Baton Rouge is a vibrant city! Here is some of the latest news:
BEIRUT — Lebanon’s prime minister stepped down from his job Monday in the wake of the catastrophic explosion in Beirut that has triggered public outrage, saying he has come to the conclusion that corruption in the country is “bigger than the state.”
The move risks opening the way to dragged-out negotiations over a new Cabinet amid urgent calls for reform. It follows a weekend of anti-government protests after the Aug. 4 explosion in Beirut’s port that decimated the facility and caused widespread destruction, killing at least 160 people and injuring about 6,000 others.
In a brief televised speech after three of his ministers resigned, Prime Minister Hassan Diab said he and his government were stepping down.
“May God protect Lebanon,” he said, repeating the last phrase three times. As he spoke, protesters demonstrated in the streets near parliament for a third straight day.
The moment typified Lebanon’s political dilemma. Since October, there have been mass demonstrations demanding the departure of the entire sectarian-based leadership over entrenched corruption, incompetence and mismanagement.
But the ruling oligarchy has held onto power for so long — since the end of the civil war in 1990 — that it is difficult to find a credible political figure untainted by connections to it.
Diab blamed corrupt politicians who preceded him for the “earthquake” that has hit Lebanon.
“They (the political class) should have been ashamed of themselves because their corruption is what has led to this disaster that had been hidden for seven years,” he added.
“I have discovered that corruption is bigger than the state and that the state is paralyzed by this (ruling) clique and cannot confront it or get rid of it,” said Diab, who was a professor at the American University of Beirut before he took the job.
After the catastrophe, Diab had sought to stay on for two months to organize new parliamentary elections and allow a map for reforms. But the pressure from within his own Cabinet proved to be too much. With the mass resignation, the call for early elections appears dead, so the same factions will debate on forming a new Cabinet.
Diab’s government was formed after his predecessor, Saad Hariri, stepped down in October in response to the demonstrations. It took months of bickering among the leadership factions before they settled on Diab.
His government, which was dominated by the Hezbollah militant group and its allies and seen as one-sided, was basically doomed from the start, tasked with meeting demands for reform but made up of all the factions that reformers want out.
Now the process must start again.
“I hope that the caretaking period will not be long because the country cannot take that. Lets hope a new government will be formed quickly,” Public Works Minister Michel Najjar said. “An effective government is the least we need to get out of this crisis.”
The pressure from the streets — and from French President Emmanuel Macron, who visited Beirut last week after the blast — could push the political factions to put aside their differences and form a unity government. Diab’s government largely excluded Hezbollah’s opponents, the Eurasia Group said in an analysis, adding that the factions may now see the need to carry out greater reform.
The group said a government of independent experts could be created, although Hezbollah is a main obstacle to that since it fears that would eventually lead to the group being forced out of the political system.
The weekend protests saw clashes with security forces firing tear gas at demonstrators.The explosion is believed to have been caused by a fire that ignited a 2,750-ton stockpile of highly volatile ammonium nitrate that had been stored at the port since 2013 with few safeguards despite numerous warnings of the danger.
The result was a disaster that the Lebanese people blame squarely on their leadership’s corruption and neglect. Losses from the explosion are estimated at $10 billion to $15 billion, with nearly 300,000 people left homeless.
On Monday, a French chemical expert working at the shattered port told The Associated Press that his team is working to secure at least 20 potentially dangerous chemical containers there after finding one that was leaking.
He also said there are flammable liquids in other containers as well as batteries and other products that could increase the risk of an explosion, describing huge containers tossed around the port by the powerful blast. The expert identified himself only as Lt. Anthony in accordance with French government policy.
The last decision by Diab’s government before its resignation was to refer the case of the explosion to the Supreme Judicial Council, which handles crimes infringing on Lebanon’s national security as well as political and state security crimes. The Supreme Judicial Council is Lebanon’s top judicial body.
A judge on Monday questioned the heads of the country’s security agencies. Public Prosecutor Ghassan El Khoury questioned Maj. Gen. Tony Saliba, the head of State Security, according to state-run National News Agency. It gave no further details, but other generals are scheduled to be questioned.
State Security had compiled a report about the dangers of storing the material at the port and sent a copy to the offices of the president and prime minister on July 20. The investigation is focused on how the ammonium nitrate came to be stored at the port and why nothing was done about it.
Najjar, the public works minister, said he learned about the material’s presence 24 hours before the blast, receiving a report about the material and holding a meeting with port officials before calling its chief, Hassan Korayetem.
“I wrote a report in the morning the explosion happened in the evening,” Najjar said. Asked why he only learned of it the day before, Najjar said, “I don’t know. Truly I don’t know.”
