NKU students cause stir with 'Rocky Horror' promo at Fort Thomas church

"I would like, if I may, to take you on a strange journey"... to Fort Thomas. That's where church officials asked university students to remove "inappropriate" images taken outside the Saint Thomas Parish ahead of an annual production of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show," a 1975 film famous for its challenging depictions of sexuality and gender. Students from Northern Kentucky University posed "in various stages of undress" on the steps of Saint Thomas Parish without its knowledge or permission, according to an Oct. 30 statement from the church. "Saint Thomas is a sacred place of worship," Rev. Ross Kelsch said in the statement, "and we expect our church and its grounds to be treated with dignity and respect." The photos were taken down after Northern Kentucky University President Cady Short-Thompson apologized to the church, according to a university statement. "Our focus is on using this as a teachable moment about respecting community spaces," the university wrote.

ICE grabs Miami student at airport, holds him for 2 weeks in jail

A Miami University student traveled from his Ohio home to Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport for a Sept. 25 flight. He missed his plane after immigration officials arrested him at CVG and sent him to Kenton County's jail for two weeks. The 24-year-old student – one with no criminal record and a pending asylum application – is one of a growing number of immigrants arrested at U.S. airports in part because of a mid-2025 deal between two government agencies. Federal government officials confirmed the arrangement, saying the agencies are "working together to safeguard the American people." Officials also said the student "grossly" overstayed his visa to enter the United States and that his effort to win asylum does not provide him legal status. At CVG, officials directed The Enquirer to submit a records request, now pending, in response to questions about the practice. With holidays looming and a heavy travel season ahead, the student's lawyer is telling his clients to avoid airports. "I don't feel safe letting those people fly domestically," Cincinnati immigration attorney Matt Benson said. Student cleared TSA line, then encountered ICE The student – who The Enquirer agreed not to name to protect him and his family –
