AZ — John Wooden recruited him to play basketball at UCLA while Branch Rickey wanted him to play baseball for the Brooklyn Dodgers
He was teammates with Hall of Famers Willie Mays
Ernie Banks and Larry Doby during his playing career
He managed Hall of Famers Billy Williams and Bruce Sutter
Welcome to the beautiful life of <a href=https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/m/marshji01.shtml target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">Jim Marshall</a>
Marshall is an original member of the infamous 1962 <a target=_blank href=https://sportsdata.usatoday.com/baseball/mlb/teams/new-york-mets/245 data-autotag=8dacea54-eb21-46b7-9478-3fd32c7f3b10>New York Mets</a>
and will be honored Monday night as the oldest living Met before their game against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field
“I worked in baseball for 70 years," said Marshall
His greatest memory of that historic season where the Mets went 40-120 and produced the most losses in a single season until the <a target=_blank href=https://sportsdata.usatoday.com/baseball/mlb/teams/chicago-white-sox/228 data-autotag=d5333560-8140-4679-b3e4-0675efb2456e>Chicago White Sox</a> toppled it last year
“Opening Day at the Polo Grounds," Marshall says
they booed the hell out of me because Gil Hodges wasn’t playing
Rufus James Marshall, who has gone by his middle name since attending Compton High School, spent five years in the major leagues as a first baseman and pinch-hitter. He played three years in Japan for the Chunichi Dragons. He managed the <a target=_blank href=https://sportsdata.usatoday.com/baseball/mlb/teams/chicago-cubs/240 data-autotag=169a23b0-8bb2-4c7f-af0b-d101e2b1557d>Chicago Cubs</a> for three years and Oakland Athletics for a season
He scouted nearly 25 years for the Arizona Diamondbacks
He spent two hours with USA TODAY Sports talking about his life
his fondest memories and favorite funny moments from his 70-year professional baseball career
Casey Stengel's trouble with names“Casey was so bad with names, and when I was playing for the Mets, he kept calling me Blanchard. There was a <a href=https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/b/blancjo01.shtml target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">[Johnny] Blanchard</a> with the Yankees where he managed before
“One day I’m in the batter’s box at the Polo Grounds
'All of the players are in the middle of the so shoot for the lines.’ I guess it made sense
The batter ahead of me had dug a pretty good hole in the batter’s box
'Make it nice and comfortable because that’s where you’re going to be [expletive] laying
I think he means it.' Sure enough he knocked me down on my [butt]
Ichiro family fandom“When I was scouting the Pacific Rim, I saw <a href=https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/2025/01/23/ichiro-suzuki-hall-of-fame-cooperstown/77908827007/ target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">Ichiro [Suzuki]</a> a lot
and he told me that his dad was a huge Chunichi Dragons fans and actually has a picture of me in their house
the first time I see him when he gets to Seattle
“I remember how he wanted to come to America so bad
and he used to come and swing the bat right in front of me
The crazy thing is he could have been a great home run hitter if he wanted to
Marshall was the first American-born player to go from the major leagues to Japan
'You don’t have a chance of making this team next year
They had such a love for baseball and nobody ever talked about the war
The only trouble was when we went to places like Osaka and Hiroshima
'Go Home White Monkey,' in Japanese – but the players protected me."
Japanese legends who could have been MLB stars“People always ask me how many home runs Sadaharu Oh would have hit in this country. I don’t know, but I do know that there were some players that would have been stars over here. I’ll never forget seeing <a href="https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=nagash000shi" target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">[Shigeo] Nagashima</a>
They would always come over to the stands and say hello to my wife whenever they saw her
They definitely could have been stars over here
“But after spending so many years there as a player and a scout
I never imagined we’d see someone that big and strong coming out of Japan like [Shohei] Ohtani."
<a href="https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=davis-001lor" target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">Piper Davis</a>
his teammate with the Oakland Oaks in the Pacific Coast League
“I was in the Pacific Coast League and Piper took me under his wing
We would go to each other’s room and talk baseball almost every night
He would tell me so much about Willie Mays and how he helped develop him and protect him from outside influence
Davis played for the Birmingham Black Barons and the Homestead Grays in the Negro Leagues
He was most famous for getting Willie Mays to play for the Black Barons in 1947 when Mays was just 16
Mays credits him in his early development into becoming one of the greatest players in history
Davis nearly joined Jackie Robinson and Larry Doby breaking the color barrier in 1947 when he was signed by the St
Louis Browns and the Boston Red Sox for 1950
“That was such a shame because he was such a fabulous man," Marshall said
“It’s tough to separate, but I’ve got to say <a href=https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/m/mondari01.shtml target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">Rick Monday</a> is on the top of the list when I managed the Cubs. He was such a great, young kid. I was there the day he grabbed the American flag <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbr1hNp-nI4" target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">when those kids were about to burn it</a>
I put you in the lineup so you could do that
now you have a lifetime job with the Dodgers
So now he gives me $1 every time he sees me."
Those are the days you got knocked down quite a bit
I played in Memphis and they had a sign for steamed laundry
'Did you know that Hank Aaron and Eddie Mathews just missed it?' Well
and that was one of my biggest thrills in baseball."
