"The evidence is going to speak for itself. Do you want to see my hands? My hands are perfect.""I found her," he repeated. "I stood there for an hour and went to work late. They did not say that."The reporter then confronted him about his rape conviction."And I've not done nothing wrong since I've been home," he said. "Not a violation, not a traffic stop." The NYPD did not immediately return a comment request.

CNN's Jake Tapper, co-author of the new book on the alleged cover-up of former President Joe Bidens health decline, says President Donald Trump is not forthcoming with his health information."I just think in general, not Trump specific, but in general, I think that the press corps, and Im certainly including myself, needs to worry less about politeness when it comes to these health issues and needs to be even more aggressive when it comes to demanding transparency on health issues," Tapper said Thursday on "The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer."On Tuesday, Tappers book, "Original Sin," co-authored withAxios journalist Alex Thompson, was published.BIDEN INSIDER WAS REPORTEDLY 'AMAZED' AT THE MEDIA COVERAGE THEY WERE ABLE TO SPINThe book looks in part at the efforts made by top Biden aides and allies to hide the truth about Bidens mental and physical health, providing a depiction of a president who was routinely addled during his term.During his discussion with co-author Thompson and Blitzer, Tapper said he doesnt think Trump, 78, is being fully open about his own health."When it comes to the president, President Trump, while he appears healthy, he has not been transparent about his health records," Tapper said. "And I think that thats something that the American people have a right to."Tapper has received mounting criticism from observers who believe he was part of the alleged cover-up by dismissing and underreporting clear signs of Biden's decline, like the rest of the liberal media. The CNN anchor has been on multiple shows admitting to failures in how the reporting on Bidens health was done, and critics have said he is now profiting off that failure.On April 13, 2025, theWhite House released the results of Trumps physical exam conducted on April 11.RESULTS OF PRESIDENT TRUMP'S PHYSICAL RELEASED, HERE'S WHAT THEY SAY"President Donald J. Trump underwent his annual physical examination at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center,"Navy Capt. Sean P. Barbabella, the physician to the president, said in a statement released by the White House."I performed and supervised the comprehensive exam, which included diagnostic and laboratory testing, as well as consultations with fourteen specialty consultants, all in accordance with U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommendations,"Barbabella added. "The President has consented to release the physical exam findings to the public."The summary of the examination noted that Trump "remains in excellent health, exhibiting robust cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, and general physical function," and that his "active lifestyle continues to contribute significantly to his well-being."In June 2024, the Wall Street Journalpublished its explosive story about how some lawmakers began questioning Biden's health, and the debate surrounding the issue became increasingly heated, with staff and lawmakers insisting that Biden was in good health, althoughsome have since come out and shared stories that made them doubt that he was healthy.Rep. Mike Quigley, D-Ill., told Tapper of his trip with Biden to the Emerald Isle inApril 2023 that reminded him of his own ailing father, who had Parkinsons.On Sunday, Bidens prostate cancer diagnosiswas announced, with his spokesperson telling Fox News days later that the last time he received a blood test that screens for prostate cancer wasin 2014.

Satellite imagery captured what remained of a mangled 5,000-ton North Korean naval destroyer damaged during its launch ceremony this week, leaving the country's dictator distraught.A photo captured by Maxar Technologies of the northeastern port of Chongjin, shows the ship apparently twisted and lying on its side, partly lodged on a launch slip and partly submerged in water.The secretive communist nation covered the would-be warship with a blue tarp.KIM JONG-UN LEFT FUMING AFTER NORTH KOREA'S NEW DESTROYER DAMAGED IN FAILED LAUNCHMexar Technologies also snapped a satellite photo of the ship before the launch, looking pristine as it prepared for its first voyage.But that voyage was put on hold after a flatcar guiding the ship failed to move during the launch, throwing the warship off balance and crushing parts of its bottom before its stern eventually slid down the launch slipway into the water, state media reported.North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un was reportedly fuming over the botched launch, which was intended to show the nation's military might but instead became an embarrassment on the world stage.State media also reported on Kim's fury.KIM JONG UN SUPERVISES NORTH KOREA'S AIR DRILLS, PUSHES FOR ENHANCED WAR PREPARATIONHe reportedly blamed military officials, scientists and shipyard operators for a "serious accident and criminal act caused by absolute carelessness, irresponsibility and unscientific empiricism."The extent of the damage to the destroyer is unclear, though Kim demanded that repairs be completed before the communist Working Party's meeting in June.The dictator, known for his brutality as much as his secrecy, ominously warned that during that meeting, mistakes caused by the "irresponsibility of the relevant officials" would be investigated.Under Kim's rule, North Korea has been focused on building an arsenal of military weapons in what it regards as a response to western aggression.In March, Kim personally oversaw tests of AI-powered suicide drones, unmanned exploding drones that can be used to launch an attack without putting the attackers' lives in danger. He reportedly called for an increase in production of those drones.He also recently claimed the country was in the process of building a nuclear submarine.In its first real showing of military force since the Korean War in the 1950s, an estimated 15,000 troops were sent to Russia to fight alongside the fellow communist nation in its war against Ukraine.South Korea claimed in late April that 600 of those troops had been killed.

