Also in bleak news today: Douglas Schantz—the energy executive who disappeared after drinking on Bourbon Street early Friday morning—has been found, dead, in a river.

New Orleans police positively ID'd Schantz this afternoon. His body was found floating under a dock. He may have fallen in the water while drunk, and drowned:

Chief Warren Riley reported at a press conference this morning that Schantz was tracked after he left Razoos Bar and Patio about 2:06 a.m. by various cameras in the French Quarter. He walked down Bourbon Street to Toulouse Street and then to the Natchez river boat. A camera showed him walking along a 2-3 foot-wide gang plank near the boat about 2:40 a.m. when he suddenly disappeared from view. A review of the subsequent 4 hours of tape do not show him again.

The police believe he fell into the river.
