A 20 year old student named Caleb Wilson was killed by what is being decided as either manslaughter or murder. Wilson was a student at the Southern University in Baton Rouge, who was killed by being punched in the chest while pleading to join a fraternity. There was another death from this club back in 2017, and now they are facing possible civil penalties regarding Louisiana's anti-hazing laws.

Multiple people are facing criminal charges in the recent death of a 20-year-old student at Southern University in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, that evidently occurred amid a fraternity hazing, authorities have said.

Caleb McCray, 23, surrendered to police in Louisiana's capital city on Thursday on counts of manslaughter as well as criminal hazing in the 27 February death of 20-year-old Caleb Wilson, a mechanical engineering student at Southern as well as a member of its famed Human Jukebox marching band.

At a news conference on Friday, the Baton Rouge police chief, TJ Morse, said investigators had obtained warrants to arrest two more suspects in Wilson's killing and were making arrangements with their attorneys for them to turn themselves over for booking. Morse did not immediately identify that pair and said he could not immediately rule out obtaining more arrest warrants in the case.

Morse explained that investigators were treating Wilson's death as a manslaughter rather than a murder because it was unintentional yet resulted from criminal behavior - specifically, hazing. Morse said his agency has determined Wilson died after repeatedly being punched in the chest while undergoing the pledging process to join Southern's Omega Psi Phi fraternity.

Louisiana's legislature criminalized hazing after the 2017 death of Max Gruver, who had been forced to ingest a fatal level of alcohol while pledging to join the Phi Delta Theta fraternity at Louisiana State University, also in Baton Rouge.

Omega Psi Phi at Southern has been "ordered to cease all activities", according to the president of the historically Black school, Dennis Shields. The fraternity could face civil penalties under Louisiana's anti-hazing laws, the Baton Rouge district attorney, Hillar Moore said.

Shields said the school was subjecting an unspecified number of students to disciplinary proceedings, too.

"We got to do better, Baton Rouge," the city's mayor, Sid Edwards, said at Friday's news conference. Referring to Wilson, he added, "It's ... sad ... to lose such a promising young life. And I encourage all the young people out there to make better decisions."

According to Morse, Baton Rouge police learned of Wilson's death from medical staff at a local hospital where a group of young men had dropped him off. The group claimed Wilson had collapsed while playing basketball at a public park and then left before police arrived to investigate.

Officers nonetheless subsequently determined that Wilson - in his junior year at Southern - was mortally injured during a hazing ritual at a warehouse more than three miles away from the park, Morse said.

An arrest warrant affidavit reviewed by the Associated Press said McCray, who is described by Baton Rouge television station WBRZ as a Southern graduate and Omega Psi Phi member, and at least two other people wearing boxing gloves punched Wilson as well as eight other fraternity pledges. After McCray punched Wilson four times in the chest, Wilson "collapsed to the floor and became unresponsive", the affidavit alleges.

"Wilson appeared to suffer a seizure and lose control of his bodily function," the affidavit added. Wilson had a bruise on the right side of his chest.

Morse said McCray turned himself over to authorities as police investigating Wilson's death had interviewed more than a dozen people as well as executed multiple search warrants.

An attorney for McCray, Phillip Robinson, issued a statement to WBRZ arguing that police had not presented him with evidence that he believed was strong enough to support the allegations of criminal hazing and manslaughter against his client.

"We are committed to ensuring that all facts are properly examined and that due process is followed," Robinson's statement also said.

Manslaughter, under Louisiana law, can carry up to 40 years in prison. Criminal hazing can carry a maximum of five years' imprisonment.

Before attending Southern, Wilson graduated from Warren Easton high school in New Orleans and played trumpet for its marching band.

The Human Jukebox performed at the NFL Super Bowl played on 9 February in New Orleans.

Among those to mourn Wilson's death was the owner of New Orleans's two professional sports teams, Gayle Benson, for whom Wilson's father, Corey, worked security details as part of his job as a deputy with the sheriff's office of Jefferson parish, Louisiana.

"We mourn with [Wilson's father] ... on this senseless passing," Benson said in a statement reported on by multiple media outlets.

Wilson was honored on Thursday at a second line - traditionally, a musical and dancing celebration trailing closely behind a parade - held in his memory in New Orleans's Treme neighborhood. A friend of Wilson who attended the second line told the Guardian reporting partner WWL Louisiana that Wilson "had a good spirit".

"He was gifted, gifted with the trumpet," said the friend, Brandon Mitchell. "And he had a good heart."

