I'm shocked and dismayed. Nagin indicted for corruption.

Not that i'm surprised, but this dude had been through ALOT. I don't agree with his poilitcal affiliation but this dude worked his *** off to try and get that city back on it's feet. All three levels of government were not commumicating well during and after the storm, and Nagin took the fall for most of it. Believe me, he's not the first mayor of that city to be involved in corruption. Paint me as somebody that feels bad for the guy. He should have gotten a medal for the **** he put up with from his own pissed off citizens.

Good point. I think his main reasononing is that it's a federal trial and not a state trial. If someone knows better then me please correct me but that district is more then N.O. and folks from the whole district make up the jury pool. It always seems like the Feds nail the political corruption cases too
You are correct. The US District Court for the Eastern District of Swamp Central pulls potential jurors from the following parishes: Assumption, Jefferson, Lafourche, Orleans, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, St. Charles, St. James, St. John the Baptist, St. Tammany, Tangipahoa, Terrebonne and Washington.
