Two NOPD Officers on Trial Today for Katrina Convention Center Killing No, that's not a misprint, and you're not having deja vu. Today, the feds are putting yet more NOPD officers on trial for their alleged role in a civillian death in post-Katrina New Orleans. The pair of officers - Ronald Mitchell and Ray Jones - are accused of lying about shooting Jacob Brumfeld while patrolling on Convention Center Blvd. on Sept. 2, 2005. They are charged with perjury and obstruction of justice, not the tough-to-prove civil rights violations that the cops in the Danziger and Glover cases were convicted on. Coverage: Da Paper, WWL and a nice, neat summary of the case at ProPublica.
