From [HERE] and [MORE] The New Orleans Police Department has fired a lieutenant who was a government witness in the case against other current or former officers charged in a deadly shooting after Hurricane Katrina.
Glover was fatally shot by an NOPD officer days after Hurricane Katrina. Officer Gregory McRae then set fire to the car containing Glover's body, incinerating the remains on the batture of the Mississippi River levee in Algiers. After he was granted immunity, Lt. Joseph Meisch testified that he saw Officer McRae, laughing after he burned the body of 31-year-old Henry Glover. Meisch didn't report it to a superior, file a report, notify anyone or otherwise show any human concern for what he had witnessed.
A jury convicted a former officer, David Warren, of shooting Glover less than a week after the 2005 storm. McRae was convicted of burning his body, while former Lt. Travis McCabe was found guilty of writing a false report on the shooting.
