To think $41K/yr is roughly $20/hr you can see why no one was willing to take the job, especially if they were assigned to the 1st precinct in NBR, patrolling Plank Rd.

BATON ROUGE — Baton Rouge Police Chief T.J. Morse highlighted his department's massive pay raise at a Tuesday news conference with Mayor-President Sid Edwards, as the two urged more people to apply for BRPD job openings.

Sgt. Roderick McCoy, BRPD's director of recruiting, said interest in becoming a Baton Rouge police officer jumped 300% since the Metro Council approved a near-40% raise in April.

That raise brought BRPD's starting pay for officers from $41,000 to $58,000—the highest-paid police department in the state, according to Edwards.

"The one thing we were missing to attract new officers was our pay," Morse said.

The chief said he is looking for new academy candidates as well as current officers from other departments wanting to make a move.

The deadline to apply for BRPD's January academy is Monday, Aug. 31, according to Morse, and 67 people have applied so far. He and Edwards expect to add 50 to 60 new officers in 2027.

Why wouldn’t you call 911 if it was that big of a deal?

He did call 911 if you read the OP and was directed to the BRPD voicemail you dummy.

OP you should have called LSP, BRPD would have done nothing. File a police report with LSP, there is a substation close to CCLA since you have the plate number and description of the hoodrat. The hoodrat committed aggravated assault with a firearm, which is a felony.

BATON ROUGE — Southern University proposed a campus-wide dress code at a meeting on Friday.

Southern University Chairman Attorney Tony Clayton said that the idea came to him after noticing other schools around the country, particularly HBCUs, roll out dress codes.

"I walked around campus the other day, I think we need it," Clayton said at the meeting.

Tuskegee University implemented a new dress code that prohibited students from wearing bonnets and durags, along with revealing clothing and bedroom shoes, according to a report by ABC, reviving debates on whether dress codes perpetuate anti-Black stereotypes against students.

Clayton advised that the chancellors discuss the issue ahead of the next meeting on Sept. 18, where it could possibly appear on the agenda.
