Shocking News From New Orleans
I don't usually like to tell readers in advance whether my entries are real or fake, but this time I will confirm in advance that this is a real story and, I must say, I am appalled:
"A 64-year-old retired teacher accused of being drunk and resisting arrest, and whose beating by New Orleans police was caught on videotape, pleaded not guilty Wednesday as the officers involved in the arrest denied using excessive force.
A lawyer for Robert Davis said charges of public intoxication, resisting arrest, battery on a police officer and public intimidation were groundless and that they should be dropped. "
