NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Shooting deaths of law enforcement officers spiked 78 percent in the first half of 2016 compared to last year, including an alarming increase in ambush-style assaults like the ones that killed eight officers in Dallas and Baton Rouge, according to a report released Wednesday. However, data from the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund shows that firearms-related deaths of officers in the line of duty are still lower than they were during previ-

tional session created to be a pro-active step in ensuring Lafourche Parish residents’ and officers’ peace of mind and safety. Lafourche Parish Sheriff Craig Webre, LPSO Major Renee Brinkley, Golden Meadow Police Department Chief Reggie Pitre, and Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Richard agreed to meet with a control group comprised of local citizens. The meeting was organized by Larose resident Devin Lewis. Lewis, the son of a retired police officer, pooled an audience of people consisting of various races, socioeconomic statuses, education levels and ages who all had the common goal of keeping Lafourche Parish safe and developing a positive rapport between community members and police officers. “We have the notion that just because of where we live, the things we see in the news won’t happen to us. Through social media, I’m seeing that people are entrenched on their prospective sides and are worried about our community,” said Lewis. See Sheriff Page 3-A

ous decades like the 1970s. Thirty-two officers died in firearms-related incidents so far this year including 14 that were ambush-style attacks, according to the report. During the same period last year, 18 officers were shot and killed in the line of duty including three that were considered ambush attacks. “That’s a very alarming, shocking increase in the number of officers who are being literally assassinated because of the uniform they wear and the job that they do,” said Craig W. Floyd, who heads the organization.

vamped the governance of recreation for all of Lafourche at its July 26 meeting. By a 7-0 vote, (Bo Melvin and James Bourgeois were absent), the Council did away with the seven traditional recreational districts which were created during the Police Jury years and created one advisory board for the entire parish. In addition, four of the districts which have dedicated millages, Lockport, Bayou Blue, Raceland and Gheens, will each have a five-member board that reports to the parish. Monies generated by the four taxing districts will stay within the local districts. “As the millages expire over the next 8 years, residents will get a tax break and the parish will absorb the districts and any property they own,” said Community Services Director Reggie Bagala. Day to day operation of each district will stay the same, but major projects would have to come before the Council for approval. Bagala said having recreation under one “umbrella”, with a parish board to govern it, would streamline services and save money because the new board could seek parishwide contracts for necessities like grass cutting, trash pickup and insurance. All recreation areas will be overseen by a nine-member advisory board made up of one member from each council district. See Council Page 3-A

