Selon Gougoule News, il n’y a pour l’heure aucune reprise de cette information (qui concerne le fonctionnement de la plus grande démocratie du monde) dans les médias français :

Ray Nagin, who served as mayor of New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina battered the city in 2005, has been indicted by a federal grand jury on corruption charges, US law enforcement officials have said.
The indictment, announced on Friday, claims that Nagin handed lucrative city contracts to consultants and contractors in exchange for more than $230,000 in bribes and kickbacks, including free granite for his family business, personal services and free trips.

pardon mais mon anglais cale ici : qu’est ce donc que ces voyages de granite (free granite) pour son entreprise familiale ?

J’ai bien l’impression qu’il s’agit d’une entreprise qui vend littéralement du granite :

Former Mayor Ray Nagin’s business dealings in the world of granite countertops are at the center of a federal probe that last week led to his two sons — and business partners — being hauled before a grand jury. The family’s local granite outfit, Stone Age LLC, is long gone, after being shuttered in early 2009.
[…] and delivering “numerous truckloads” of granite to the mayor’s business.
