"The Governor et al purposely disregarded the disaster plan. Did the Governor break the law and if so is she subject to jail and then is the state liable for her malfeasance?"
Sounds like a job for a special prosecutor. And while they're at it, they can investigate the whole Landrieu machine.
And while they're at it they can investigate the FACT that Gov. Blanco had the power, under state of emergency, to commandeer every bus in the state of LA to save residents of NOLA. Did she do so on the Saturday before the storm, when it would have made a difference??? NO, she did it on Wednesday, August 31...........
