From the hayride.com: "Cantrell is the first New Orleans mayor to get indicted while in office, though Ray Nagin was indicted and convicted of corruption charges after his second term ended. So that’s two of the last three New Orleans mayors to get in legal trouble, and frankly it’s more than a little shocking Mitch Landrieu never had to face the federal music either."
"It’s a city crooked even by the standards of the big blue burgs. Always has been. But Cantrell is so sloppy and unsophisticated, and her corruption is so petty and unstrategic, when it’s easier to get away with far more theft and graft than she even contemplated, that it almost feels unfair that she’s going to get buried under a federal prison somewhere."
This is making my day. I was born in New Orleans. Louisiana is my home state!

It appears that almost every time they are given a position of authority, they immediately start stealing from the till.
Yes it's amazing - they enter office poor and leave rich!
