BATON ROUGE- An internal memo obtained by the WBRZ Investigative Unit sent by Southern University System President Ray Belton shows the University has a zero tolerance policy for sexual harassment.

It comes as Belton acknowledged the #Metoo protestors, but has refused to answer questions to the media. Wednesday, they marched from the Agriculture building to the administrative offices demanding that their voices be heard.

On February 1st, 2019, Chancellor-Dean Bobby Phills resigned. The WBRZ Investigative Unit was looking into allegations of sexual harassment at that time when four women came to WBRZ alleging Phills sexually harassed them and the university did nothing about it. The next week, Phills sent out a letter promising his return to the university.

That's when the university confirmed he was coming back. The university couched the sexual harassment allegations as a personnel matter and said they couldn't comment on them.

However, an internal memo obtained by the WBRZ Investigative Unit shows Ray Belton acknowledged the protestors after they marched.

"... there was a #me too march on the Baton Rouge campus. Please know that we see you. We hear you, and we care," Belton wrote.

The letter went on to say, "The university doesn't condone any injustice on our campuses. We take all allegations or concerns of any type seriously."

One of Phills' alleged victims who was too afraid to show her face because she said she has a lot to lose is sickened by the way the university handled the case.

"To allow someone to still receive their paycheck, to allow someone to dictate how they're going to step aside is completely unfair," the woman said. "It's almost like they stood these women up in a line and slapped them all across the face."

The letter issued by the System President says Southern is committed to ensuring the safety and well being of the entire university community. All voices and concerns are welcomed.

Phills's attorney, Willie Matthew Zanders Sr., issued the following statement this week:

"Dr. Bobby Phills is not allowed to discuss personnel matters at Southern University because such matters are strictly confidential.

Any employee involved in personnel matters who goes public with half-baked charges against Dr. Phills violates his right to confidentiality and should be held accountable.

No disgruntled employee has proven any wrongdoing on part of Dr. Phills and should not use the "Me Too" movement to defame an educator with an unblemished national reputation.

Shame on those SU employees !!"

BATON ROUGE- The attorney representing suspected serial killer Samuel Galbraith told WBRZ Tuesday, the trial that was scheduled to begin later this month has been postponed indefinitely.

Galbraith was days away from being released after serving less than one-third of his 71-year prison sentence for the rape and gruesome murder of Karen Sue Eads Hill nearly 30 years ago. Hill was tied to a tree in the Kisatchie National Forest.

In 2017, Galbraith was days away from release when the WBRZ Investigative Unit aired a story about his impending release. The parole board rescinded their decision after our story because the victim's family maintained they were not properly notified about the parole hearing.

"My notification went to New York, and I've lived in Illinois my whole life," Jessie McWilliams, Hill's mother said.

Vernon Parish District Attorney Asa Skinner and detectives from the Vernon Parish Sheriff's Office were against Galbraith's release. They believe he is responsible for the deaths of two other women in the area around the same time frame.

"I know he did one, and I'm sure he did the other two," Detective Kenny Williams said.

Galbraith's attorney Nick Trenticosta out of New Orleans said he believes Galbraith's rights were violated.

In court documents filed in federal court, the state said Galbraith had not been freed yet, therefore it did not deny him of his due process rights.

Galbraith's attorney said there were concerns by the judge about jurisdiction and will likely rule next month on whether Galbraith's suit against the state should be dismissed over those issues.