Former NASCAR driver Danica Patrick shared the agony of her relationship and breakup with NFL star Aaron Rodgers, during an appearance on the Sage Steele Show."The breakup with Aaron in 2020, because it was sudden," Patrick said when asked what was the most painful experience."It felt like it was my life. So when you live with somebody, its your whole life And because the nature of the relationship was emotionally abusive, so that wore me down to nothing."CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMPatrick claims that Rogers "leaves a trail of blood.""Someone that you know, people could never imagine that I would lack any confidence, or belief in the simple things about who I am.

It gave me the greatest gift of how much I needed to show up for myself and take care of myself."Rodgers and Patrick went public with their relationship in January 2018 after first meeting at the ESPY Awards in 2012.FORMER NASCAR DRIVER DANICA PATRICK ANNOUNCES PIVOT TO TENNISAt the time,a rep for the "Pretty Intense" podcast host and entrepreneurconfirmed to Fox Newsthat the pair were an item.Meanwhile, PatricktoldThe Associated Pressthat she and Rodgers first crossed paths in 2012 at The ESPY Awards."I told him a long time ago Id always root for him as a player," she recalled to the outlet."Now I am probably going to cheer for the whole team.

Now Im going to cheer for the whole team."In November 2019, the pair appeared to be going strong, with Patrick even jokingon "The Jenny McCarthy Show" about a proposal.When asked when shed get married, Patrick jokingly responded, "Um, [tomorrow] wait, no, what?"Back in August 2017, Rodgers opened up to ESPN, explaining its not always easy dating when all eyes are on you."When you are living out a relationship in the public eye, its definitely its difficult," he said. "It has some extra constraints because you have other opinions about your relationship, how it affects your work and, you know, just some inappropriate connections Theres some horrible media outlets that you say something or do something, where theres a story, and they just go with it and run with it."The couple then confirmed their breakup in July 2020.Patrick later opened up on the breakup during an appearance on National Geographic's "Running Wild with Bear Grylls" and told the survivalist that she learned a ton about herself during the public breakup."I think we learn the most about ourselves through relationships, but there's nothing like heartbreak to really throw you in the deep end of that," Patrick said, according to Yahoo! Entertainment. "But I've learned a lot and as broken open as I was on the sad end, I have felt so much joy in so many more instances and so many more unlikely places than I ever have, so it's like my heart got broken open to both ends of the spectrum."Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

The New York Knicks have fallen to a place that no team in NBA history has ever overcome.After a historic collapse in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals to the Indiana Pacers, the Knicks let Game 2 slip through their fingers, in a 114-109 loss.No NBA team has ever lost the first two games at home and come back to win a series in the conference finals.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMPascal Siakam scored a playoff career-high 39 points, and the Pacers beat the New York Knicks 114-109 on Friday night for a 2-0 lead in the Eastern Conference finals."We have a long way to go and its only going to get tougher for us," Siakam said.Myles Turner added 16 points and Tyrese Haliburton had 14 points, 11 assists and eight rebounds for the Pacers, who lost to the Lakers in 2000 in their only NBA Finals appearance.Siakam finished 15 for 23 from the field on a night nobody else on the high-scoring Pacers had more than five baskets."Special game," Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said.