About 20 people have been detained after the blast, including the head of Lebanon’s customs department and his predecessor, as well as the head of the port. Dozens of people have been questioned, including two former Cabinet ministers, according to government officials.
On Sunday, world leaders and international organizations pledged nearly $300 million in emergency humanitarian aid to Beirut, but warned that no money for rebuilding the capital would be made available until Lebanese authorities commit themselves to the political and economic reforms demanded by the people.
BATON ROUGE- Court documents allege that former LSU running back Derrius Guice choked his girlfriend until she was unconscious in March.
The 23-year-old NFL player was released from the Washington Football Team on Aug. 7 following an arrest over allegations of domestic violence.
Guice choked the woman in his Ashburn home until she was unconscious. When she woke up, the former NFL player crying and tapping her, according to the charging documents filed in Loudoun County General District Court on Monday.
The alleged victim told authorities that Guice pushed and pulled her by her hair during the encounter.
Following the violent incident in March, the woman was in a hurry to catch a flight at BWI and did not look in the mirror until she arrived at a layover in Chicago, according to the charging documents. She took photos of her injuries in a restroom at the airport, authorities report.
The court documents also state that she suffered bruising to her neck with colored spots on it.
Guice's attorney, Peter D. Greenspun, issued a statement on the incident on Friday, saying investigators failed to fully examine the allegations that took place months ago and denounced the team for releasing Guice "without a single question as to what occurred."
"Derrius will defend these charges in court, where a full vetting of the allegations will take place, in contrast to actions by local law enforcement and the Washington Football Team that assumed the worst, directly contradicting every sense of fairness and due process,” Greenspun said.
In addition to the domestic violence report in March, Guice's girlfriend told authorities the football player pushed her to the ground in his bathroom in February, which she says caused an injury to her left thumbnail. This caused the nail to eventually fall off because of a popped blood vessel.
Court documents state that the woman took photographs of the injuries from the Feb. 14 and Guice was charged with assault and battery.
The woman told authorities that on April 17, Guice pushed her to the ground outside of his home, which caused injuries that were not described in the court documents. She also reported her phone was thrown into the street and was shattered. She photographed her injuries but they were not described, according to the court documents.
Guice was drafted in the second round of the 2018 NFL draft after the Baton Rouge native starred in his hometown at LSU. He was set to begin his third NFL season before his arrest and release from the team on Friday, Aug. 7.
Washington Football coach Ron Rivera said it was his decision to immediately remove Guice from the team, saying it was based on what Rivera believed was in the best interest of the team.
“Anytime you have to release a young, talented football player, it’s always a tough decision,” Rivera said in a video conference with reporters. “But this type of circumstance, this type of situation, we take those allegations very, very seriously, and we had to make the decision going forward.”
Guice turned himself in at the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center on Friday shortly after 5 p.m. and was charged with one count of felony strangulation, three counts of assault and battery, and one count of destruction of property.
Just before 7:30 p.m., Guice was handcuffed in the parking lot before being let inside. He was later released on a $10,000 bond.
His arrest came after three incidents were reported to the Montgomery County Police Department in Maryland, where the alleged victim lives, the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office reports. The sheriff's office learned of the accusations on July 22 and the investigation was coordinated by officials in both Loudoun and Montgomery counties.
Washington said it learned of the allegations on Thursday and immediately contacted the NFL. Team officials mat with Guice and told him he was excused from the team while the club investigated the situation.
Rivera said Monday that "from what was learned later on, we made a decision" to release Guice.
“And if it was the right decision, we will benefit from it, and if it’s not, it will be on me,” Rivera said. “I will take full responsibility as we go forward to try and make sure we do things the right way, and we’ll go from there.”
Guice's first hearing is scheduled for Aug. 28.BATON ROUGE - LSU further detailed its campus policies for the fall semester Monday, saying anyone who contracts the coronavirus will need to self-isolate for at least 10 days.
The rule was outlined in a new directive issued Monday by University President Thomas Galligan, along with previously announced guidelines for wearing masks on campus.
According to the directive, anyone on campus who tests positive for COVID-19 must self-isolate for at least 10 days. Anyone who's symptomatic must go at least 10 days without showing symptoms and go 24 hours without a fever.
LSU is currently scheduled to return to campus Aug. 24 and will transition to online-only classes after Thanksgiving break.

BATON ROUGE - A handful of LSU fraternity and sorority houses were broken into over the weekend, according to university officials.
An LSU spokesperson tells WBRZ the burglaries targeted at least three different houses: Kappa Delta, Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Acacia. It's unclear if anything was stolen.
The university confirmed police were investigating the incidents but would say little else about the break-ins.