Marshall was part of the first interleague trade in baseball history when the Cubs traded him along with pitcher <a href=https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/h/hillmda01.shtml target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">Dave Hillman</a> to the Boston Red Sox for first baseman Dick Gernert on Nov
So they traded me in spring training to Cleveland
Now the trade is over and I’ve got to go back to the Red Sox
So the general manager comes over and tells me
my wife is swimming over in the apartment right beyond right field
and by the end of the day I’ll find a team for you.' At the end of the day I went to the San Francisco Giants
I got a nice letter from him later on apologizing
“I went to the Chicago White Sox when Larry Doby [the first Black player in American League history] was there
He was a great player and an awfully nice man."
“It had to be Wrigley Field, and that’s when they still had people sitting in center field with white shirts. It was tough to see. But my very first game there as a Cub in August 1958, I hit three home runs in one day. I hit <a href=https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CHN/CHN195808241.shtml target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">two in the first game of the doubleheader</a> against the Phillies
and they were forced to put me in the second game
I only hit two more homers the rest of the season
“I still remember sitting on the bench in Chicago
We’re playing the Giants and there’s a young guy sitting next to me on the bench
things are going to get better.’ It was Billy Williams
they somehow found out that we were stealing signs
they decided that Banks would be the target
they hit him right in the middle of the back
and could barely walk up the flight of stairs up to the clubhouse
He went around the bases without saying a word
It was the final day of the 1976 season and Cubs infielder Bill Madlock was trailing Ken Griffey Sr
While Griffey was kept out of the lineup to help preserve his batting title
“I got a call from upstairs and they said to not let Madlock hit
But they explained he just went ahead of Griffey.’
“I went to Madlock to tell him and he asked why
it was the first time in my life I took a guy out of a game who was 4-for-4."
and he comes right down after the game and offers me a scholarship
'I want you to be my point guard.’ I thought about it a lot
If I'd known I was going to be in the minor leagues so long
“I remember walking out of the stadium one day with Vin Scully
'My neighbor keeps throwing trash over my fence.'
“I got to become good friends with Don Newcombe
and he played a year for the Chunichi Dragons too
tell me about Jackie Robinson.’ I saw Jackie play football at UCLA
He is such a fierce competitor that you can't have fun doing anything with him
He's out to beat your (expletive) in golf or whatever else you want to do.’
Marshall was wearing his 2001 Diamondbacks World Series ring on his left hand and the 2023 NL pennant ring on his right hand at lunch
has a Chunichi Dragons championship ring and Triple-A Denver Bears championship at home
as well as a ring honoring him from the Professional Baseball Scouts Foundation
I met her in junior high school at Roosevelt in Compton
We met because we were listening together to the [1946] World Series on the radio between the Red Sox and the Cardinals during class
She was from Missouri and was a Cardinals fan
I give all of the credit for everything to her
and I can’t tell you how much I miss her every day."
who have a lot of money invested in the outcome
have been paying rather close attention to suspended former All-Star shortstop Wander Franco’s recent posts on social media
The posts have shown him visiting a nursing home
“There is no torment that God cannot heal.”
who insisted that his career is not over in his last court appearance
begins his trial on June 2 in the Dominican Republic and faces 20 years in prison on charges of sexual abuse
sexual exploitation against a minor and human trafficking
Franco has been on MLB’s restricted list since July 2024
and is under MLB investigation for violating its domestic violence
He would be free to resume his major-league career and the Rays would likely be legally required to fulfill his contract after his case is resolved by Dominican authorities and MLB’s investigation
is owed in excess of $150 million after this season
– While the Miami Marlins will wait until ace Sandy Alcantara (2-3
8.31 ERA) starts showing signs of improvement to trade him
several contenders are keeping a close eye on Minnesota Twins ace Pablo Lopez
who returned a week ago from a hamstring injury
$73.5 million contract that the Twins could unload this summer if their free-fall continues
The Twins entered Saturday with more losses than any team in the American League except the Chicago White Sox
and already are eight games behind the first-place Detroit Tigers
– The Cardinals were hoping that hanging onto closer Ryan Helsley the first half of the season would enhance his trade value
but after saving a league-leading 49 games last season
he has only four saves in six opportunities with a 3.60 ERA and a 1.60 WHIP
they still are trying to trade All-Star third baseman Nolan Arenado
The Los Angeles Dodgers have yet to express interest while still hoping that third baseman Max Muncy escapes his early-season struggles
– If the Baltimore Orioles aren’t a contender by the All-Star break
teams will be pouncing on starter Zach Eflin
reliever Seranthony Dominguez and center fielder Cedric Mullins at the trade deadline
– It turns out that the teams who waited out the free-agent market wound up getting the best bargains in baseball (stats through Friday):
– This weekend was the first time Cubs shortstop Dansby Swanson was able to meet up with Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich since their commercial shoot in March
and the first thing he planned to tell Yelich: "You look good in hair."
Swanson, Yelich and Dustin May of the Dodgers <a href=https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJHooMLxQPq/ target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">shot a commercial</a> this spring for DIRECTV in which they appeared bald in the national advertising campaign
“We had a ton of fun," Swanson told USA TODAY Sports
You get to know guys like playing against them
being able to do things like that with one another is
“I hope that you never actually go bald.'"
the former NCAA All-America wrestler who became one of the most successful agents in the business working alongside Alan Nero of Octagon
passed away at the age of 71 after battling cancer
He made such an impact that Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez missed a game to attend his funeral and Bobby Witt Jr
sent out a heartfelt message on social media
“Scotty was more than an agent for me," Witt said
It was an honor for our family that he could represent both me and my dad in our careers
We will carry his legacy for years to come.”
