Thompson describes the conspiracy by the New Orleans police department to cover up the shootings as “cinematic and mind-blowing. “What we’re learning from the plea deals that are coming out in federal court are that other officers are saying that ‘no, citizens were not shooting, there was no gunfire, the people who started shooting were the police immediately,'” Thompson explains. A truckload of officers drove to the bridge and said that they were fired on by citizens.

The Danziger Bridge shooting, which wounded six and killed two, occurred when police received a call that two officers were wounded under the Danziger bridge. “What we’re learning about the Henry Glover shooting and his death…is that the police report that was generated documenting the officer involved…looks to have been altered, fabricated, changed from its original form from what was originally submitted to the police department,” Thompson said, which makes the Glover incident similar to the Danziger Bridge shooting, that also had fabricated reports. Watchdog definition: A watchdog is a person or committee whose job is to make sure that companies do not act.
