From Hicks, another day of dodgy testimony on Edna Mahan | Editorial
Today 7:00 AM
If you tuned in for Marcus Hicks’ testimony before the Senate Budget Committee Tuesday, you heard little that suggested meaningful changes are pending at New Jersey’s only women’s prison, the sadistic nightmare known as Edna Mahan, where sexual privateering and other forms of violence have been treated with bureaucratic indifference.
The besieged commissioner of the Department of Corrections offered two hours of pointless platitudes about accountability and his aim to protect the 400 inmates of Edna Mahan, but repeated that culture change takes time, and in the end Sen. Dawn Addiego spoke for her colleagues when she seethed, “It’s been three years, and once again, I’m asking for your resignation.”

The Police Department has announced an internal investigation into the arrest.
According to SDPD officials, the two officers, whose names have not been released, contacted Evans in the 4100 block of Torrey Pines Road about 9 a.m. Wednesday after seeing him urinating outdoors.
On Friday, Evans denied publicly urinating in the coastal neighborhood near Scripps Institution of Oceanography, though he admitted that he was preparing to when the lawmen approached.
While saying he forgave the officers for what happened, Evans, who had a bandage over his left eye, spoke of a need for better relations between police and the homeless population.
