This article which was written by Mary Foster deals with murder rate shift in New Orleans suburb after Hurricane Katrina. After Hurricane Katrina, an irregal drug rade was blown out there but the murder rate increased in the suburb of Jefferson Parish. For example, thirty-five people had been murdered in the parish as of Tuesday night. Surprisingly, Most of the victims and the accused were under the age of 30. On the other hand, Many people want to move to parish instead of New Orleans. This population shift has caused the drug market to shift.
