The government is being sued for negligence in Katrina’s aftermath

Dr. Hebert takes exception:

Ms. Freeman’s death was a very famous event. You know her, even if you do not think you know her. Pictures of her body, slumped in a wheelchair and draped with a blanket, made the lead news story on every continent a year ago. She will remain one of the enduring images of Hurricane Katrina in the minds of everyone in the city, and for many people throughout the world. It is a shame to see her memory cheapened by what is nothing more than a money grab.
