Well, this story isn't really breaking nationally, yet it's pretty big news here in NOLA. (New Orleans, LA) For those of you in the dark, after hurricane Katrine hit NOLA in '05, 7 NOLA police officers killed a few unarmed men stuck on the Danziger Bridge. They were charged locally with murder, but the conspiracy of the NOLA PD led to the case falling apart. I'm kind of surprised that this story isn't getting more coverage due to the fact of the amount of press here for the BP disaster.