Brad Sigmon, 67, chose firing squad over the two other state approved methods of execution, lethal injection or the electric chair.

Sigmon was convicted of the 2001 bludgeoning deaths of his ex-girlfriend’s parents. After their murders Sigmon kidnapped his ex-girlfriend at gunpoint, but she managed to escape.

Attorneys for Sigmon said he faced an “impossible” choice between “barbaric” methods used by the state for execution.

“Unless he elected lethal injection or the firing squad, he would die in South Carolina’s ancient electric chair, which would burn and cook him alive. But the alternative is just as monstrous,” Gerald “Bo” King, one of Sigmon’s attorneys, said in a news release after his client told the state his preferred method.

And though this is incredibly sad for NASA, it gives them more data and shows them a better landing spot for next time.

This past week at the joint sessions of congress. President Trump gave a special award to a little boy. His name was DJ Daniels, and who is 13 years old and battling brain cancer. When he first found out how much time he was, he was given 6 months to live out his life. That 6 months was over 6 years ago, and he is still moving strong. During the address, President Trump gave DJ his dream. To become a United States Border Patrol agent. One side of the section of congress went crazy for the little boy. Cheering, yelling, and screaming for him. Then, the other side was completely quiet. Not even giving the young kid a round of applause. This has caused a lot of controversy as to how far politics are going to go until both sides can come together.

The Donald Trump Adminsitration has officially agreed to drop a landmark enviromental justice case in Lousisiana's Cancer Alley region. This is a blow against the clean air advocates but a win for the Japanese petrochemical giant. The legal filings were made public on Friday morning. They revealed that Trump's Department of Justice agreed to dismiss a long-running lawsuit against the operators of a synthetic rubber plant in Reserve, Louisiana. Allegedly, largely responsible for the highest cancer risk rates that surround majority-Black neighborhoods in the U.S. In February 2023, under the Biden administration, the litigation was filed to substantially curb the plant's emissions of the pollutant called chloroprene. Which is likely a human carcinogen.

President Donald Trump has threatened new tariffs as soon as Friday on Canadian lumber and dairy products. It’s yet another twist in a serpentine trade policy that seems to shift on an hourly basis.

“Canada has been ripping us off for years on lumber and on dairy products,” Trump said in an Oval Office address Friday, citing Canada’s roughly 250% tariff on US dairy exports to the country. Trump said America would match those tariffs dollar-for-dollar. “We may do it as early as today, or we’ll wait until Monday or Tuesday,” Trump said. “We’re going to charge the same thing. It’s not fair. It never has been fair, and they’ve treated our farmers badly.”On Friday Trump said more “changes and adjustments” on tariffs should be expected in the future.

A day after offering Canada a one-month reprieve on punishing, virtually across-the-board 25% tariffs, President Donald Trump has threatened new tariffs as soon as Friday on Canadian lumber and dairy products. It’s yet another twist in a serpentine trade policy that seems to shift on an hourly basis. Trump’s announcement gave investors, businesses and consumers another strong dose of whiplash. Just one day earlier, on Thursday, Trump announced a one-month pause on all tariffs on Canada and Mexico on products that comply with the US-Mexico-Canada free trade treaty, known as the USMCA. That had, at least temporarily, given many industries, especially autos and agriculture, a major sigh of relief. On Friday Trump said more “changes and adjustments” on tariffs should be expected in the future.

President Donald Trump on Friday, after decrying Russia's latest strikes on Ukraine and threatening sanctions until it stopped attacking, also said he thought Vladimir Putin would be "generous" in peace talks and described Ukraine as "difficult." Answering questions from reporters in the Oval Office, Trump, while repeating that sanctions threat he posted earlier in the day, had positive words about the Russian president. "He wants to end the war and once ended, and I think he's going to be more generous than he has to be. And that's pretty good," Trump said.

Authorities are set to reveal more information about an investigation into the deaths of the actor Gene Hackman and his wife, Betsy Arakawa, whose partially mummified bodies were discovered last month at their home in New Mexico.

The Santa Fe county sheriff’s office has said it does not suspect foul play, and tests for carbon monoxide poisoning were negative.

The sheriff, Adan Mendoza, and state fire, health and forensics officials scheduled an afternoon news conference on Friday to provide updates on the case.

Mendoza has said the couple may have died up to two weeks before they were discovered on 26 February. Hackman’s pacemaker last showed activity on 17 February, nine days before maintenance and security workers showed up at the home and alerted police.
