The Lunch Line: More nursing home news and Emeril's return

By Jerry DiColo | Metro editor


NURSING HOME SCANDAL: The number of nursing-home residents who died after spending the aftermath of Hurricane Ida in abhorrent conditions at a former Tangipahoa pesticide factory has risen to 15, authorities said Thursday. Only five of those deaths under the care of nursing-home operator Bob Dean are said to be "storm related," though authorities said the number could rise.


GATOR UPDATE: The St. Tammany Parish Coroner has identified the remains found after capturing an alligator believed to have killed Timothy Satterlee Sr. Here's the story from the north shore.


EMERIL IS BACK: Emeril's Restaurant is re-opening. Ian McNulty reports there will be some old standards along with a bunch of changes aimed at creating a new chapter in the story of the celebrity chef's flagship restaurant.
