Bodenheimer's Plea Frees Co-Defendant

The Times-Picayune reports that Ronald Bodenheimer's plea in the courthouse corruption case "became the ticket to freedom for his co-defendant Curley Chewning." Chewning, a Slidell mechanic, was being held in a halfway house pending Bodenheimer's trial. In other developments, Phil Demma, a Jefferson Parish Juvenile Court officer, is also seeking to cut a deal in the case.
