Harry Lee, dead at 75
The sheriff of Jefferson Parish died earlier today. The Picayune has some good coverage. Hell, his Wikipedia article is worth reading.
He held that office for almost thirty years, nearly as long as I was aware of the word sheriff, and certainly one of the first times I ate Chinese food at their family restaurant.
UPDATE: The New York Times paints an unflattering picture, NPR also weighs in.
