| Charges dropped against NOLA beating victim
Well ain't that, as we useta say, mighty white of 'em!  http://tinyurl.com/rrxdp Charges dropped against New Orleans man Apr. 10, 2006. 05:10 PM ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW ORLEANS — Prosecutors have dropped charges against a retired teacher who was beaten by New Orleans police during an arrest caught on videotape shortly after hurricane Katrina, he and his lawyer said Monday. Robert Davis, 64, had been charged with public intoxication, resisting arrest and battery on a police officer. City prosecutors did not immediately return a call for comment. The Oct. 8 beating by three police officers was captured on video by an Associated Press Television News crew covering the aftermath of the hurricane. Davis had returned to New Orleans to check his property following the Aug. 29 storm. He said he was looking for a place to buy cigarettes in the French Quarter when police grabbed him. "I haven't had a drink in 25 years," Davis said Monday. "I still don't know what started it or why it happened." Two fired officers and one current officer have been charged in the beating.
