Ex-New Orleans Democrat Mayor Ray “Chocolate City” Nagin On Trial For Bribery

This was the incompetent and corrupt mayor of New Orleans that let hundreds of school busses sit idle while thousands city residents were desperately trying to flee Hurricane Katrina.  Of course the corrupt media was to happy blaming President Bush and allowed Nagin to escape the blame he fully deserved.    

HuffingtonPost reports former New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin is going on trial on federal bribery charges.

The trial is scheduled to start Monday. Nagin is at the center of a corruption case that mushroomed at the end of his second term and led to several other guilty pleas or convictions.

Prosecutors allege that the 57-year-old Nagin accepted free trips and more than $200,000 in bribes from contractors in exchange for helping them secure lucrative city contracts.

Nagin was first elected in 2002 on a platform to curb corruption at City Hall.
