New Orleans, La. — Veteran Criminal Court Judge Frank Marullo was on the bench dealing with accused criminals Wednesday, after becoming a crime victim himself the night before.
"I just think carjackings are random, but I don't expect it in this block," said Michael Matthew Molloy, who lives in the neighborhood where the judge's car was taken.
"I've talked to Judge Marullo, he's not injured... certainly he's not injured physically, but he's certainly injured as

Charles Williams loves his small garden, and can almost taste the tomatoes that will soon grow on the young plants next to his back fence.
But he's at risk because a large section of the long abandoned house next door is falling towards his home.
"I like growing my vegetables," Charles grinned "See I grow mustard greens.. Are you worried it's going to fall on you? I know. I took the 4x4 and propped the wall up to keep it from going into my yard."
But he knows the wall will fall. So he watches the plants with one eye, and the failing wall

NEW ORLEANS -- New Orleans has been called a murder capital of the country with a murder rate more than 10 times the national average. But some now suggest the city's reporting in other categories of violent crime doesn't reflect what's happening in other city's with crime problems.
"You would almost have to argue that everyone in the city of New Orleans who sets out with the intention of murdering someone is always successful," said Sen. J.P. Morrell. "Every shooter is an excellent marksman because because they never hit a bystander."
In Detroit the ratio of aggravated assault to murder in 2011 was 28 to 1. In Atlanta the ratio was 40 to 1 and in Houston, 60 to 1.Over that same time period, according to the

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) -- Attempts to raise tuition at Louisiana's public colleges appear dead for the session, despite concerns about repeated rounds of budget cuts to schools.
Rep. Walt Leger, the number two ranking member of the House, said Wednesday that he's shelving his proposal to let the campuses raise tuition according to a plan devised by the Board of Regents. He said he doesn't have the two-thirds support of lawmakers required to pass the bill.
"The votes are not there, and I don't believe they will be there this session," said Leger, D-New Orleans, "As far as I'm concerned, it's done."
A day earlier, a separate proposal by Shreveport Republican Rep. Thomas Carmody to remove the legislative approval requirement for college tuition hikes failed

NEW ORLEANS -- Superintendent Ronal Serpas and Mayor Mitch Landrieu welcomed the Police Department's first recruit class of the year Wednesday.
Twenty-nine cadets are making their way through their police academy, but some experts say it's like putting a finger in a hole a the dam.
“We're one of the first cities in America to add recruit classes and we're adding two this year,” said Mayor Mitch Landrieu.
In fact, Superintendent Serpas used the example of Louisiana State Police, as they haven’t held a recruit class since 2008. According to State Police Spokesman Captain Doug Cain, the State Police force was 1150 after that recruit