During the first two weeks of Sean "Diddy" Combs' sex-trafficking trial, the jury heard from the rapper's ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, male escorts, ex-assistants and former Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agents.The prosecution has roughly six weeks to prove Diddy helmed a criminal enterprise used to sexually exploit women, including Cassie. Authorities charged Diddy with multiple counts of racketeering conspiracy,sex traffickingby force, fraud or coercion and transporting for prostitution in 2024."Week two of the Combs trial helped the prosecution corroborate Venturas testimony through independent witnesses and establish the elements of sex trafficking and racketeering," former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani told Fox News Digital. "The defense scored some points on cross-examination, but I think theyre way behind."However, other experts noted the defense is doing a "great job" using the prosecution's witnesses to bolster their arguments during cross-examination.CASSIE VENTURA EMERGES AS STAR WITNESS IN DIDDY'S FEDERAL SEX CRIMES TRIAL: EXPERT"The defense is doing a great job at exploiting witness testimony to support their theory of the case and show that while Mr. Combs may be a bad actor when it comes to domestic violence, etc. something no one is condoning the federal charges are unsubstantiated based on the testimony we have heard to date, in my opinion," attorney David S. Seltzer told Fox News Digital. "While we cannot hear the testimony in real time because we are in Federal Court, I think the Government is not meeting their burden to date."Entertainment lawyer Tre Lovell noted that while the jury has heard "consistent" testimony from the witnesses, reasonable doubt "looms very heavy" after the first two weeks."To date, we have heard consistent testimony from several of the witnesses that Diddy was violent with Cassie Ventura, was controlling over her, instructed what to do in the freak offs and was a jealous boyfriend, but none of this is sufficient to justify a criminal enterprise or a pattern of criminal conduct," Lovell, of The Lovell Firm, explained. "Cassies relationship can be as easily characterized as she was in love with Diddy, performed freak offs because of her feelings for him and stayed with him for personal benefits such as furthering her career, developing connections, and being taken care of financially. Reasonable doubt looms very heavy in these first two weeks of trial. The prosecution will need to bring out additional victims that are not girlfriends of Diddy to separate a romantic, emotionally charged relationship from actual sex trafficking."DIDDY SUNK $35 MILLION INTO MIAMI MANSION, BUT STAR ISLAND DIGS MAY NOT BE SAFE IF HE'S CONVICTED: EXPERTOn Thursday, the jury heard from rapper Kid Cudi who testified that he had a romantic relationship with Diddy's ex, Cassie, in 2011. Kid Cudi testified that when Diddy found out about the relationship, he broke into the musician's home and later allegedly set fire to his car. However, there was no definitive evidence to prove Kid Cudi's claims."Ventura told Kid Cudi that Combs would hit and kick her, but Combs lawyers elicited testimony that Cassie never said anything about sexual abuse, which is important," Rahmani, founder of West Coast Trial Lawyers, said. "Kid Cudi broke up with Ventura because Combs was violent, and he was concerned for his own safety. He also said Ventura was playing both him and Combs. Thats a central theory for the defense: that Ventura is a strong, independent woman who made her own decisions, including willingly participating in the swingers lifestyle."While there were flaws in the prosecution's presentation of Kid Cudi's testimony, it was still "important because arson is an underlying crime for a RICO conspiracy," Rahmani explained."That allows the prosecution to potentially get a racketeering conviction even if the jury believes the freak offs were consensual and there was no sex trafficking," he added. "If the jury doesnt find trafficking, they can still convict on racketeering if they find that Combs engaged in kidnapping, arson, extortion or prostitution."DIDDY TRIAL WITNESS REVEALS THREATS AND VIOLENCE THAT COULD SUPPORT RICO CHARGES: EXPERTMale exotic dancer Sharay Hayes, also known as The Punisher, testified to having sex with Cassie at the request of Diddy and said that the encounters were always consensual. He told the jury that he didnt get any cues of any discomfort from Cassie, and that if he had, he would have stopped. Diddy's defense lawyer doubled down, asking if Hayes ever did anything to Cassie that she didnt want. Hayes replied no. He claimed it was consensual."The scenario I was there to create was going well," he said during cross-examination.Hayes spoke to Fox News Digital about his "nerve-wracking" experience testifying in the rapper's trial."Honestly, going into the courtroom I thought I was prepared for it, but it was extremely nerve-wracking," he told Fox News Digital. "So I want to say, for almost the entire time of my testimony, I avoided eye contact. I avoided even looking in [Diddy's] direction. And then actually going into that environment, you can't really prepare yourself and I had no idea it was going to be that many people, that many rows and tables. So I wanna say, for about half of the testimony, I couldn't even locate where he was. It was a really intense atmosphere."WATCH: MALE ESCORT THE PUNISHER MADE DIRECT EYE CONTACT WITH DIDDY AFTER LEAVING COURTHayes also admitted that