors for this episode:This episode is brought to you by BetterHelp online therapy.

538. This week we talk to Jared Fishman about prosecuting the case of a post-Katrina police cover-up in New Orleans. Jared, a "former federal prosecutor and founder of Justice Innovation Lab tells the story of his struggle to unravel the cover-up of a police shooting, and subsequent incineration of the shooting victim, in Hurricane Katrina–era New Orleans... Fire on the Levee tells the story of a young idealistic prosecutor determined to bring the truth to light. The case would lead to major reforms in the New Orleans Police Department and ultimately change our understanding of race, policing and justice in post-Katrina New Orleans and beyond" (HarperCollins). This week in Louisiana history. September 1, 1715. King Louis XIV died. This week in New Orleans history. This week in Louisiana. On September 9. 1967, the New Orleans Saints played their first game in New Orleans and had their first ever preseason win at Tulane Stadium, defeating the Atlanta Falcons, 27-14. This win earned the Saints a 5-1 preseason record -- the best ever for a new expansion team. It also began the rivalry between the two teams. Press accounts from that game, including the Rome (Ga.) News-Tribune and Los Angeles Times, referred to it as the "Dixie Championship." In recent years, the game has sometimes been referred to as the "Southern Showdown." Postcards from Louisiana.

Episode 174 is the story of the alleged attempted bribe of Al Beauboeuf by the Garrison investigators. Beauboeuf was a close friend of David Ferrie who lived at Ferrie's apartment for a time and also accompanied Ferrie on the night of the assassination on the famous trip to the Wonderland Skating Rink in Houston. Garrison was convinced that Ferrie was not telling them the truth, and that he was part of the assassination plot. Garrison's team also believed that Beauboeuf's relationship with Ferrie was highly likely to have made him privy to critical facts about the conspiracy plot. So their interest in getting Beauboeuf to reveal the truth was quite high in the days following Ferrie's death. They would offer Beauboeuf $3,000 and the prospect of a job with an airline in exchange for his testimony only to have the offer secretly taped by Beauboeuf's defense attorney. The tape was circulated to various law enforcement authorities and Beauboeuf's attorney attempted to sell the tape to the media outlets, but had no success in do so. Of course, the tactics deployed by Garrison's team beg the core question of whether they committed a crime that was not prosecuted when they offered Beauboeuf money and the prospects of a job in exchange for his testimony should it "fill in the holes". It also begged the question of whether Beaubouf and his attorneys injected their own dirty tricks into this process in order to entangle Garrison and his team. Of course, if the allegations against Garrison's team were true and it was a bribe, then in a bigger sense, the logical question to follow was whether or not these investigative tactics or approach were used on more than one witness. Used in attempts to obtain the desired testimony that was necessary to convict Clay Shaw. Testimony that may have been falsely teased out if the allegations were true, and testimony that would have shown a pattern of misconduct by Garrison's investigator's when combined with what was alleged to have occurred with other highly publicized witnesses such as Perry Russo. The New Orleans Police Department examined the tape and performed an investigation, and concluded that a bribe had not been offered under the then existing code of conduct. Times were different than…it wasn't a crime to offer financial or other assistance to witnesses….the legal issue is where the line gets drawn….drawn in the times in which it occurred…and whether they crossed over that line…as investigators…will be up to you once you listen to more details. We remind the audience that whether we believe it was right or wrong ( based on today's rules and today's environment) to offer financial assistance to a witness is a completely different question… is to ask a completely different question and one that was somewhat irrelevant to a juror in 1967 given the laws in operation at that time. So we have to be careful about avoiding the tendency to use the wrong historical yardstick when evaluating what Garrison and his team were doing at the time to get at the truth and bring justice...even though such tactics have long been outlawed in today's environment. Aside from the legal aspect of the story, the real question is whether Garrison's team did it to get at the real truth…or whether they did it to simply get at the needed answer. The answer that was necessary to bury Clay Shaw at trial. As a member of the audience and a juror on the case, you get to decide all of that for yourself. Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it, were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very begi

When 57-year-old Bruce Cucchiara was gunned down in the parking lot of a New Orleans East apartment complex in 2012 his murder devastated his family and stumped law enforcement. The father and business man seemed to be well-liked and on a positive path as he coasted toward retirement. He was also worth $5 million in life insurance. For more than a year CounterClock's Delia D'Ambra has investigated the case and unraveled a web of bizarre information and circumstances about his life and those who benefitted from his death. The geographical and political setting of the murder has a dark history of corruption, fraud and violence and at every turn Delia discovers Bruce's complicated business life may have put him in the crosshairs of several bad actors. From allegations of a setup and ties to organized crime to Bruce being a key witness in a multi-million-dollar lawsuit to random robbery...each scenario is something the New Orleans Police Department can't rule out. Now, 11 years after his brutal slaying the questions still remain, who murdered Bruce? Why was he even in New Orleans East? Where is the murder weapon? Delia has discovered new information, tracked down witnesses and revealed secrets within the victim's closest circle that will blow this unsolved case wide open. CounterClock Season 5 is the most extensive and explosive investigation to-date with more than two dozen interviews and over a thousand documents that tell a stranger-than-fiction story about a very real crime.

Welcome back to the show everyone, on this episode we have a submission from Jessica. She talks about how she was visited by entities that communicated in clicks. Then we dive down the reptilian hole for a little bit. We follow a few encounters from a man that works for the New Orleans Police Department. One night he was taken from his home and packed into a train with many others. Once they reached their destination all hell breaks loose. The story also involves reptilians that can break trees in half with a single blow, to ones with wings. We also found a more recent news story that has some reptilian connections.