– Remember when everyone thought the Los Angeles Dodgers had too much pitching
they made history this past week when they became the first team in history to use 11 different starting pitchers before May
No pitching staff has produced fewer innings by their starters and no bullpen has thrown more innings
“It’s not a good quality of life," Dodgers pitching coach Mark Prior told reporters
– Future Hall of Famer Justin Verlander badly wants to join the exclusive 300-win club
He’s stuck at 262 victories with the Giants’ blowing his last three games in which he’s yielded a 1.96 ERA
who have lost six members of their opening-day roster to injuries
including ace Logan Gilbert and leadoff hitter Victor Robles
They finished April ranking third in homers (45); third in on-base percentage (.339); sixth in OPS (.754); and seventh in runs per game (5.07)
They entered Saturday having gone 15-4 in their last 19 games
Not bad for a team whose splashiest move in the offseason was signing 31-year-old Jorge Polanco to a one-year
$7.75 million contract after declining his $12 million option
but also a front-office nerd when they acquired Ryan Loutos from the Cardinals
worked in the Cardinals’ front office it its analytics department to help develop an app
"Chirp," that is still in use by the Cardinals
– Has anyone seen the Texas Rangers’ offense
It’s as if they swapped uniforms with the Mariners from a year ago
They have scored three or fewer runs in 21 games this season
enduring their longest drought since June 25-July 5
with only five extra-base hits in their four-game series last week against the Athletics
They’ve squandered their fabulous pitching
the lowest it has been through 33 games in franchise history
the Athletics would be in the playoffs if the season ended today after finishing 105 ½ games out of first place in the AL West the past three years
They have baseball’s third-best record since April 15
– If you’ve got a spare left-handed reliever
Aaron Judge had a slash line of .207/.340/.414 with six homers and 18 RBI in April
and was the unanimous AL MVP winner hitting .322 with 58 homers and 144 RBI
So, what in the world could be in store for him this year by <a href=https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/columnist/gabe-lacques/2025/05/01/aaron-judge-stats-new-york-yankees/83367682007/ target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">having the greatest April of his career</a>
He’s hitting nearly 200 points higher than the league average of .241
and 83 points higher than any player in baseball
He’s the only player in the DH era to lead the AL in all three Triple Crown categories entering May
and only the third player to hit at least .430 with 10 home runs in the first 33 games
joining Henry Aaron in 1959 and Jimmie Foxx in 1932
especially after how we ended the year last year not winning the World Series
there was a lot of work to be done,” Judge told reporters
“All you can do is look in the mirror and try to figure out ways to get better and try to improve
– Who would have imagined that the small trade in December when the Yankees acquired right-handed reliever Fernando Cruz and minor-league catcher Alex Johnson from the Cincinnati Reds for catcher Jose Trevino would pay such dividends
Cruz has been one of the game’s most stunning surprises
And Trevino filled in quite nicely during Tyler Stephenson’s absence
– You wonder how important three-time batting champion Luis Arraez is to the Padres’ lineup
They are 19-6 with him in the starting lineup and 1-5 without him
The Padres about to become even better with center field sensation Jackson Merrill expected to return to the team on Monday
– No pitching staff has been more surprising than the Mets this year
who have the top starting rotation in baseball (2.36 ERA) despite being without Sean Manaea and Frankie Montas
while letting Jose Quintana and Luis Severino walk away
All that for a Mets starting five that currently carries a total price tag of $38.85 million — which ranks right between the 2025 salaries of Zack Wheeler ($42M) and Jacob deGrom ($37M)
– The most underrated player in baseball continues to be Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez
who became the first third baseman in history to hit at least 250 homers and steal 250 bases in his career
– Chicago White Sox center fielder Luis Robert finally started to hit (.346 with three homers
eight RBI and six stolen bases) this past week
the White Sox hope to have him traded by Memorial Day
are trying to become the first team since 1900 to reach the postseason averaging less than 3.5 runs for a season
but yet still have a winning record in the woeful AL Central
– That was <a href=https://www.northjersey.com/story/sports/mlb/yankees/2025/04/27/j-c-escarra-drives-one-out-of-the-park-his-first-career-home-run/83318881007/ target=_blank rel="noreferrer noopener">former Uber driver and substitute teacher J.C. Escarra</a> who hit his first career homer last week for the Yankees
goals that you have," Escarra told reporters
– Kudos to Orioles GM Mike Elias for blaming himself
which is yielding the worst ERA in the American League
The Orioles failed to re-sign free agent Corbin Burnes
and then tried to replace him with Charlie Morton
“I’m in charge of baseball operations," he told reporters
“and when we have a bad record to start the year
– No one in baseball loves PNC Park in Pittsburgh more than Padres manager Mike Shildt
the highest by any manager with at least 25 games at a ballpark in MLB history
who will be a coveted free agent this winter
He is 2-0 with 0.71 ERA and 21 strikeouts in two starts this season at Citi Field and Yankee Stadium
compared to 0-4 with a 7.01 ERA everywhere else
– No one delivers heartbreak like the Cleveland Guardians
who now have 12 walk-off victories against the Minnesota Twins since just 2022
– How impressive has the Cubs offense been this season
They entered Saturday having scored an MLB-leading 202 runs
their most in the first 33 games since 1938