he "never truly understood what part of my testimony was valuable" to the prosecution."I really thought my testimony because there was nothing negative, nothing whatever I really thought it was something that the defense would benefit them," he said."I'm not a legal analyst or anything, but sometimes I said, well, maybe the prosecution just wants to question me and have everything in case the defense calls me," Hayes added. "Because I really couldn't understand how I was significant to their case. But there's probably something there that I'm just unaware of."According to Seltzer, The Punisher's testimony "did not help" the prosecution."The government is trying to put the pieces together for a RICO charge, but so far the testimony of The Punisher and Kid Cudi did not help them," he told Fox News Digital. "The Punisher, I believe, bolstered the defense position that all the activities were consensual, and that Cassie was a willing participant, stating he observed Ventura sighing or wincing at Combs repeated directions, he interpreted it as frustration with the situation rather than unwillingness to participate. Furthermore, stating he believed their experiences were completely natural. Kid Cudis recount of decade-old allegations also assisted the defense, which was supported by the Judge sustaining an objection by the defense when it came to a speculative statement that Mr. Combs committed burglary and/or arson.""The police in both those allegations could not connect Mr. Combs to the incidents, and the apology by Mr. Combs years later, in my opinion, is not an admission to anything other than, sorry we had issues regarding Ms. Ventura," Seltzer added. "The government put on a Homeland Security agent to show all the items seized in Mr. Combs house. That tactic is a continuation of the government trying to paint Mr. Combs as a bad actor, someone the jury can convict because he is devious and reprehensible, but the testimony of the drugs, firearms and baby oil still do not support the charges."DIDDY TRIAL: CASSIE VENTURA'S TOP 5 CLAIMS AGAINST RAPPERCassie Ventura's mother Regina Ventura and former best friend Kerry Morgan were both called to the stand by the prosecution to testify against Diddy."Regina Ventura, Cassies mom, testified for only 15 minutes, but it was some of the most impactful testimony of the trial," Rahmani explained. "Regina also took pictures of Cassies bruises and they were shown to the jury. Combs was upset Cassie was in a relationship with Kid Cudi and Combs demanded that Cassie pay him $20,000. If Cassie refused, Combs said he would release two sex tapes of her and send someone to hurt her and Kid Cudi. Regina took out a home equity line to pay Combs the money."This testimony proved coercion, which is an element of sex trafficking, and extortion, which is a RICO predicate act. It also corroborates Cassies account that she was beaten and Combs used the freak off tapes as blackmail."Morgan, who claimed she saw Diddy become physically abusive with Cassie on a handful of occasions, was one of the "best witnesses so far," according to Rahmani."She saw Combs punch and drag Ventura across the floor," he explained. "After the hotel attack, Combs came to Venturas apartment and banged on the door with a hammer. Combs controlled every aspect of Venturas life: her finances, her apartment, her car, and her career. This control explains the psychology of abuse and is evidence of coercion for the sex trafficking charges."LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSThe prosecution has also been presenting evidence of Diddy's alleged criminal enterprise with testimony in the past two weeks, according to Rahmani."David James, Combs former assistant, took the stand and told jurors that he got condoms, Astroglide and Percocet for Combs. This helps prove the criminal enterprise," he noted."One of Combs other assistants, George Kaplan, testified under a grant of immunity that he would pick up drugs for Combs and set up the hotel rooms with baby oil and Astroglide for the 'freak offs,' the attorney said. "He would also clean up the drugs and hotel rooms after the freak offs. He also described a number of incidents where Combs was violent with Ventura: on his private jet with broken glass, and in his home with Ventura having bruising on her face. This was more evidence of the criminal enterprise, with Combs as the head."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERThe jury has heard from at least one expert witness so far, Dr. Dawn Hughes. The clinical psychologist took the stand to provide "blind testimony" about why a person would stay in an abusive relationship."The psychology expert was helpful to the prosecution in answering a lingering question that every juror most certainly has: if Cassie was being trafficked and forced to do all these horrific things, why did she stay? The lay person would probably assume she stayed because she had feelings despite Diddys bad conduct," Lovell said. "The expert was able to provide an alternative reason emanating from abuse trauma where victims become controlled by the perpetrator and feel trapped and helpless.""She testified it was about the power and control abusers have over the victim, which were the very buzz words the prosecution needs for the sex trafficking charge," he added. "She was helpful to the prosecution, both for providing a reason for Cassie staying other than she loved Combs, as well as the force and coercion elements necessary for sex trafficking."Fox News Digital's Larry Fink contributed to this report.

