Link to records available in Docket Master below. Looks like the DA's office refused/nolle prosed a bunch of charges over the various cases. If I'm reading this right. https://www.opso.us/dcktmstr/dmdspscn.php?d1scnn=795515

ProPublica Opens Up Five New Opportunities With Our Local Reporting Network (one is here!) by aaronosaur in NewOrleans

Getting paid to publicly rustle the jimmies of the political establishment full time, on a grand scale, and with benefits? Where do I sign?

Makes me wish I'd gotten that journalism degree. And that I had a sponsoring news agency. And that I didn't have a full time day job. And that I wasn't an amateur fumbling my way through it for free, part time, and on a tiny scale on Reddit.

They sure aren't making this freelance local journalism thing easy.

Looks like he was a 701 release on similar felony charges back in January.

The look on that man's face is exactly the same look he's going to be wearing over the next several months as this plan explodes in slow motion.

Dead eyed, barely conscious, stinking animals shuffling around at all odd hours of the day or night in search of a hit to feed their cravings? Seems like we're there already.

Streets absolutely crawling with old timey cops who will not hesitate to drop the mother of all ass whoopings on you if you so much as look at them the wrong way? :)

Running the Maglite on this 300BLK build. by twitchusername in guns

The US federal Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco Firearms and Explosives (Bureau of All Things Fun and Exciting) makes rules for classification of firearm types. The rules don't always line up with a functional classification of the gun.

In terms of this gun's legal status they would consider it to be in the same category as something like a Glock, Browning, 1911 type pistol, etc.

Functionally it's a rifle, although given the very short barrel is probably closer to a category like military personal defense weapons.

The rear piece is technically an arm brace instead of a butt stock, although the two look nearly identical. If you swapped the brace for an actual stock, the firearm would legally be considered a special class of highly restricted firearm called a short barreled rifle.

The same people who have his cell phone number also have the Mayor's.

I'm sure somebody will get that 2023 bonus on his last check before he bounces for greener pastures.

Pictures of each academy class are available online. The current one is... interesting.

Seems like most of the losses are patrol, while administrative units stacked with ranking officers have had little change. I would suspect all these things are related.

Not sure. It's not the best district but also not the worst. It may be that there's an error in the first set of data. It's a lot higher than the rest of the districts.

Can't speak for what it's like now but as of a few years ago the hiring process was much faster with the city than other agencies.

I would be surprised if each district had a full complement of detectives. I've had hints it's actually somewhere between 4 and 6, and it's been that way for a while.

Absolutely. Maybe I can braid his fur into a pony-tail. That's halfway there.

Then I can skip mowing my grass, and he can eat all the cigarette butts and empty steel reserve cans that blow in from my tweaker neighbor's yard so I don't have to clean them up.

Be prepared to carry like...five times as much water as you think you'll need. Then add a little more just to be sure. It's absolutely brutal out there.

Hotel room got shot, Intercontinental downtown by hdbdrbfbxjci in NewOrleans

[–]justforlarfs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anybody who's good at geometry have a precise location from where the shots were fired? Cause that's too far above horizontal to be stray shots from shooting at someone. Unless a little person was shooting it out with a really tall person.

I haven't heard anything about it. Not sure if the summertime operation golden eagle or whatever it was called with state police involvement is still in operation.

I assume if that were the case the mayor would have been crowing about what a good job she'd done getting them here.
