Helen Hill on CBS Tonight

August 16th, 2008 by Loki

(This just came to us via Paul, Helen’s husband. Help pass it around, and remember not to forget. - Loki HumidCity Founder)

Hi,

this is Paul Gailiunas.  I just found out that CBS is showing a documentary about Helen and also about Dinnerral Shavers tonight (Saturday).  It was made and aired last year and it is being shown for a second time tonight, at 9 pm Eastern and Pacific Time (which might mean 8 pm New Orleans time, I’m not certain).  The person who killed Helen has still not been found.  If you can send this email to anyone else who might want to watch it, please forward it.

Thank you,
Paul

5th District Police Station Gets Robbed

NOPD says old 5th District station burglarized — after TV reporters tour unsecured building

by Brendan McCarthy, The Times-Picayune

Friday June 06, 2008, 6:16 PM

The New Orleans Police Department said Friday afternoon it is investigating a burglary into its storm-damaged station in the 9th Ward — after reporters and officials from the Metropolitan Crime Commission walked into the open building to investigate why the build had not been secured.

The alleged burglary stems from a WWL–TV news report that found the 5th District was left unsecured — one door unlocked and another wide open — with potentially sensitive files and internal documents left in plain view.

The NOPD’s Public Information Office issued a news release “requesting the public’s assistance in locating and identifying the suspect(s) wanted in connection with the burglary” of the station. The release states that Superintendent Warren Riley learned of this today from a television reporter.

Within 30 minutes, the station fired back in an e-mail sent to all of the news release recipients. The station refuted the NOPD’s claims.