They have scored at least 10 runs in eight games this season
who’s scheduled to start Sunday for the Houston Astros in his first game since the 2022 World Series

Marshall Football Announces Five Additions to 2025 Roster4/30/2025 4:55:00 PM  | Football
– Marshall Football head coach Tony Gibson announced the addition of five new players to the 2025 Thundering Herd roster on Tuesday
The signees add depth to several of the skill positions with two defensive backs
one wide receiver and a kicker joining the team
New members of the Herd include former local standout Zah Jackson
a Huntington High product who has come back to play for his hometown college team
and Cal running back Justin Williams-Thomas
Here is the complete bio breakdown of the new players joining the team:
Jackson comes to Marshall after spending the spring at WVU and was a highly-touted prospect out of Huntington High School where he was a two-way standout for head coach Billy Seals
Jackson won 47 games – including the 2022 Class AAA state championship – while starring for the Highlanders as a two-time All-State First Team selection and the winner of the Carl Lee Award
presented to the state's top defensive back by the West Virginia Sports Writers Association
Jackson had multiple offers out of high school
Etienne joins former teammate Zah Jackson in signing with the Herd after spending the spring at WVU
The three-star prospect from talent-rich Lakeland H.S
in Florida finished the 2024 season with 59 tackles and an interception
Etienne had several Power 4 offers out of high school
Williams-Thomas joins Marshall's running back room after transferring from Cal
215-pound back spent the last two years at Cal after spending the 2022 season at Tennessee
Williams-Thomas has 128 yards on 32 total carries in limited action over three seasons
Williams-Thomas was one of the nation's most-heralded running backs for the Class of 2022
ranking as the 22nd-best RB prospect in the class
He had more than 30 offers out of high school with several being high-major offers
Tamarez joins the Herd from Western Carolina where he played in all 11 games in 2024 and caught 33 passes for 576 yards and six touchdowns for the Catamounts
Tamarez' top game in 2024 came against Montana when he caught eight passes for 229 yards with a touchdown
Tamarez committed to WCU out of perennial Florida powerhouse Carol City H.S
Quinn joins Marshall's special teams after being ranked as the No
1 kicker through Kohl's Kicking Academy for 2025
His most impressive performance came in a kicking camp at IMG Academy in Florida where he went 8-for-8 on field goal attempts with successful attempts from 68 and 69 yards during the camp
Quinn also played Gaelic football for five years
These players have signed with the Herd and will be taking part in summer activities and fall preseason camp for the team prior to the 2025 season

Marshall Baseball Drops Tight 5-4 Contest At Old Dominion5/3/2025 5:21:00 PM  | Baseball
Pair of two-out HRs not enough as Herd’s winning streak ends at 7
<a href="https://herdzone.com/documents/2025/5/3/HerdODUMay3.pdf">Box Score</a> 
– Marshall Baseball dropped a hard-fought 5-4 decision to Old Dominion on Saturday afternoon at War Memorial Stadium in Hampton
Marshall sees its seven-game winning streak end as the Herd falls to 25-23 overall and 10-13 in Sun Belt Conference action
&quot;It was a tough game today for us,&quot; Marshall Baseball head coach <a href="/sports/baseball/roster/coaches/greg-beals/917" rel="smarttag" rev="917">Greg Beals</a> said
leading to too many strikeouts on our part
Give them credit – they had three two-out doubles that scored all their runs
We need to bounce back tomorrow and win a road series.&quot;
All nine runs scored by the teams combined came with two outs on Saturday
Marshall jumped out to the early lead on the Monarchs
building a 4-1 advantage on the strength of a pair of two-out
two-run home runs in the early stages of the contest
A.J. Havrilla continued his strong week of play, belting a two-run blast in the third inning to score he and <a href="/sports/baseball/roster/maika-niu/10058" rel="smarttag" rev="10058">Maika Niu</a> with the game's first runs
After ODU trimmed the lead in half in the bottom of the third, the Herd answered right back in the top of the fourth when <a href="/sports/baseball/roster/nolan-wilson/10078" rel="smarttag" rev="10078">Nolan Wilson's</a> two-run blast clear the left field wall to bring he and <a href="/sports/baseball/roster/elijah-vogelsong/7663" rel="smarttag" rev="7663">Elijah Vogelsong</a> in
The fifth inning proved to be the difference as the Monarchs got key hits and the Herd struggled to plate runners in similar situations
After Old Dominion used a three-run double in the fourth to tie it
loading the bases in the fifth before a strikeout ended the frame
The Monarchs then took their first lead of the series in the bottom of the fifth on a two-out RBI single
The Herd again had its chances in the seventh with a pair of runners in scoring position but could not get over the hump in the loss
Havrilla and <a href="/sports/baseball/roster/eddie-leon/7657" rel="smarttag" rev="7657">Eddie Leon</a> combined for six of Marshall's eight hits in the contest with Havrilla finishing 3-for-4 with the two-run home run and Leon going 3-for-5. Wilson's home run and a single by <a href="/sports/baseball/roster/jackson-halter/10057" rel="smarttag" rev="10057">Jackson Halter</a> were the Herd's lone other hits
The two teams return to War Memorial Stadium in Hampton at 1 p.m
on Sunday to finish out the critical three-game set in Sun Belt Conference action

Herd Baseball Opens Series at ODU with 11-4 Win5/2/2025 10:21:00 PM  | Baseball
Morgan Marshall&#8217;s road to becoming a teacher has been filled with challenges, perseverance, and an unwavering passion for education. The 33-year-old is preparing to graduate from the University of Mount Olive (UMO) in May with a degree in Early Childhood Education and is ready for the next chapter in her career to begin.