Council
From 1-A
Over the next 60 days, the board will be tasked with electing its own chairman, vice-chairman and secretary. It will also be responsible for creating a formula for budgeting the $1.6 million in taxes which is collected annually throughout the parish for recreation. During the meeting, Council Clerk Carleen Babin read a legal opinion requested by Recreation District #2 (Raceland) Board Chairman Danny Mayet which answered the question of the parish’s legal standing in abolishing district boards without state approval. Home Rule governments are not governed by the state and therefore have the power to create and abolish boards without state approval, according to District Attorney Cam Morvant. Councilwoman Luci Sposito questioned several vague areas of the new system, namely what is considered a “major” project, how the advisory board will represent a non-millage district, and what the budget formula will look like. Councilman Corey Perrillioux was worried about the kids whose recreational activities could possibly be affected by change. “Everyone should have the same opportunities. If we’re streamlining for that reason … good. But if we have a rocky four or five years, it’s not fair. I don’t want to put kids in jeopardy because we voted on something we know nothing about,” he stated. Councilman Daniel Lorraine, who sponsored
A Law Firm Focused On Maritime Law
the ordinances, asked for patience. “Don’t condemn it before we start. Give it a chance. We are not taking anything from anybody,” he said. Parish President Jimmy Cantrelle called the change a “great thing”. “A parishwide millage will do more for the kids. Right now we are so limited, but our main goal is to improve things for the kids to give them the advantages that kids in other parishes have,” he said. In a press release, Cantrelle called the change a “winner for all of the parish because, once completed, it will lead to cost savings for the taxpayers and more recreation opportunity for our children and grandchildren.”
Sheriff
From 1-A
Various questions were posed to the panel of officials so that they could explain police procedures and various other aspects of law enforcement. The panel was asked to discuss what causes an officer to deem an individual aggressive or combative. “It, of course, depends on the situation,” said Sheriff Webre. “If we give an order to get out of the vehicle and they don’t, that is non-compliance. If we try to handcuff someone and they fight us, that is non-compliance.” The panel agreed that staying calm, mutual respect and listening to the officers’ orders were the best ways to keep the situation from escalating. The Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office is an accredited agency so every
response to resistance (the LPSO’s wording for use of force) is reviewed after the situation is handled. Then if action is needed, or more training is needed for the officer, it is done based on the situation that was at hand. Every case, situation, etc. is logged into a database for documentation. “If you don’t work for the Sheriff’s office, you may not realize the things we train and re-train our officers on,” said Major Brinkley. “We need to not accept the current climate. For every bad story you here, there are 1,000 good ones that you never hear about.” When asked how an officer decides to use a gun, pepper spray or tasers, Chief Pitre said that the response to resistance training entitles the officer to be one level above what they are being countered with. “We do not want to use lethal force. That is the last thing we want to do,” said Pitre. According to both the Sheriff and Chief Pitre, when pulled over for a traffic violation, the perpetrator should generally get out of the car, calmly with hands in plain sight. Then, you should follow the police officer’s order of what to do next. The LPSO is in the process of formalizing a policy regarding people with a conceal and carry permit so the general public will know what to expect when pulled over. “The key is letting the officer know that you have a conceal, carry license and a gun and keep your hands in plain sight while waiting for the officer’s instructions on how he or she will disarm you,” said Webre. Webre went on to state that since the Dallas and Baton Rouge officer murders, he now requires two officers to respond to calls that are tense situations such as domestic abuse, violent crimes, etc. “Some people may think that we are being more aggressive when they see two officers now in a patrol unit. But we are doing this to keep our officers safe,” said Brinkley. An audience member stated that when he was a child, police officers were like super heroes. He went on to say that now, he often hears parents say things like, “If you don’t listen I’m gonna call the police on you.” “In the 1980s, crime was at its highest. The president put thousands more officers in the streets and outreach programs like D.A.R.E., McGruff the Crime Dog, etc., were developed,” said Webre. “Kids were having positive interactions with police officers and it helped to boost moral. Then came the September 11 attacks.” “The nation’s focus came from Homeland Security and all of those outreach programs were put on the back burner. In many major cities, the police forces got caught up in the threat of terrorism and turned away from positive examples, community relations, etc.,” said Webre. “We all need to work on de-escalation and improving our society. This begins in our homes, churches and social situations where we can share with one another and explain the things we’ve discussed at this meeting tonight,” said A.D.A. Richard. “We need to correct misperceptions.” All involved parties at the meeting were open to the idea of doing a larger scale meeting in the future to explain some of the misconceptions about law enforcement and other agencies within our parish. “We need to be the voice and let people know in the hood, on the streets, in our community that police officers aren’t out to get them. They’re here to enforce the law and we all have to do our part to keep our community safe,” said Lewis.
“In Lafourche, all of our various agencies work together. Citizens and officers need to have mutual respect so things can go smoothly. Even if you messed up and you’re going to be arrested for doing something wrong, it’s not the end of the road. Don’t make the situation worse for yourself. We’re not out to get you; we’re just doing our job and enforcing the law. We’re people too,” said Pitre. A great way to introduce children and community members to the positive side of law enforcement is to attend a Night Out Against Crime block party. Lafourche will celebrate with events on Tuesday, August 2 from 6 – 9 p.m. and will feature food, fun, and games. Visit www.LPSO.net and the LPSO facebook page where you can view a share-able graphic with all area Night Out locations.
Deaths
From 1-A
The organization usually releases a mid-year report tracking incidents for the first six months but decided to extend the period due to the July attacks in Dallas and Baton Rouge against police officers. So the report goes from the beginning of January to July 20 and compares it to the same period last year. On their website, the organization also keeps a running tally of officers who died in the line of duty. Those figures through July 26 show that 33 officers have been shot and killed so far this year. The report comes at a time of heightened tension between communities across the country and police officers. Two police officers and one sheriff’s deputy were shot and killed during an ambush on July 17 in Baton Rouge by a black gunman who was later killed by re-

