On this week’s episode, Orleans Parish District Attorney Jason Williams is on trial in federal court on charges of tax fraud.
The St. James Parish Council has rejected a proposal to place a moratorium on solar farm development.
And three years after the John F. Kennedy High School graduation fiasco, extremely similar record-keeping problems were recently identified at another New Orleans school — Sarah T. Reed High School — resulting in more than half the class being temporarily ineligible to graduate.

Our guests this week are Lens reporters Nick Chrastil, Joshua Rosenberg and Marta Jewson.