“I’ve always wanted to be a teacher and work in the public school system,” said Marshall. “But school was never easy for me. I had to work hard for my grades in high school and at UMO. That has meant making sacrifices—missing social events and pushing myself to stay focused. But I knew I had to keep going to better my future.”
A simple radio advertisement influenced Marshall’s decision to enroll at UMO in the summer of 2021. Intrigued, she reached out for more information and discovered that a former coworker had graduated from the same program. That reassurance and UMO’s supportive environment sealed the decision for her academic pursuits.
“UMO has truly transformed my life,” she said. “My professors and advisor have been incredibly encouraging, helping me build confidence in myself as both a person and an educator.”
Returning to school as an adult student came with its fair share of challenges. Marshall juggles a demanding work schedule with an hour-long commute while managing online coursework. Adapting to virtual learning was initially difficult, but she remained determined.
“Technology has never been my strong suit,” she admitted. “But I had to push myself and adjust. The biggest challenge has been time —balancing everything is tough. Thankfully, I have a great support system at home and at work.”
Marshall’s love for teaching was ignited at a young age by two of her elementary school teachers whose kindness and encouragement impacted her.
“They made school a place where I felt loved and capable of anything,” she recalled. “That’s what I want to be for my students. I want to be the reason a child looks forward to coming to school and enjoys learning.”
As graduation approaches, Marshall is eager to take the next step in her career. She aspires to teach kindergarten in the public school system, ideally at the same elementary school she once attended.
“My goal is to use what I’ve learned at UMO to make a difference in early childhood education,” she said. “I want to retire knowing I impacted children’s lives, just like my teachers did for me.”
Marshall and her husband, Justin, share their Fayetteville, NC home with their beloved dog, Bella.
The University of Mount Olive is a private institution rooted in the liberal arts tradition with defining Christian values.
Your blog is a true gem in the world of online content. I&#8217;m continually impressed by the depth of your research and the clarity of your writing. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us.
Yes! We love Mrs. Morgan! She is such an amazing teacher and was truly a blessing for both our boys!!

The guards carried Robert Brooks into the infirmary face down
holding him by his cuffed hands and ankles
Once inside a private exam room at Marcy Correctional Facility
officers beat and choked him while nurses lingered in the hall
Brooks died the next day at a nearby hospital
Lawyers for the Brooks family say the guards intentionally took him to the infirmary because it lacked cameras due to medical privacy concerns
But unbeknownst to the officers and nurses
a few of the guards’ body cameras were turned on
The footage of a medical setting transformed into the scene of a brutal homicide shocked the public and led to murder charges against six officers
in an attack that started in his cell and continued in the infirmary at Mid-State prison
across the street from the facility where Brooks was killed
Prosecutors have charged two officers with murder in the attack on Nantwi
While beating deaths and murder charges like the Brooks and Nantwi killings are incredibly rare
alleged physical abuse in New York prison infirmaries is not
The Marshall Project has identified 46 allegations that corrections officers assaulted prisoners in medical wings of New York prisons since 2010
according to a review of court settlements
while many others were left with severe injuries such as collapsed lungs and broken bones
three women have alleged in lawsuits that male officers raped them in an infirmary
These numbers are probably an undercount of the assaults committed inside medical units
because many prisoners don’t file complaints for fear of retaliation or not being believed
The Marshall Project analysis didn’t include allegations from lawsuits that have been dismissed
Prisoners and advocates say guards abuse people in the infirmary because it’s tucked away and has areas with no cameras
Beatings in the infirmary of one New York prison were so common
prisoners called the medical wing “the torture chambers.” At another facility
the infirmary was called “the slaughterhouse.”
Many allegations mirror those in the Brooks and Nantwi killings in which guards continued to attack the men in infirmaries after beating them in different areas of the prison
a teacher slashed her own leg with a razor and blamed it on an incarcerated man
A group of officers then beat the man as they dragged him to the infirmary
where officers ordered the medical staff to leave
placed a plastic bag over his face and beat him until he nearly died
The teacher later admitted her report was false and resigned
A prison spokesperson said the man never told investigators about the plastic bag
guards at the same prison escorted a prisoner into the infirmary where they kicked and punched him
leaving him with fractured ribs and injured lungs
“We are regularly told about assaults from staff occurring in prison infirmaries,” said Sumeet Sharma
a director of the Correctional Association of New York
a state prison oversight group that visits with incarcerated people and employees
“There's this understanding that medical staff is not to judge how those assaults happen
but to provide treatment and medical care when those assaults do happen.”
