Last year, the Louisiana’s auditor began investigating an orphan well program. Now, new details in a 170 page report reveal more about a questionable loan to a state official and his wife on Baton Rouge Metro Council, and a company “with many red flags.” theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/lo…

One of the escaped New Orleans jail detainees was actually a state inmate who was supposed to be there temporarily. He was awaiting transport to a state prison. A repeat offender and accused murderer, he remains at large. nola.com/news/new-orlea…

Just how chaotic was the New Orleans jail before May's escape? Guards are attacked, spit on, harassed, etc. at a rate of 3x a week. Fewer than 5% of daily cell-by-cell checks are actually done. Inmates jam cell locks, are "emboldened" to defy security. nola.com/news/new-orlea…
