CAOne Fails To Rid Itself From The Stench Of Stan "Pampy" Barre

Judge Kern Reese sided with convicted felon, Stan "Pampy" Barre when he refused to grant CAOne's request to have Barre ousted due to a "change in control" clause in the company's contract.

Barbara Barre, the convicted felon's partner of 42 years, is now in charge. As a result, the judge sees her as simply a "mantle of Caesar" and not a "change in control". Since the judge sees her as a "mantle of Caesar", he concluded that there was no "change in control" since Barbara will act on behalf of her convicted hubby.
Of course the judge wants to protect the convicted felon's interest.

Let's hope CAOne win their appeal. The citizens of New Orleans are counting on that.

Judge Sets Antoinette Frank's Execution Date

Although there is speculation that his ruling won't stand, let's hope it is just speculation.

Orleans Parish Judge Frank Marullo today signed a death warrant for convicted killer Antoinette Frank, the former police officer sentenced to die by lethal injection for the 1995 triple murder at a local Vietnamese restaurant.

Marullo, acting on his own, ordered the state of Louisiana to execute Frank on July 15, after 6 p.m., on the lethal injection table located at the state penitentiary at Angola.

Where Are All The Protesters?

It seems as if not too many people were interested:

A group of around 20 protesters waving signs and chanting slogans against the North American Leaders' Summit pressed against NOPD barricades in front of the W Hotel on Poydras Street as President Bush's caravan rode by Monday morning.

The protesters repeatedly recited the Pledge of Allegiance to an American flag they were carrying, loudly repeating the pledge as Bush passed. Across Poydras Street, in front of the Loews Hotel, tourists stood in the street to see the president drive by at around 11:00 am.
