Ouachita Parish Courthouse Gets Upgrade

The News-Star reports on renovations that will take place at the Ouachita Parish Courthouse as a result of ceiling that fell in July.

[A Monroe engineer's] report basically states that the deterioration of the plaster ceilings and wire mesh "is probably caused by the flooding of the floors at numerous times by the prisoners flooding the jail floor above, roof leaks and leaking pipes in the public restrooms."
