    Don't know the guy. How anybody gets arrested this way after all the Dateline specials and high-profile cases is beyond me. Anyone know what he covers?

    This comes a day after one of the Times-Pic photogs tried to commit suicide-by-cop.

    Sorry if this is a D_B but I didn't see it elsewhere.

    He covers LSU football, women's hoops and baseball. Jim Kleinpeter is the other LSU writer -- backup football, men's hoops.

    William's a very talented guy. Sad story.

    There's an opening. Maybe I'll apply. Always wanted to live in the Bayou.

    That's funny...dude gets no sympathy here.

    At least he was smart enough to leave the cat and Cool Whip at home.

    How exactly do these operations go down?

    Do the authorities nab the person as soon as he shows up?

    How do they know who he is?

    Seems to me if I'm looking to meet a 15-year-old, and there is no 15-year-old, I do a quick U-turn and get the hell out of there.