Coming clean hasnt been easy for Sherri Papini.In 2022, the California mother of two was sentenced to 18 months in prison for faking her own kidnapping so she could go back to an ex-boyfriend. Her disappearance resulted in a three-week multi-state search before she surfaced on Thanksgiving Day in 2016.Now, the 42-year-old is reenacting her disappearance and taking a lie detector test in the Investigation Discovery (ID) true crime docuseries, "Sherri Papini: Caught in a Lie."KIDNAPPING HOAXER SHERRI PAPINI INSISTS SHE WAS 'TORTURED' FOR WEEKS, IN FIRST INTERVIEW SINCE DISAPPEARANCE"She really did not want to do either one of those things, but I think she saw this as her one shot at getting her story out, and she was going to do whatever it took," director Nicole Rittenmeyer told Fox News Digital."We made sure that we were in close contact with her therapist," Rittenmeyer explained. "We had safe words in case she couldnt handle stuff. She had emotional support, and humans were there for her so she could get a hug."Despite Papinis hesitations, she ultimately agreed to do both for the docuseries and have it filmed. She's now alleging that she was the victim of a violent kidnapping.The lie detector test was conducted by polygraph expert Brett Bartlett, a retired police officer with 20 years of experience in law enforcement.In the docuseries, Bartlett told Papini that he believed her when she claimed that she was not free to leave her former boyfriend James Reyes home and that she didnt ask him to brand her on her right shoulder.When Papini was asked if she planned to travel to Southern California with Reyes, she said no. However, Bartlett told her, "Your body is telling me otherwise.""I remember making a plan with James," said Papini. "Leading him on. So that we could talk. [I kept] telling him that I wanted to be with him. There was a lot of leading him on to keep him interested."Rittenmeyer said Papini was "very anxious" after cameras stopped rolling.FOLLOW THE FOX TRUE CRIME TEAM ON X"She was very mad at herself for not being as forthcoming," said Rittenmeyer. " I was feeling like she was holding back, and the polygraph broke it open."On Nov. 2, 2016, Papinis husband, Keith Papini, reported his wife missing after he discovered she wasnt home and hadnt picked up their children from daycare. Her purse and jewelry were left behind. An extensive search for the missing mom ensued.It wouldnt be until Nov. 26 that an emaciated Papini was spotted by a driver 150 miles from her home. She was covered in bruises, burns and rashes and was still bound by restraints. The flesh on her back was still blistered with a blurred branding and her long blonde hair had been cut short. Papini told authorities two masked Hispanic women forced her into an SUV at gunpoint and held her captive.Investigators began to question Papinis story. They later discovered evidence that would contradict her stories. In reality, authorities said, Papini was staying with Reyes nearly 600 miles away from her home and had hurt herself to back up her false statements.Papini eventually confessed that it had all been a hoax, and she was staying at Reyes apartment the entire time she was missing.SIGN UP TO GET THE TRUE CRIME NEWSLETTERIn the docuseries, Papini said she had an emotional affair with Reyes after being unhappy with her marriage and feared losing her children. But the kidnapping wasnt consensual, she claimed. Reyes DNA was found on the clothes she was wearing when she was recovered.Rittenmeyer said this is the first time Papini is publicly sharing this account."She never shared it with anyone except for us and very close members of her family," said Rittenmeyer. "This is going to be the first time Shasta County sheriffs will hear this story when they watch it with the rest of the viewers."Fox News Digital reached out to the Shasta County Sheriff's Office, Keiths attorney and Reyes for comment. According to the docuseries, Reyes vehemently denies kidnapping and abusing Papini."He maintains that any harm he inflicted on her was done at her direction," the docuseries shared. "He has not been charged with any crime in connection with Sherris disappearance."When questioned by FBI agents, Reyes claimed that Papini planned "everything," including the decision to use a wood-burning tool