... when she attended a football party where she became “very intoxicated.” Several hours later, Doe’s roommate returned home and heard “a loud bang and a slapping noise accompanied by hearing a woman’s voice loudly saying ‘no.’ ”. When the boyfriend of Doe’s roommate yelled into Doe’s bedroom, two Baylor players emerged — Tre’Von Armstead and Shamycheal Chatman — one of whom said Doe was fine. The roommate’s boyfriend looked into the room, however, and “saw Ms. Doe partially unclothed on the floor of the bedroom and [she] said ‘she is not fine.’ ”. Waco Police responded to the scene but did not aggressively investigate the case, and neither did Baylor Police, the lawsuit alleged. Neither Armstead nor Chatman was charged with a crime. Chatman later transferred to Sam Houston State University. When Baylor commissioned an independent investigation of the incident two years later, the lawsuit stated, the school found Armstead responsible and expelled him. In an interview in October on “60 Minutes,” Baylor Chief Financial Officer Reagan Ramsower was asked about the 2013 incident. “There was a police report. I suppose it stayed with the police department,” ...

Thursday’s season premiere and episodes airing over the next few weeks were written and filmed at some point between July and September. This means you’ll find no sly topical commentary in its scripts or views of what might have been. Instead, the appeal of “Scandal” remains the same as it ever was. This a show about winning, at all cost, even though the team we’re rooting for doesn’t always come out on top. The sixth season premiere ends with Olivia and her gladiators set back on their heels. Watching them claw their way back up will be a thrill, and goodness knows we need the escapism. And that’s precisely what “Scandal” promises at this juncture: a lengthy, satisfying battle. “Scandal” fans call themselves gladiators for this reason. Victories are attained; ...

The Final Obama Scandal

... that: The administration chose to use its erroneous assessment in public discussions of al Qaeda for nearly six years, even though primary source evidence from bin Laden's own compound directly refuted it. In April 2016, U. S. officials finally began to walk away from the "50 to 100" canard. This past December, the U.

... coming back and trying to understand how this even happened, and if she had to pick a side, which side would that be and what to do about it, it’s been obviously played off-camera,” Capshaw says. “But the idea that Alex would turn himself in and face what she knows he’d be facing is devastating for her.”. Mick and Amaya aren’t romantic on Legends of Tomorrow? LOL you’re joking. — Erin. Au contraire, even Dominic Purcell concurs. “No, there’s no relationship going on between Amaya and Heat Wave,” he tells me. “It’s more of an emotional connection.” But we do know there’s a steamy sex scene coming up in episode 11, so make of that what you will!