corrections Commissioner Daniel Martuscello III ordered that all security staff with body-worn cameras must record whenever they are around prisoners
“It’s on us to create a culture that isn’t based in violence and respects the lives of everyone in our care,” Martuscello said in a statement to The Marshall Project
The correctional officers union did not respond to questions or a detailed list of findings for this story
medical staff must examine the prisoner as soon as possible and document any injuries
This usually means a trip to the infirmary
But in cases The Marshall Project reviewed
violence that starts elsewhere in the prison continues or even escalates once a person is inside one of the relatively secluded rooms within the medical unit
“The infirmary is the biggest beat up place inside of any facility you go to,” said Leon Lagandean
who said he had been beaten in infirmaries in three New York prisons
He is suing the state for a 2018 assault in the infirmary in Elmira
He said assaults often happen in infirmaries because they’re one of the few areas without cameras
A prison spokesperson said the department is using new software and hiring analysts to identify patterns in areas where officers use excessive force
He said that many incidents in one location would be a hotspot calling for further review
who was incarcerated at Groveland Correctional Facility
while he walked across the yard to pick up mail
Castaldo said he had bumped into one of the guards the day before in his dorm
huh?” according to a lawsuit Castaldo recently filed
The guards then knocked Castaldo to the ground
and began kicking and punching Castaldo and striking him with batons
They handcuffed him and pepper sprayed him before taking him to the infirmary
a sergeant and another guard continued the attack
punching and slapping him in the presence of a nurse
Castaldo said the beating left him with severe hearing loss in his left ear; he said the prison didn’t respond to his repeated requests for a hearing test
stitches for open wounds and X-rays for possible broken ribs
A department spokesperson said investigators didn’t look into whether guards assaulted Castaldo in the infirmary because he only reported being beaten in the yard
The infirmary is a busy and critically important area in a prison
It is where guards take people for medical appointments and treatments
While many beatings began elsewhere in the prison
officers attacked prisoners who were already in the infirmary seeking medical attention
When an incarcerated man went to the medical unit at Sullivan Correctional Facility in 2022 with chest pain
dislocating his jaw and causing permanent hearing loss
The department said that no injuries to the man were reported or noted at the time
His attorney said that’s because he wasn’t given the opportunity to report his injuries
The department also asserted the man wasn’t following instructions and was pepper sprayed and restrained after he lunged at officers
After Matthew Raymond had a series of seizures in 2016
Troy Mitchell and a group of other officers put him
on an exam table in the emergency room at Auburn prison
Mitchell pulled Raymond’s shirt over his face
held his head down and slowly poured a bucket of water over his mouth and nose
Raymond testified that Mitchell then punched him in the face and neck
and beat him in the groin with a baton while other officers held his legs open
Raymond suffered permanent injuries to his genitals and bladder from the attack
He underwent surgery to reconstruct his bladder and may never be able to have kids again
The state settled with Raymond for $1.2 million
Nurse Hoppins examined Raymond after the assault and noted injuries to his face and red marks on his body
but he had on boxers and she did not examine his genitals
Hoppins testified in the case that Mitchell told her he was going to put in his paperwork that Raymond injured his face during a seizure
But Mitchell had shown Hoppins video that contradicted that story
he told her it wasn’t her business since it was a security issue
He’d been sexually harassing her for years
so there was nothing she could do without him knowing
The department didn’t try to discipline Mitchell for the alleged waterboarding
The department did cite him for failing to hand in his state-issued handgun and for emptying a canister of pepper spray point blank into the eyes of another prisoner in the infirmary
Mitchell agreed to retire and forfeit a few months of pay
In a prison medical unit, <a href="https://www.themarshallproject.org/2025/05/01/new-york-prison-abuse-nurses">security directives can sometimes get priority over health needs</a>
and nurses don’t have the independence they’d have in other clinical environments
nurses should stand up for the prisoners in their care
and they need leaders who will back them up when they do
a prison health care consultant and former director of nursing for the Wisconsin Department of Corrections
“Our role is advocacy for the patient,” Muse said
We owe a duty to the public,” and part of that duty is following the ethics and standards of nursing
then witnessing harm and abuse should give you pause
Tucked out of view from most staff and the incarcerated population
and that can leave people vulnerable to abuse
some women have alleged male guards took advantage of that seclusion and raped them
An attorney representing DeJesus in the civil lawsuit declined to comment
Officers were required to use body cameras at Albion in areas of the prison without wall cameras
Albion had a limited number of functioning body cameras at the time
New York prisons began equipping guards with body cameras 10 years ago, but progress was slow. In October, only seven of the state’s 40 prisons were using body cameras, according to <a href="https://nysfocus.com/2025/02/03/robert-brooks-doccs-prisons-cameras">New York Focus</a>
There are now 25 prisons equipped with cameras for every officer on duty
the officers may have thought the infirmary afforded them privacy
since they never activated their body cameras
But some of their cameras were in fact recording during the assault
“There are a lot of atrocities that take place in the prisons,” Brooks’ father
told New York lawmakers during a February hearing
nobody could have told me that these things were transpiring in our jails and in our prisons.”

with over $700,000 worth of needs identified
City administrator JD Kehrman says in an effort to control rising costs
some of the projects are maintenance efforts intended to extend the life of the current surface
Kehrman notes that the projects are drawing on available city reserves
and suggests an alternate funding source may be needed in the near future

An area resident and former state legislator has received a federal appointment for the second time. President Donald Trump has selected David Branscum of Marshall as the Arkansas rural development director for the United States Department of Agriculture.
This will be Branscum&#8217;s second appointment to the position. He had previously served as the state&#8217;s rural development director during President Trump&#8217;s first term. U.S. Sen. John Boozman says Branscum will be responsible for overseeing USDA investments, programs and personnel working to improve the lives of rural Arkansans.
Branscum, described as a third-generation cattle rancher and a member of the Searcy County Cattlemen&#8217;s Association, had most recently served as the Arkansas Department of Education&#8217;s director of governmental affairs. He was a state representative from 2011 until he resigned in November 2017 due to his first USDA appointment.
Branscum has a degree in agricultural economics from the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville.