to brand her shoulder. He passed a polygraph test.GET REAL-TIME UPDATES DIRECTLY ON THE TRUE CRIME HUBKeiths lawyer told the docuseries that any allegations of "severe abuse, manipulation and lying" are false and "disproven by a mountain of documentary evidence and objective, indisputable facts."In the docuseries, Papini claimed that the descriptions she gave of the two masked Hispanic women were supposed to represent Reyes mother. She hoped investigators would use it to track down Reyes without her saying he abducted her. But Rittenmeyer told Papini that Reyes mother was Irish."OK. Ive met her twice," Papini responded. "It had very little to do with his mother and her ethnicity. It was about trying to get them to alert them to his identity without saying his name out loud. Quite frankly, I dont give a fk whether shes Hispanic or not. It was about James. It wasnt about her."Rittenmeyer said that the docuseries will detail "a specific personality disorder that she has.""I went into this understanding that the conventional wisdom about Sherri is that shes a sociopath, a narcissist who faked a hoax kidnapping to get attention," said Rittenmeyer.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"[But] there are certain ways that Sherris personality manifests that are very theatrical and can feel performative. And so, given what we understand about her, I think its basic human nature to be incredibly skeptical. I did not trust anything she said to me. If she told me my mother loved me, I was going to get a second and third source because, even as her lawyer says, shes a convicted liar."WATCH: DR. PHIL CALLS OUT SHERRI PAPINI FOR LAUGHING AS SHE LIED ABOUT BEING CHAINED"What I learned is that her particular form of personality disorder results in a lot of pleasing," Rittenmeyer continued. "Theres an effort to please, which served us well when we did reenactments and the polygraph because she didnt want to do those things, but she did them." We assume people lie because theyre trying to deceive because theres financial gain or something that theyre trying to get over on us. And in the case of her personality disorder, she lies as a protective mechanism. Its like default. Shes gotten a lot of therapy, and shes a lot better than she used to be. But there was so much more nuance to her and why she did the things that she did, and what drove her to do them."In 2022, Papini accepted a plea bargain with prosecutors and acknowledged she made up the story that prompted the frantic search. That same year, Keith filed for divorce."I am deeply ashamed of myself for my behavior and so very sorry for the pain Ive caused my family, my friends, all the good people who needlessly suffered because of my story, and those who worked so hard to try to help me," she said in a statement at the time. "I will work the rest of my life to make amends for what I have done."The plea agreement called for Papini to pay restitution topping $300,000.But today, Papini is adamant that she was a victim."Havent you ever lied? And then, has the lie been blown up?" Papini said in the docuseries.Rittemeyer said that Papini, now out with her story, is "working on being a better person.""I do think the person I interviewed is very different from the one Shasta County interviewed," said Rittenmeyer. "She went through it. She served her time. Shes done a lot of therapy If theres a lesson to take away from this film, I think its dont lie. You kickstart events and youre going to spiral horrifically out of control."

Leaving the military and moving back into civilian life is a major shift but for Americas heroes, there is one organization that is helping to make the transition smoother.The Honor Foundation (THF) is assisting veterans as they transition by using the power of network building one cup of coffee at a time.Headquartered in San Diego, California, the foundation works with veterans to help them find their purpose after they leave the armed forces.THE HONOR FOUNDATION HELPS AMERICA'S HIGHLY TRAINED MILITARY SUCCEED 'ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE UNIFORM'The foundation's "cups of coffee" program then draws on an internal directory of mentors and alumni to connect with those in the program.Alex Moffitt of Springfield, Virginia, was in the U.S. Army for 10 years.

