Let’s be clear what’s happening here. The Monistere Brothers are shaking down local businesses like Storyville and threatening them with lawsuits if the local merchants continue to sell “Who Dat” merchandise.
They are essentially claiming something that they do not own and attempting to prevent anyone else from making money from the phrase “Who Dat.” ~ read more
hotel heiress paris hilton appeared in a clark county, nevada courtroom this morning to plead guilty to cocaine possession and obstructing justice by lying to a police officer.Standing before Justice of the Peace Joe Bonaventure, Hilton admitted that both 0.8 grams of cocaine and the Chanel handbag where it was found were hers and said she was guilty of misdemeanor drug possession and misdemeanor obstructing an officer.
meanwhile, here in louisiana -- the most corrupt state in the nation -- someone from a prominent family who ran over and killed three people -- supposedly while intoxicated, in what some consider one of the most gruesome crime/accident scenes in recent memory -- can stand before a judge and not have to say one word to give account of himself or apologize while being sentenced under the terms of a very plum plea bargain.
"I was in possession of cocaine," Hilton said in a meek voice. She then told Bonaventure that she had lied to a Las Vegas police lieutenant when she told him the handbag wasn't hers. ~ read more
imagine what the really wealthy, patrician families here in louisiana are getting away with.
kudos to the clark county, nevada district attorney for doing his job.

BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB) - Shoppers enjoying a Sunday afternoon inside the Mall of Louisiana got a scare after a mid-day robbery caused chaos inside the shopping center.
Crowds rushed out of the mall after initial reports indicated shots were fired. Authorities later confirmed shots had not been fired. Rather, two masked thieves had robbed a jewelry stand inside the mall.
The sound people mistook for gunshots was breaking glass at the first floor jewelry kiosk.~ read more

Allocute generally means to formally declare something...In the legal context, it refers to stating specifically and in detail one's actions and motices, [sic] often in relation to commission of a crime.louisiana style allocution, the loony looziana supreme court teaches us, for example in the unpublished appendix to opinion in state of louisiana v ricky joseph langley, (a capital case) pages 41 - 42, that the right of allocution is a defendants right at the sentencing hearing.
In most United States jurisdictions a criminal defendant is allowed the opportunity before sentencing to offer an explanation for the crime through allocution.
Some jurisdictions provide that this is an absolute right for all defendants, without which, a sentence may be overturned, and a new sentencing hearing must be held.
Allocution is sometimes required of a defendant who pleads guilty to a crime in a plea bargain in exchange for a reduced sentence.
In such cases, allocution is intended to provide closure for victims or their families by removing any doubt as to the exact nature of the defendant's guilt in the crime. ~ source
“right of allocution has normally been reserved to a defendant addressing the sentencing judge.”in louisiana there is nothing to stop the district attorney from asking for or requiring a criminal to allocute to his or her crime and give account of himself. especially... especially, in exchange for when a criminal receives such a plum plea bargain as it appears happened in mr. brouillette's case.

He was the only photojournalist to document the entire trial in the murder of Emmett Till, and he was there in Room 306 of the Lorraine Hotel, Dr. King’s room, on the night he was assassinated.

Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto him, Master, thus saying thou reproachest us also.
And he said, Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! for ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.
Woe unto you! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchres.
Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute:
That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;
From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, which perished between the altar and the temple: verily I say unto you, It shall be required of this generation.
Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered. ~ jesus christ at saint luke chapter eleven