man was back in immigration court Thursday appealing the federal government’s effort to deport him back to his home country of Indonesia
appeared virtually from Kandiyohi County Jail for his hearing at Fort Snelling Immigration Court
The Department of Homeland Security want to deport Harsono for allegedly overstaying his F-1 student visa that was revoked without his knowledge
It was revoked based on a criminal background check revealing a misdemeanor conviction for property damage and a dismissed citation from protesting the 2021 police killing of Daunte Wright
Harsono shared that he believes his arrest was politically motivated because of the dismissed protest charge

“They still wanna put me in jail for cases already closed, and it’s not fair,” <a title="" class="apm-link default" data-testid="relativeLink" href="/story/2025/04/15/marshall-man-claims-ice-detained-him-for-protests-over-police-killings">Harsono said previously</a>
and you gotta leave the theater right now.’ It’s very corrupt and unfair.” 
Harsono’s attorney Sarah Gad argued that Harsono’s detainment was illegal and requested that the removal proceedings be terminated
Department of State revoked the visa and concluded that she does not have “judicial review” to terminate removal proceedings
“I simply think that the law does not give me the authority,” Mazzie said
“It’s not within my purview to weigh in on the legality or the permissiveness of the Department of State’s decision to revoke the respondent’s visa
That’s strictly within the purview of the federal district courts.”
Exchanges between Gad and Mazzie grew heated over Harsono’s detainment
Gad stated that Harsono is eligible for a green card through his marriage to his wife who’s a U.S
citizen and the two have been married since October 2023
She also shared that Harsono has two pending applications that were expedited
“I understand you’re making an argument with an eye toward fairness
and I understand that the respondent has garnered a significant amount of media attention
and I understand there are very sympathetic circumstances in his case,” Mazzie said
“The most hefty factor is that the respondent is detained at government expense
My termination of the case would be inappropriate.”
Gad stated that Harsono’s “unlawful detention” creates more challenges that prevent him from being able to continue the legal process
“Somebody has to answer this question as to whether or not he should be granted the ability to seek the relief that he is clearly eligible for,” Gad said
“The only thing standing in the way of that is his unlawful detention.”
Mazzie disagreed and stated the legality of Harsono’s detainment wasn’t something for her to decide
“What court has ruled that it&#x27;s unlawful detention?” Mazzie replied
“What court in the United States has ruled that his detention is unlawful?” 
Gad told MPR News on Wednesday that she and other attorneys were filing a habeas corpus petition — a legal request to a federal court — challenging the legality of Harsono’s detention and asking the court to order his release
because aside from him being detained he’s here lawfully and has a clear path to permanent lawful residency and it’s just his detention that is standing in the way,” Gad said
“That’s the thing that we need to try to figure out is how to get him out of detention so he can have the application adjudicated and he can just be with his wife and his family
law-abiding member of society that he’s always been while he’s been in the United States.”
At least two other students were arrested by ICE: Doğukan Günaydın
studying at the University of Minnesota and Mohammed Hoque
Other Minnesota international students have also experienced visa revocations or terminations

Marshall made good on the expectations in Year One with Dallas
Naji Marshall was one of those additions to the <a href="https://www.mavsmoneyball.com">Dallas Mavericks</a> roster coming into the 2024-25 season that had fans licking their chops
After shooting a career-best 38.5% from 3-point range in his last year with the New Orleans Hornets
he’s long and he’s got just enough of a mean streak to stand up for his teammates without becoming a bully
Marshall is exactly the kind of guy you’d bring in expecting to get an offensive bump from <a href="https://www.mavsmoneyball.com/2025/4/28/24416817/luka-doncics-final-season-in-dallas-reviewed">your generationally talented offensive behemoth</a> who creates more shots for his teammates than anyone else in the NBA
He’s also exactly the kind of guy you’d bring in to help mask some of that generationally talented offensive behemoth’s shortcomings on the defensive end
He was a near-perfect addition to a Luka-Dončić-led team
Max Christie and a handful of pocket lint on Feb
when the rest of the roster dropped like flies due to a cosmic bout of injury trouble
His 3-point shooting was the one facet of his game that let him down a little for much of the season
as he ended the year shooting an abysmal 27.5% from deep
That number is more than 10 percentage points down from the previous year
For a guy whose previous high-scoring average for a season was 9.1 points per game
he seemed to be settling into a good spot here in Dallas
He averaged 14.3 points on a more respectable 34.5% from 3-point land in November
December and January were much quieter months
when Marshall was oftentimes the team’s last offensive option left standing in the wake of injuries to Anthony Davis
Marshall and Spencer Dinwiddie shouldered much of the scoring burden in some games that were tough to watch at times
but they kept the Mavs afloat in the Western Conference playoff conversation
7.3 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game as his role increased out of necessity down the stretch
But he proved he could do it on both ends of the floor
and he proved he was becoming a team leader
much like the role Washington grew into just ahead of Marshall
He was willing to do the dirtiest work at a very dirty time to get the job done
He became a fan favorite at a time when many Mavericks fans lost the ability to feel real human emotions any longer
There is a special corner in basketball heaven reserved for guys like Marshall
Though his 3-point shot left him for long stretches, <a href="https://www.mavsmoneyball.com/2025/4/17/24410351/naji-marshall-and-the-floater-from-heaven-dallas-mavericks">he developed a lethal driving floater</a>
