A recent court ruling may have dropped the case against the army corps of engineers, but it also pointed to them as responsible for the terrible state of the levees in New Orleans before the Federal Flood. Sandy Rosenthal, founder of levees.org joins me on this program to explain what is happening with the legislative and legal battles being fought in the quest for justice and accountability in NOLA.
The controversial video we discuss can be viewed here.
We Discuss:
- The Jan. 31st ruling to drop the case against the corps.
- The 8/29 Investigation Act
- What has been rebuilt?
- The Army Corps’ investigation of itself
- The current presidential candidates and what they say about NOLA
note: I had a big technical problem in the recording and that is why Sandy’s audio is so distorted. Still, I fixed what I could and on most sound systems, it should be audible.
