NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) -A judge will try again Tuesday to sentence the subject of a FOX 8 Defenders Investigation.
Elijah Mealancon failed to show up in court for his sentencing last week for at least the fifth time.
He was convicted last year in a case involving a Hurricane Katrina victim who said he took $33,000 from her and never completed renovations to her home.
Mealancon faces up to two year sin prison and a $5,000 fine.