Defenders couldn’t deal with Marshall’s combined strength through the shoulders and the 7’1” wingspan on his 6’7” frame when he decided it was time to get to the bucket
It was almost like at some point Marshall decided that
It’s resourceful and shows off the adaptability of his game
his best offensive month of the season by far
was the same month that Marshall’s 3-point shooting sank to a season-low (to that point — it would actually get worse in April) 23.7%
but he was the best player on the Madison Square Garden court
He was everywhere against the Knicks that night
shooting 17-of-25 from the field and finishing the game without a single turnover in 38 minutes
<a href="https://www.mavsmoneyball.com/2024/6/30/24189687/naji-marshall-agrees-to-3-year-deal-with-the-mavericks">Marshall signed a three-year, $27-million contract with the Mavericks</a> last offseason
replacement at small forward but is a much more imposing physical presence and proved to be much better than the outgoing DJJ on the offensive end
and the deal will have Marshall in a Mavericks uniform for the next two seasons
He’ll become an unrestricted free agent in 2027
Will Marshall’s 3-point shot return to him in his second year with the Mavericks
or was his 38.5% mark in 2023-24 the aberration
Even regressing to his own career mark of around 30% would be an improvement from his first year in Dallas
you’d have to squint pretty hard to find any glaring flaws in Marshall’s game
With Kyrie Irving on the shelf with a reconstructed ACL for a good chunk of the upcoming season
the Mavs may continue to look to Marshall (as well as Washington) to provide some significant scoring punch
to go along with his well-established bonafides on the defensive end
but that doesn’t mean he can’t get better at one or two things
Marshall set new career-best averages in scoring (13.2 points per game) and rebounding (4.8) in his first year with the Mavericks
and he didn’t have to sacrifice any of the hard work on the defensive end he’s become known for to get there
that’s something that an offseason spent in the gym can address
adaptable and brings a ton of heart to the Mavs lineup
Lord knows they need a heaping helping of that

Marshall’s Mike Green Selected By Baltimore In 2nd Round Of 2025 NFL Draft4/25/2025 9:29:00 PM  | Football
Virginia native selected 59th overall by Ravens
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – Marshall defensive end <a href="/sports/football/roster/mike-green/9225" rel="smarttag" rev="9225">Mike Green</a> was selected by the Baltimore Ravens with the 59th selection overall in the 2nd round of the 2025 NFL Draft on Friday evening
Green becomes only the fourth defensive player and eighth player overall in Marshall history to be selected in the top two rounds of the NFL Draft
The selection also marks the second consecutive year that the Baltimore Ravens have chosen a player out of Marshall

who was taken in the 5th round of the 2024 NFL Draft by the Ravens
Green joins fellow Marshall defensive end great Vinny Curry and former Herd wide receiver Aaron Dobson as players selected 59th overall in the 2nd round of the NFL Draft
Green solidified himself as one of the top EDGE players for the 2025 NFL Draft with his record-setting performance during the 2024 season when he led Marshall to a Sun Belt Conference Championship
He then further etched his name among the nation's best at the Reese's Senior Bowl practices when he went viral for his ability to merge speed with power, as evidenced by a <a href="https://x.com/herdfb/status/1884645955783262553?s=46">viral repetition against Oregon offensive tackle Josh Conerly</a> before following it up with an eye-opening Pro Day performance in front of scouts and personnel from all 32 NFL teams

was the 2024 Sun Belt Conference Player of the Year and put together one of the most statistically dominant defensive seasons in Marshall and Sun Belt Conference history
set the Sun Belt Conference single-season record for sacks with 17.0 – the last of which he secured during the Herd's 31-3 win over Louisiana in the 2024 Hercules Tires Sun Belt Conference Championship
That mark also tied a single-season record for Marshall University and led all FBS players in 2024
Green led all FBS players in the following categories in 2024: sack yardage (144)
TFL yardage (155) and tackles by a defensive lineman (84)
Green was named as a First Team All-American by Walter Camp and a Second Team All-American by AFCA

Marshall accused the social media company of exploiting children and addicting them to harmful content
fueling a mental health crisis among Alabama’s youth
we join concerned parents across our state to stand up for Alabama’s children
feeding the dangerous and damaging content while lying to parents about how safe the app really is
This platform was designed to addict kids and put profits ahead of the mental health of an entire generation
TikTok’s so-called ‘safety features’ are a joke
They are nothing more than a marketing ploy to trick parents into trusting a product that TikTok knows full well is dangerous
The lawsuit alleges that TikTok’s algorithm is designed to keep minors endlessly scrolling and expose them to content that promotes depression
The lawsuit also alleges that TikTok’s safety measures
such as kids’ mode and safety mode are ineffective and easy to bypass
“Over one-third of its daily users in the United States are fourteen or younger
TikTok’s capture of the American youth market is no accident but is instead the result of a carefully executed campaign.”
It also emphasizes that TikTok is owned and operated by ByteDance
a Chinese corporation that the Department of Justice and Federal Trade Commission sued in 2024 over claims that the company was using TikTok to gather personal data from its users
A TikTok spokesperson provided the following statement Wednesday to WSFA 12 News in response to the lawsuit:
“This lawsuit is based on misleading and inaccurate claims that fail to recognize the industry-leading measures that TikTok has voluntarily implemented to support the safety and well-being of our community
including strict safety settings and screen time limits for teen accounts enabled by default
Family Pairing tools for parents to supervise their teens
and aggressive enforcement of our Community Guidelines on an ongoing basis.”
The lawsuit will seek civil penalties under Alabama’s Deceptive Trade Practices Act along with compensatory damages
