Matthews told police the gun was not his. He said he found the gun in the ditch on Elmer Street and used it to rob the victim, the arrest document says.

Yeah ok……..

Perhaps LSU will put this on their recruiting brochure.

I graduated from LSU. I still love the university. But when the time comes I won't be pushing my children to attend LSU. While crime on/near a college campus can happen anywhere, it is becoming all too commonplace for stuff like this to happen on the fringe of campus...if not actually on LSU's campus.

The main college bar area is located in a literal slum and the line between the campus/college housing and the ghetto is becoming blurrier by the day. Worst of all, the City leadership doesn't care about LSU enough to take all steps necessary to ensure it remains a desirable university and part of the City. Being that LSU is arguably the biggest draw to BR that is alarming.

A 13 year old on a bicycle can get a "woman" to ride into the sunset while sitting ? on his handlebars (do bikes have seats over the back tire?)

He coulda been a salesman for almost anything.

I'm assuming that's EBR prison by the airport.
Can anyone verify?

ETA: Apparently this is the inside of jail in Alexandria, La.

Unfortunately he's probably already reproduced multiple times by 28.
