There was a great first person report on this weeks (September 13?, 2005)
"Law Report" about the situation in NOLA.

An Australian lawyer, working for an anti-Death Penalty group in
New Orleans described the situation there during and before the
evacuation.

http://www.abc.net.au/rn/ and go to the Law Report where, (for the
next few days), you can get streaming audio or a podcast. Or read the
transcript when they get around to transcribing it.
