Mandeville man guilty on 500 counts of child porn
MANDEVILLE, La. (WGNO) — A Mandeville man was convicted on May 15 following an investigation that led to him being charged with 500 counts of pornography involving juveniles.
According to the 22nd Judicial District Court, the Louisiana Bureau of Investigation received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children that pornographic images of children were being uploaded through a Tumblr account at a particular IP address.

Officials say the IP address was linked to the Mandeville home of 38-year-old Jason Quinn Lee, which agents then executed a search warrant on. During the search, Lee was questioned and admitted to using a cloud-based storage site out of New Zealand to store the child sexual abuse material.
Investigators say a 'vast' amount of the images and videos showed adults in sexual acts with children ranging from newborns to preteens. Others showed young children in explicit poses which often involved bondage.
450 of the counts against him involved children under age 13, of which each one yields a sentence of 10 to 40 years in prison. The remaining 50 counts each carry a sentence of five to 20 years in prison. Sentencing is scheduled for July 28.Trump's ban on Harvard foreign students may come at a hefty price to the economy

Pr. George's police chief is a finalist for a job in Phoenix
The city of Phoenix said Wednesday that Prince George's County Police Chief Malik Aziz is a finalist in its nationwide search for someone to lead the police department in Arizona's largest city. The news circulated among Aziz's officers in Maryland, many of whom learned of the chief's job search from a Phoenix news release announcing him as one of three finalists. The Prince George's County Police Department declined to comment. The news of Aziz's potential departure comes as Aisha N. Braveboy (D) prepares to take over as Prince George's County executive on Juneteenth. Braveboy, who has served as state's attorney since 2019, was elected to the role in early June after the job was vacated mid-term by Angela Alsobrooks (D), now a U.S. senator. It is not uncommon for new county executives to bring in their own Cabinet members or hire new people into key leadership roles. As the top law enforcement officials in Prince George's County, Braveboy and Aziz worked alongside each other since 2021, when he was hired to reform the police department amid nationwide calls for racial justice and police accountability. 'As states attorney my office had a good working relationship with Chief Aziz,' Braveboy said in a statement Wednesday. 'I wish him the best.' Acting county executive Tara Jackson said in a statement that Aziz 'has done an outstanding job leading our police department through challenging times.' At a recent news conference, Aziz touted an overall decrease in crime, with total crime down 16 percent compared with this time last year. His annual summer crime initiative is in full swing, which focuses on crime reduction and community engagement during the summer months. A Texas native, Aziz came to Maryland after decades in law enforcement in Dallas, where he garnered a national reputation as an advocate for community policing and reform. He had served as the national chair of the National Black Police Association and worked on President Barack Obama's task force on 21st century policing in 2015. He advocated for the Justice Department to collect annual demographic statistics from all police agencies to hold them accountable for diversifying their command ranks, according to the task force's final report. Alsobrooks hired Aziz in March 2021 and instructed him to overhaul a department that has long had a contentious relationship with county residents. He took over as the nation and the county were grappling with the Black Lives Matter movement and widespread calls for reform. He vowed to build a strong relationship with reform advocates and community partners. Tamara McKinney, vice president of the Heels Off Gloves On Boxing Foundation, said Aziz once showed up to a boxing ring to support the organization. When he noticed a young boxer was without boxing shoes, he found a sponsor to assist the group. They were able to buy 16 to 18 pairs of shoes for boxers who couldn't afford the equipment, McKinney said. 'I think he made a concerted effort to change the mind of the community about having such a negative outlook on police,' McKinney said. Before coming to Prince George's, Aziz had been a finalist for chief positions in cities across the country, including Milwaukee, Miami and his hometown of Dallas, where he last served as deputy chief of the Dallas Police Department. Phoenix officials said the three finalists will speak at a public forum on Monday. City officials said they hope to announce the new chief in July.

Peninsula man honors son killed in line of duty by helping underserved youth
New East Palo Alto sports field opens to honor officer killed in line of duty New East Palo Alto sports field opens to honor officer killed in line of duty New East Palo Alto sports field opens to honor officer killed in line of duty A Peninsula man has turned his grief into a catalyst for good. After his police officer son was killed nearly 20 years ago in the line of duty, he created a positive outlet for the community's youth. When Dr. Frank Merrill looks onto an East Palo Alto field, he sees more than afternoon rugby practice. "The dream for us was to make a difference, to give kids an opportunity they didn't have," he said. That dream came out of a nightmare. His step-son, East Palo Alto police officer Rich May, was shot to death by a parolee in 2006. During the trial, the defense argued that the lack of positive activities for youth contributed to the shooter's criminal history. After sentencing, Merrill got to thinking about what he could do for underserved young people. "I can't solve world hunger. I can't solve world peace. I can't change families. I can't do a lot of things, but I can given them a field to play on," said the retired veterinarian. So Merrill and his late wife, Clarice, set out to build a field to create something positive and honor Rich May, who was passionate about serving kids in the Police Activities League. "He was never one of those people who would try to fight the world. He was going to make it a better place by being amenable to working with people," Merrill said. The state-of-the-art Rich May Memorial Field opened in 2015. The Merrills and their supporters raised $2 million, mostly in private donations, and overcame years of obstacles. "When the lights came up, that was the most glorious thing I'd seen in years and years and years," Merrill recalled. Today, 700 young people use the field each day. In fact, it's so well-used that the Rich May Foundation, which Merrill started in 2017, is trying to raise a million dollars to replace the turf on the field. Under a unique operating agreement, the Rich May Foundation manages the field that is owned by the St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church and Ravenswood School District. Rich May Field is home to the East Palo Alto Razorhawks Rugby Club. The club's grateful for the affordable rental fee, at $50 an hour, a fraction of the going rate. Coach Vaea Sanft says having a home base is a win for membership. "The last three years has doubled every year," Sanft said. "Now to have a field we can call our own: It's a blessing for these kids, and we really appreciate it." East Palo Alto Police Chief Jeff Liu, who was a good friend of Rich May, says the community also scores in crime prevention. Enriching activities on the field help create a community of good citizens. "It took a community to bring this together, and Frank was a catalyst behind that. He was the inspiration and he was the driving force to make that happen," Liu said. "They don't even realize it. They're learning good behavior and it's just good," Merrill said. "It needs to be celebrated, Frank needs to be celebrated," stated Liu. So, for building the Rich May Memorial field to foster healthy recreational opportunities, this week's CBS News Bay Area ICON Award goes to Dr. Frank Merrill.

Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small wins Democratic primary despite indictment
Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small will be the Democratic nominee again despite facing an indictment. With all districts reporting, Small won the nomination handily, with more than 62% of the vote. Challenger Bob McDevitt, a former union president, had about 36%. Small will face Naeem Ahmed Khan, who won the uncontested Republican primary, in November's general election. Small was indicted on a witness tampering charge in December after prosecutors allege he tried to get his daughter to cover up alleged abuse. Prosecutors previously charged him with abusing his teenage daughter. CBS News Philadelphia In December, Small's attorney Edwin Jacobs said in a statement, "It is very unusual for discussions between parents and their children to be of any interest whatsoever to a county prosecutor. This indictment proves the old adage: a grand jury can indict a ham sandwich. This is especially true when the indictment is good for grabbing a headline." Small became mayor in 2019 and was elected to a four-year term in 2021.
