Pou is going on the offensive, wonder if she has a case against the prosecutor who looks like Lindsey Graham with Waxman's nose?

She now has the civil cases to deal with--which have a lower standard of evidence. But she also has a lot of community support.

Could be there's a book in this! I remember watching the airlifting of these patients (looks like she couldn't kill all 34.../sarc) days after the flood. These were all patients who could not be moved from the hospital...she lost 4 out of 34 in a flood with no utilities/supplies/communication...

“wonder if she has a case against the prosecutor”

I remember hearing about a prosecutor from North Carolina who went after some people too.

Image and video hosting by TinyPic Image and video hosting by TinyPic A year after state Attorney General Charles Foti ordered the arrests of Dr. Anna Pou and two nurses on second-degree murder charges, the strange case drags on -- into the state and local election seasons. By Jason Berry Photo by Donn Young "One year is too long without justice and resolution. ... I witnessed firsthand their unwavering dedication and Herculean effort to save lives." — Kathy Green, a nurse who spearheaded a support group for nurses Lori Budo and Cheri Landry The crowd of several hundred that spilled out of the Peristyle at City Park for a 6 p.m. rally last Tuesday was every politician's dream: well-dressed, educated, sprinkled with nurses in green scrubs, doctors fresh from their rounds -- and not a major elected official in sight. The rally supporting Dr. Anna Pou marked the one-year anniversary of state Attorney General Charles Foti's famous press conference in Baton Rouge, carried live on CNN, in which he accused Pou and nurses Lori Budo and Cheri Landry of second-degree murder in the deaths of several patients at Memorial Medical Center, where the women worked in war-camp conditions during the harrowing days after Hurricane Katrina. Signs posted on columns and held aloft in the audience said a lot -- "Dr. Pou we are with you." "Heroes Not Criminals." "Jordan and Foti Gotta Go." After his news conference in Baton Rouge, Foti held what he no doubt hoped would be a celebratory fundraiser in a downtown New Orleans hotel. Public backlash was quick and decisive against the AG, however, by which time he had already handed the case off to New Orleans District Attorney Eddie Jordan, in whose jurisdiction the deaths occurred. With a staff beleaguered by surging drug homicides, Jordan moved slowly in taking the case to a grand jury. http://www.bestofneworleans.com/dispatch/2007-07-24/news_feat.php
