    Read excerpt

    A Mansfield man has been charged with sexually abusing several children while doing missionary work in Haiti, according to newly unsealed court documents. Maylon Foshee, 23, an international missionary, engaged in sexual conduct with three Haitian boys during trips to the country from 2023 to 2025, FBI agents said. Investigators say Foshee worked closely with children while in Haiti, helping them attend school, and some would stay at Foshee’s home in the Caribbean country. All three of the boy

    Louisiana put 17-year-olds in adult jails. Local leaders say it’s costing taxpayers. (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Louisiana’s 2024 decision to treat all 17-year-olds as adults in courtrooms and jails has left them in a costly limbo that is straining local government budgets, parish leaders say. While the state may consider those 17-year-olds adults — meaning they can’t be housed in juvenile detention centers — federal regulations still treat them as minors, which means they can’t be housed within sight or sound of adult inmates under the Prison Rape Elimination Act.

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The special grand jury that has indicted several Baton Rouge officials on corruption charges will continue meeting for at least six more months as Attorney General Liz Murrill’s investigation into Baton Rouge corruption continues. The grand jury was originally empaneled in 2025 for one year. But a judge recently granted the Baton Rouge District Attorney’s Office request for an extension earlier this month. Though the grand jury was empaneled by District Attorney Hillar Moore’s office, it h

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Louisiana is on track to more than double the number of arrests for child sex crimes it made two years ago. The dramatic increase — from 303 arrests in 2024 to a projected 717 this year — coincides with an expansion in the network behind those investigations.
