2nd ex-cop charged in Katrina coverup


www.msnbc.msn.com
A second ex-New Orleans officer charged in an alleged conspiracy to cover up a deadly police shooting of unarmed residents after Hurricane Katrina is expected to plead guilty, a person familiar with the case said Tuesday.

A federal court filing Tuesday charges former detective Jeffrey Lehrmann with misprision of a felony, which meant he had knowledge of a crime and didn't report it. It said he "knew of a conspiracy among police officers to obstruct justice," helped conceal the conspiracy, helped create false reports and provided false information to federal investigators.

That police torture case is horrifying.

I guess waking up to this once-hidden side of America, is just part of living in the Information Age.

I can definitely see the technology of today (leaks/anonymous whistleblowers) being a HUGE threat to our corrupt leaders/law enforcement...

Sometimes it feels like our government is no better than those corrupt 3rd world ones that we grew up hearing about, and then being told to be thankful we are in the Land of the Free.

How much can we take? lol

More evidence of corruption within the system. Cover-ups, murder, bribery, and etc. influence our leaders greatly!
