The search for missing mother of 4 Suzanne Clark Simpson continues- John Paul shows what we know
SUMMARY: The search for missing mother Suzanne Clark Simpson is now on day four, with no significant breakthroughs reported at a recent press conference by the Alamo Park police chief. A new image of Suzanne from the last night she was seen, wearing a black dress and heels at the Argy private club, was revealed. The active search has been scaled back due to resource constraints, with personnel redirected to execute search warrants, including at the Simpson home. Authorities did not disclose if any significant findings emerged from that location. For more details, visit kat.com.
SUMMARY: Anonymous employees from the Louisiana Health Department claim that leadership has instructed them not to promote COVID-19 and flu vaccines anymore. A report from NPR cites four employees who were told to cease social media posts, vaccine events, and press releases about vaccination encouragement due to a re-evaluation of messaging as the pandemic evolves. The health department did not confirm specifics but acknowledged the change in approach. Experts warn that this shift may lead to decreased vaccination rates during a time when Louisiana is experiencing high flu cases, potentially increasing illness and mortality rates. Vaccines remain available and free through various local channels.
Anonymous employees say the state health department is pulling back on telling people to get vaccinated. That’s according to a report published by NPR on Friday.
SUMMARY: Today, plenty of sunshine is expected, but it will remain cold, with temperatures ranging from the 30s to mid-40s. The north shore will see sub-freezing temperatures tomorrow morning. Winds will pick up later in the day, with gusts reaching 15-20 mph. Although skies are mostly clear, a few foggy spots are reported in Belle Chase and Galliano. A cold front will move through this afternoon, bringing colder air tonight and into Saturday, with highs in the low 50s. A warming trend begins Sunday, with temperatures reaching the upper 50s, and continued cold weather for Christmas Day with potential showers.

They said a doctor groped them — prosecutors refused charges
SUMMARY: Bethany Cooney-Palmer filed a police report in May 2022 after an uncomfortable appointment with Dr. Bahman Sabbaghian, who allegedly conducted an improper examination. Two years later, her case, along with another woman’s, was dismissed by the district attorney’s office. Sabbaghian’s lawyer argued that a female staff member was present, but Cooney-Palmer denied this. Despite the criminal case being dismissed, Cooney-Palmer and others sought civil action, though a lawyer declined their case due to statute of limitations. Frustrated, Cooney-Palmer shared her story on social media, leading more women to come forward. Investigations by the medical board and police continue.
