Good morning and thanks for joining us. Here are some of today's top headlines. Jailbreak details: On the eighth day after the brazen jailbreak at the Orleans Justice Center, more details about how the 10 escapees engineered the breakout emerged from court documents. And the attorney for one of the men accused of helping them explained his client's actions. Meanwhile, the arrests of alleged accessories continued. The road ahead: A landmark — but very tentative — settlement was reached this week between the Archdiocese of New Orleans and the committee representing clergy sex abuse victims. But it needs two thirds of the victims to sign off on it, and about half are represented by private attorneys, many of whom say their clients feel the agreement falls woefully short. Stephanie Riegel has the story. The Piano Man cancels: First Wrestlemania, now Billy Joel. Keith Spera has the details on why Joel was forced to cancel the rest of his tour. Thanks for reading.
