The Louisiana town of Westlake got its first new mayor in 24 years and first-ever black mayor in November, but he was found shot dead Saturday night.
The body of Gerald Washington, a 57-year-old Vietnam veteran, was found next to his pickup truck and the murder weapon near a local school. Cops are doing a murder investigation.
All current and past city council members were called to the crime scene for some reason. Is any politician safe from the assassins?
