Jurors wrap up first day of Katrina bridge shootings trial
Jurors deliberated for several hours in the Katrina era case against former and current New Orleans officers on the Danziger Bridge after weeks of testimony. Prosecutors say unarmed victims were shot without justification during the chaotic aftermath, while defense argues officers acted under fire and feared for lives. Deliberations resume Thursday as the 25 count indictment hinges on possible murder findings and cover up allegations.
