Otherwise he would have!

Perhaps he can assist them, as part of a plea bargain, in obtaining indictments and convictions of those who squirreled away the $500 million of federal funds that were sent to Louisiana several years before Katrina to "study" the wetlands at the mouth of the Mississippi to save it from a devastating hurricane and for the improvement of the dike system by the Corps of Army Engineers to save New Orleans from flooding from the surge of a hurricane.

Every state and every big city has some level of corruption.

But what the fuck is it with New Orleans and Chicago specifically and Louisiana and Illinois generally?

Those two pairs for cities/states seem to be in a class by themselves.

True that!

And it's been the case for a long, long time.

Oh, well, at least Nagin didn't get caught with $90K stuffed into his freezer like former N'Awlins congressman William Jefferson:

Now that gives a whole new meaning to the term "cold cash!"

Just a little reminder



Quote:
NEW ORLEANS -- Former New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin was indicted Friday on charges that he used his office for personal gain, accepting payoffs, free trips and gratuities from contractors while the city was struggling to recover from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina.

The federal indictment accuses Nagin of accepting more than $160,000 in bribes and truckloads of free granite for his family business in exchange for promoting the interests of a local businessman who secured millions of dollars in city contract work after the 2005 hurricane.

Nagin, 56, also is charged with accepting at least $60,000 in payoffs from another businessman, Rodney Williams, for his help in securing city contracts for architectural, engineering and management services work.

The indictment also accuses Nagin of getting free private jet and limousine services to New York from an unidentified businessman. Nagin is accused of agreeing to wave tax penalties that the businessman owed to the city on a delinquent tax bill in 2006.
Quite an upstanding pillar of the community right there.