A retired FBI special agent is sounding the alarm after 10 inmates escaped from a New Orleans jail, with five remaining at large, saying this incident "should get everyone's attention.""This wasnt a complicated escape. Ten inmates got out through a hole behind a toilet. It took more than seven hours before anyone noticed they were gone," Jason Pack, a retired FBI special agent, said to Fox News Digital. "That tells you a lot about whats going on inside that jail. Too few people on staff. Not enough oversight. And likely not enough working equipment or security checks."On Tuesday, an Orleans Parish Jail maintenance worker was arrested and charged in connection with the escape.Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill shared in a statement that Sterling Williams, 33, had been arrested and charged with 10 counts of principal to simple escape and malfeasance in office.LOUISIANA JAIL WORKER ARRESTED FOR ALLEGEDLY HELPING 10 INMATES ESCAPE ORLEANS PARISH FACILITY"Williams admitted to agents that one of the escapees advised him to turn the water off in the cell where the inmates escaped from," Murrill said in the statement. "Instead of reporting the inmate, Williams turned the water off as directed, allowing the inmates to carry out their scheme to successfully escape."Pack said the inmates' choice to target a maintenance worker for help was a smart and calculated move."If you think about it, maintenance people are not really looked after there. They're kind of low-key, and they have keys to doors. They have access to utilities and panels, so it was pretty smart to target him on the part of the criminals," Pack said.He added that the prison escape was also not a "crime of opportunity" and had most likely been planned for some time."Inmates are resourceful when it comes to things on the inside. It's not out of the realm of possibility that they hatched this plan over a few days or a few weeks," Pack said.Additionally, Williams' arrest may not be the only one coming, Pack theorized, stating that this could be just the first initial wave of arrests as other employees had been suspended."It seems like these inmates are going to exploit any crack in the system they can. And sometimes the cracks will lead to pressure whether waiting or not for folks who are in vulnerable positions. And that seemed to be what happened here, enough so that he (Williams) was able to turn the water off, they were able to pull the toilet out and escape through the corridor there and out the back door," Pack said."And I think when we say jailbreak from now on, all of us are going to remember that video of the 10 people just fleeing out the jail."Pack added that "the bigger issue is what allowed this to happen in the first place.""That jail had just 36 officers working with over 1,000 inmates. Thats not enough people to keep a place like that running safely. When staff are stretched that thin, its easy for things to slip through the cracks. Most jails around the country are dealing with similar problems low staffing, budget cuts and buildings that are falling apart," Pack said.The jail is only at 60% staffing, and at the time of the escape, four supervisors and 36 staff members were monitoring 1,400 inmates, authorities said.LOUISIANA STATE POLICE CAPTURES 4TH ESCAPED INMATE IN NOLA PRISON BREAK, 6 STILL AT LARGEFive of the 10 inmates remain on the run, with the fifth recaptured Tuesday in New Orleans.Corey Boyd, 19, who was briefly spotted last Friday hours after the jailbreak, was taken into custody Tuesday, the Louisiana State Police said. Boyd was originally jailed for second-degree murder, attempted second-degree murder, aggravated battery and threatening a public official.However, the escapee who is considered most dangerous is Derrick Groves, 27, who remains at large.He was convicted of killing two men during Mardi Gras in New Orleans Ninth Ward in 2018 and was in jail awaiting sentencing.LOUISIANA GOVERNOR BLASTS 'PROGRESSIVE PROMISES' AFTER NEW ORLEANS JAIL ESCAPEPack said what makes this case more unique than other prison breaks is the number of convicts that escaped at once."It's very unusual to have a 10-person manhunt in a prison escape like this. These don't happen regularly. And when they do, it just shows you the danger that folks can risk close to the community and why corrections officers are an important part of the law enforcement team," Pack said. "There is a nationwide shortage of correction officers around. They're low-paid and under-appreciated and it's a very difficult job dealing with inmates."Pack said the number one goal for law enforcement right now is getting the inmates "back into custody quickly and safely.""Some of them are facing serious charges, and when people are on the run, especially if theyre scared, things can get dangerous fast. They might steal a car, break into a house, or hurt someone if they feel cornered. The longer this drags out, the more chance someone gets hurt," Pack said.The five fugitives still on the run are Groves, Jermaine Donald, 42, Antoine Massey, 33, Leo Tate, 31, and Lenton Vanburen, 27.Pack added that while it is unlikely any of the convicts fled the country, they would run into obstacles anywhere trying to run, as there are agencies nationwide and around the world assisting in locating them."You can't outrun the feds, and you can't outrun the FBI or the Marshals Service, because they have offices around the country and indeed, around the world," Pack said. "So even if they do happen to make it to another country I'm not suggesting that that's what's happened yet but if they had to do that, the FBI and the Marshals and federal law enforcement have liaisons in other countries that are able to step in and help them even though they don't have jurisdiction there."So you can run, you can hide, but you can't hide forever. And just because this case may lose traction in the media, it's not going to lose traction with law enforcement."Pack added that having no incidents reported since the inmates escaped has been a "miracle in itself.""The fugitives get desperate out there and so when they feel the pressure, and they're feeling the heat, sometimes they act in desperation. So hopefully they'll continue not to. It's possible and likely that they have people on the outside that are helping them hide out in these matters," Pack said."Police dont want this to end with anyone getting injured, including the escapees. The goal is to find them, surround them, and bring them in without any drama," Pack continued. "Thats what officers train for. Its not about chasing headlines. Its about doing the job carefully and professionally, even when the public is watching."Fox News Digital's Peter D'Abrosca, Michael Dorgan and Alex Koch contributed to this report.
