NOLA Evidence Room Cleaned Too Thoroughly

The Times-Picayune reports that another case is now in jeopardy because of evidence that was mistakenly destroyed in an overzealous cleanup of the NOPD Central Evidence and Property Room. "It has been determined that evidence in at least nine more cases is missing or was destroyed." New procedures have been implemented to prevent mistakes from occurring again.
