 Former Kennedy Center employees allege leadership delayed roof repairs before citing safety issues in closure decision Former Kennedy Center employees allege that the venue’s leadership knew about serious structural problems well before citing newly discovered hazards as the reason for its abrupt closure this month. The claims were outlined in a letter to Congress from a lawyer representing anonymous whistleblowers. The letter accuses the center’s executive director and chief operating officer, Matt Floca, of failing to prioritize roof repairs and stopping a funded repair plan in April. Floca disputes the allegations, saying recent inspections revealed that water damage had spread farther into the building than officials previously knew.

A FORMER NORTH CAROLINA COP WHO ALLEGEDLY PLOTTED A MASS SHOOTING TARGETING BLACK PEOPLE AT A NEW ORLEANS FESTIVAL IS WALKING FREE. NO CHARGES. (PHOTO).


 A former North Carolina cop who allegedly plotted a mass shooting targeting Black people at a New Orleans festival is walking free. No charges. 


Christopher Gillum, 45, of Chapel Hill, North Carolina, was arrested in April 2026 at a Destin, Florida hotel. According to the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office, deputies recovered a handgun and roughly 200 rounds of ammunition from his room. Authorities said he was heading to a large festival in New Orleans. The timing lined up with Jazz Fest.


His own family had reported him missing and told police he had expressed recent threats to harm “Black people.” He was wanted in Orleans Parish on terroristic threats. Multiple agencies across North Carolina, Florida, and Louisiana scrambled. The arrest stopped him before he reached Louisiana.


Then in June, a Louisiana grand jury declined to indict him on the state terrorizing charge that could have brought up to 15 years. He was released. Charges were dropped. His lawyer says he’s facing nothing in any jurisdiction. 


Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill’s office later pointed to jurisdictional problems and said the statements to family were vague and didn’t clearly show intent to commit crimes inside Louisiana. They also noted he never actually made it into the state until after the arrest.