sponding officers. In Dallas, a black gunman opened fire on police during a July 7 protest against recent police shootings of black suspects; the gunman killed five officers before being killed by authorities. A total of 67 officers have died in the line of duty so far in 2016, according to the report. That figure also includes officers who died in traffic accidents, fatal falls or airplane crashes. Texas leads the nation in the number of law enforcement officers who died in the line of duty with 14 deaths so far this year, including the five recent slayings in Dallas. Louisiana, where three officers were shot and killed in Baton Rouge, ranked second with a total of seven officers who died
in the line of duty. Despite the recent high-profile shootings of police, the average number of officers shot and killed on the job is significantly lower than in previous decades. Floyd said during the 1970s, there was an average of 127 officers shot and killed yearly; during the last ten years through 2015, the average number shot and killed is 52. He cited the reduction in violent crime in recent decades and said officers have benefited from the widespread introduction of body armor and improved trauma care if they do get shot. But he noted a worrying increase in recent years in anti-police and anti-government sentiment. ___

It’s so hot in New York that manure is bursting into flames
THROOP, N.Y. (AP) — How hot is it in upstate New York? So hot that horse manure is bursting into flames. The state Department of Environmental Conservation says it received multiple complaints July 5 about the smell and smoke emanating from a burning pile of horse manure at a property in the town of Throop, in the Finger Lakes region 20 miles west of Syracuse. The responding officer learned that the owners of a horse stable had been storing the manure in large piles that frequently spontaneously combusted in the excessive heat and dry conditions. DEC officials say a shift in the prevailing winds carried the odor of burning manure into the neighbors’ windows. It took three local fire departments two hours to douse the burning manure. ________________

Breaux Bridge Catholic priest arrested on child porn charges
LAFAYETTE, La. (AP) — A Catholic priest was arrested Wednesday after investigators found more than 500 computer images of child pornography, state police said. The arrest of the Rev. Felix David Broussard, 50, was announced by state police and the Diocese of Lafayette. A state police news release said Broussard faces 500 counts of pornography involving juveniles. Broussard was taken to the St. Martin Parish jail, where he was released on $25,000 bond. It was unclear whether he has a lawyer who would comment on his behalf. The diocese said Broussard was placed on administrative leave. He had been serving the church parish of St. Bernard in Breaux Bridge. The diocese said it was cooperating in the investigation. The state police news release said the investigation was launched this month after they received complaints that a computer to which Broussard had access contained images “indicative of child pornography.” The location of the computer was not made clear. Trooper Brooks David declined to provide that detail. He said the results of the investigation will be turned over to the local district attorney, who will decide what information to release. ________________

Survivors of 3 slain Baton Rouge officers to get $250,000
BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Families of the three law enforcement officers killed in a lone gunman’s ambush in Baton Rouge are each due to receive $250,000 in state survivor benefits. A four-member state board held a special meeting Wednesday to preliminarily approve the payments, aiming to hasten the preparation of paper-
5-A
work needed for final approval, Attorney General Jeff Landry said. Each child of an officer is eligible for an additional $25,000. Baton Rouge police officers Matthew Gerald and Montrell Jackson and sheriff’s deputy Brad Garafola were slain on July 17 before a SWAT officer’s long-range bullet killed the gunman. Authorities said he came from Kansas City, Missouri to target police officers.
Detectives asking for public’s assistance as investigation into Raceland man’s death continues
Detectives are asking for the public’s assistance as they continue their investigation into the shooting death of 23-year-old Chad Turner of Raceland. Turner’s body was discovered in Thibodaux on March 23, 2016. Turner was last seen around 9 p.m. on Sunday, March 20, when he left a residence in the Marydale community. After that, investigators learned, he made stops in Terrebonne Parish and the Thibodaux area. On Tuesday, March 22, deputies with the Assumption Parish Sheriff’s Office found the vehicle in which Turner was traveling had been burned and abandoned near a field just off LA Highway 308 in Napoleonville. Turner’s body was discovered the following day in a canal on private property in the 1000 block of Brule Guillot Road in Thibodaux, and detectives discovered he had been shot. No further details regarding the investigation are available at this time.

