I’m not familiar with this story. What’s the cliff notes?
I’ve heard rumors of a lot of NOPD that didn’t actually flee the city running around offing known criminals they hadn’t been able to put behind bars and dumping them in the water.

what happened happened. whatever the motivations were of the victims or the cops, it was an extreme situation and feral instincts took over
NOPD tried to cover it up though, at the end of the day. Other than that I find it hard to blame anybody for anything that happened during those darkest days.

Well, if you pay attention to any of the new videos coming out about Katrina, everyone within NOLA Government and NOPD have all changed their tune.
Nagin just said on a documentary that he didnt declare marshall law and there was no race or murder in the superbowl. The documentary was smart enough to insert video of him saying that though.
Same thing with NOPD chief. He said there wasnt mass crime and that he didnt command to "take back the city by any means" but they inserted that video too.
Lots of attempts to change the past to avoid lawsuits and indictments.

You think there's an alibi that explains away them murdering innocent people but they refuse to say it?

I noticed the other day that The Weather Channel was trying to say that there wasn't widespread crime, looting, and lawlessness, everyone was just doing their best to survive.

Did she inject some Memorial and LifeCare patients with morphine and midazolam? No question, yes, but I’d have wanted the same done to me in those unfathomable conditions.
I knew people caring for patients in there... It was literally a 105° in the hospital. Sewer was coming up through the toilets into the rooms, dead bodies were stacking up downstairs in the chapel, addicts broke in and stole all the food and drugs. The medical personnel that were supposed to be there to take care of that floor, that was owned by another LTC hospital, not even Memorial, didn't show up. Those doctors and nurses did everything they could, for those patients who were being bagged by hand twenty four hours a day because there was no electricity, and they didn't have respirators to save them.Those caregivers being indicted was the crime, not what they did.

I don’t believe these officers just pulled up and started killing innocent people.
Faulcon did. He chased an unarmed, mentally disabled man and shot him in the back at close range.
The other kid who got killed might have been fog of war/caught in the crossfire.

I do, some members of the NOPD are just another local gang with badges
Especially before Katrina. It’s much better now.
I bet OP needs to know “the real story” about Antoinette Frank and Lem Davis too. Two inner city thugs who were given a badge in the worst police department in the country can’t be guilty of murder !

And Pou and those other two nurses weren’t the only ones administering the injections. Other doctors and nurses did the same, but only Pou and the two nurses were singled out for some reason. To me, Dr. Pou was the scapegoat to take the fall in all this. If she went to jail, you would have had to put Nagin, Blanco, and others who failed Memorial in jail too.

Just put out of curiosity has marshall law ever been declared in the US?

for the people who were just walking on a bridge then were chased down and shot at, a couple murdered, for no reason at all.

So why do you think the convicted officers never offered an explanation of the egregious actions that caused them to be fired upon besides planting a gun and starting a coverup?

Also, Pou didn’t even need to be there. The “health care” corp who managed the hospital at the time literally up and abandoned all their patients. Pou volunteered to be there to help where the institutions failed.

The guilty doctor worked for Tenet. Pou worked for the government.
If you pin the murders on a government doctor Tenet doesn't get sued. I'd be shocked if there was no secret payment to Foti.

It’s not just the indictment. Go back and read the investigation reports and Factual Basis for the cops that flipped.
they would have said anything, literally anything at that time to avoid what they would be charged with. (the guys that "flipped") They were facing "issues" UNRELATED to the danziger shooting as well.. btw..

In a nutshell, they rode over there and shot a bunch of people they knew were unarmed
This is false.
what do you base this on..?
radio communications or the lack thereof to draw this conclusion..?? either way its a false narrative.
quote:
Shot some as they ran away, one guy in particular, that I actually knew in real life, shot two of the women, who then dumped over a concrete barrier, ole boy ran over there and lit them up some more, then walked down the bridge and stomped on and shot Ronald Madison.
If you think what they did was ok you are a major retard.
what they should have done was tell the truth.
Would they have been fired? Maybe/maybe not. Arrested and presecuted? No.
quote:
ETA / I was on their side when the story broke. Once the reports started coming out, that is shite that can’t be defended. Yes it was a fricked up time, but they went out with the intention to kill people and did so for no reason.
once again, this is bullshite. They should have told the truth. The reports "coming out" were scripted, that came directly from DOJ employees whom were later either fired/forced to resign, etc. due to leaking BS to the media and misconduct.
They fricked up by lying and covering up a bad situation that they should have just told the truth about.
