Warning : Graphic Image > Dead Body Floating (Katrina aftermath) via BBC. I know the above image might upset a few people, but what happened in New Orleans can't be sugar coated. Sources tell thebosh that the amount of human waste on the floors of the New Orleans Superdome, temporary home to thousands of refugees was unimaginable. Police and national guardsmen accused of killing innocent people. "They killed a man here last night," Steve Banka, 28, told the Reuters news agency before he left on Sunday. A body lies face down in water next to the Superdome Death was everywhere, both inside and outside the Superdome "A young lady was being raped and stabbed. "And the sounds of her screaming got to this man and so he ran out into the street to get help from troops, to try to flag down a passing truck of them. "He jumped up on the truck's windscreen and they shot him dead," Mr Banka said.