Old man and a princess
An old guy was fishing one afternoon when he noticed a frog sitting next to him. The frog said, “Mister, I’ve had a spell cast on me. If you’ll kiss me, I’ll turn into a beautiful princess and I’ll make you happy for the rest of your life.” The old guy smiled, picked up the frog, and put it in his pocket. After a while, he looked into his pocket to see how the frog was doing. The frog said again, “Mister, I’ve had a spell cast on me. If you’ll kiss
me, I’ll turn into a beautiful princess and I’ll make you happy for the rest of your life.” The guy just smiled and kept on fishing. When he checked on the frog again, it said, “What’s wrong with you, fella? I said I’ve been bewitched. Just kiss me and I’ll turn back into a beautiful princess and make you the happiest man on earth for the rest of your life!” The old guy just smiled and said, “Frog, I’m sorry to tell you this, but at my age, I’d rather have a talking frog than a beautiful princess!”

What a Life!
By: Rev. Wilmer L. Todd Looking for God in all the wrong places
The following article is entitled “Within” by Kristin Niedbala. With her permission I would like to share her insight with you. St. Augustine remains one of the greatest saints in the history of the Catholic Church. He was born in a small town in Northern Africa, merely 300 after Jesus’ death. After leaving home at the age of 17, Augustine lived a narcissistic lifestyle for the next 14 years – he chased pagan philosophy, philandering his way through the schools of Europe, even fathering his own child. Augustine embodied all that is the story of the Prodigal Son. However, through the intercession of his mother Monica, Augustine had a life-changing conversion in his early 30’s. He went on to be one of the greatest theologians and bishops of the past 2,000 years. Augustine chronicled his conversion in his great work, “Confessions.” There he writes: “Late have I loved you, O Beauty ever ancient, ever new, late have I loved you! You were within me, but I was without, and it was there that I searched for you . . . You

called, you shouted, and you broke through my deafness. You flashed, you shone, and you dispelled my blindness . . . I have tasted you, now I hunger and thirst for more. You touched me, and I burned for your peace.” Augustine tells us that his whole life was focused on exterior things. His entire focal point of life was on things outside him – the “world,” the pursuit of pleasure, the relentless thirst for “more.” Yet, God was within nudging at his heart, inviting him into the very peace for which he longed. It was within Augustine that he found God speaking to him. Writer and retreat director Fr. Timothy Gallagher is famous for asking us, “When you look at the culture that you and I live in, do you think most people live within or without?” We, like Augustine, live in a world frenetically consumed with the outside. From iPods to texting to smart phones, we are constantly tempted to occupy our time doing something, listening to something, or distracting ourselves with something. Pope Benedict XVI once said, “The world in its frenetic activism often loses its direction. Its action and capacities become destructive if they lack the power of prayer, from which the waters of life irrigate the arid land.” Life feels frenetic when we only live from without. If we only live from without, we get tired, lives grow ever empty, and life “loses its direction.”

Additionally, the Town of Lockport is hosting its own block party at the Holy Savior Ball Park at 6 p.m., which will include hotdogs and popcorn, refreshments, and a family movie. The Lockport Volunteer Fire Dept. will cook fresh kettle corn while Rock Lafourche and Geaux Greate will host a rock painting event beginning at 6:30 p.m. Any citizen who has planned a block party in Lafourche Parish for Night Out Against Crime that is NOT on this list, please contact Lieutenant Valerie Martinez at (985) 449-4477 or via email at valerie-martinez@lpso.net. National Night Out is a yearlong community building campaign designed to heighten crime prevention awareness, generate support and participation in local anticrime programs, strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships, and send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back. Approximately 38 million people from more than 16,000 communities across the nation participate in the annual event. The first National Night Out took place on August 7, 1984 and was introduced by the National Association of Town Watch which continues to spearhead the event today.

I am young and willing to learn and work to keep this town, which we call home, the best it can be. I ask you to please go out and exercise your right to vote on November 8, and please consider voting for me as a member of your Town Council.
When you look at Augustine’s words, ask yourself, “Do you live more within or without?” We, like Augustine, yearn for God. We are constantly searching for God. In the act of creation, God calls every being from nothingness into existence. We are made after the image and likeness of our Creator, and we retain that desire for the one who calls us into existence. We want God and God, just like he did with Augustine, is calling us from within. What would have happened if Augustine would not have paid attention to the stirring within him? What would have happened if the first Apostles would not have paid attention to the longings “for more” within them?
What would have happened in my life if I had not listened to the voice of God within me? Slow down today. Turn off the radio. Don’t turn on the TV. Shut off the com-
puter. In the quiet, listen to the voice within. How is God calling you? Deep within, very deep within, God is within you. What are the things that challenge you to live
