The arraignment of "W." actors Josh Brolin, Jeffrey Wright and five fellow film crew members arrested in July after a brawl at Shreveport bar is postponed until January.

Shreveport City Judge David Rabb ordered the arraignment, scheduled at 8:30 a.m. today, for Brolin and others postponed to Jan. 6 to allow for "discussions about a possible resolution" to the case that made national and international headlines.

Brolin, Wright and the other crew members were not present in court.

The film industry is on the way out of Shreveport due to Cedric Glover and Henry Whitehorn with their corrupt police cover-ups. Now it sounds like Mayor Cedric Glover and Henry Whitehorn suddenly want to settle out of court so the videos of the shreveport police abusing their authority will never be seen by the lawsuit-paying public. After the police had to pay Ms. Ganbarino $400,000 in taxpayer money for police brutality, you can bet Cedric the Con Artist will pay off the actors just to keep the real story quiet. Its about time the voting taxpayers booted Cedric Glover and his corrupt police chief Henry Whitehorn. Seems like every week or so Cedric Glover is caught in another scandal while Chief Whitehorn hides in the shadows covering up routine police brutality. But don't worry, Cedric Glover will soon come up with a plan to raise taxes so he can pay off all the police lawsuits...and his bogus city credit card bills. Unfortunately, the joke is on the taxpayers!

YOU FORGOT TO MENTION MAYOR GLOVER SAID THE POLICE ACTED "EXEMPLARY" IN THE WAY THEY HANDLED THE BROLIN ARREST. IF THEY ACTED EXEMPLARY, THEN WHY DOES MAYOR GLOVER SUDDENLY WANT TO SETTLE OUT OF COURT? MAYBE YOU ARE RIGHT, ITS ALL A COVER UP BY THE GLOVER ADMINISTRATION - THAT THEY DON'T WANT THE PUBLIC TO EVER SEE THE VIDEO AND FIND OUT ABOUT HOW CORRUPT THE MAYOR'S OFFICE REALLY IS. BY THE WAY, WHERE IS THE CITY COUNCIL AND OUR "LEADERS" WHILE ALL THIS IS BEING COVERED UP?
HOW MUCH WILL IT COST THE TAXPAYERS THIS TIME? I SAY HELL NO TO ANY FURTHER PAY RAISES FOR CITY WORKERS OR POLICE. LETS CLEAN UP CITY HALL, STARTING WITH CEDRIC GLOVER AND THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.
