did a phenomenal job, from responding officer to detective. Detective immediately recognized him. He does this all over Lakeview and third district.
God forbid you leave your garage open in Lakeview at 830am, because some shitbag driving in the alleys will plunder everything he can find. The good news is that if he's caught, his bond will be set lower than the amount he got from selling my drills.

Disgusting.
My friend Spencer Chauvin was killed at 36 by an illegal immigrant on I-10 while serving as a volunteer firefighter responding to an accident scene just past LaPlace.
The New Orleans delegation continues to embarass the city (difficult to do) and the state.
Today, I brought SB 212 before Senate Transportation. This bill would give people regardless of immigration status access to a driver’s license. There are currently numerous barriers to access for people who do not have a current visa or asylum status who need a license (1/2)
@davantelewis
Ridiculous take. Tulane Police did an outstanding job managing that situation.
Davante would cheer them on as they took over buildings....because the money paying for all those green tents and funding Davante's campaign comes from the same exact place.
Skooks is never concerned about the injuries and deaths from shootings but his radar is locked on to the fender bender which occurred grabbing armed felons in a stolen car full of drugs.
Meanwhile, can do donuts in a Charger at a major intersection, with your passenger holding a long gun while leaning out the passenger window, and any charges are refused in New Orleans.
New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell puts state lawmakers on blast for passing permitless carry of a concealed weapon. She says it will not make the city safer.

If you are the friends or family of young Black men/teens in NOLA, it's time to have that talk again, because their lives are in great danger when Landry's shock troops come goose-stepping into the city.

We are working together to identify ways in which we can collaborate to achieve many different goals across our city!
"The nature of those warrants wasn't clear. Juvenile records are sealed."
Remember when we pushed legislation last session to lift this nonsensical vail after one picks up a second felony? Remember NOLA's hard left raging against it? Well here we are. Open it up.
#lalege
The public is entitled to see his criminal history to decide whether the juvenile system did its job, or whether he was "on holiday break." The veil of secrecy over violent juveniles should be lifted NOW before more lives are lost.
ARRESTED:

arrests Brycesion Jones (black male, DOB: 01-06-2003), two teen juvenile black males re: Jan. 17 shooting at Carondelet & Common sts. Each charged w/att. second-degree murder, agg. assault w/firearm, additional charges.

Keep trying to distract from the fact that the people wreaking havoc in the city neither have training nor permits and do not fear misdemeanor illegal carrying of weapons charges.
Fear this mythical group of bad guys who have stayed peaceful...until they no longer need a CCP.
Happy Fourth of July in Louisiana-Stay safe and be careful in the roads, in restaurants and public spaces! You need to be careful not to aggravate people- you never know who is armed and ready to lose their temper. What could possibly go wrong? No training required! Be careful!
An hour ago, New Orleans had a school bus hit by a car and the occupants jumped out with ski masks and guns. "Clean" school buses are way down our list of priorities.
Here's how 3 DAs in New Orleans dealt with career burglar David Louis III. Eddie Jordan in 2008: 10 years DOC. Leon Cannizzaro in 2017: 8 years DOC. Jason Williams 2021: 4 months, credit for time served, immediate release. Arrested AGAIN now.

The "murder is down 20%" crew is puckering up after the past two weeks. 20 headed to 10 fast and the retaliation hits will follow.

Facts: The mayor declined to appear and testify on what she claimed happened, a judge dismissed the matter and held Cantrell financial responsible for the legal fees of the woman she accused.

This should be the standard, not a newsworthy exception, for the next several years. The amount of blighted trash which hasn't been touched since Katrina is ridiculous. Your time to "figure it out" is over. Raze it, seize, and sell to a person who wants to use it.
Yea JP - we've seen all the progress you and the amazing New Orleans delegation have made with the SWB. Shocked that such an effective and rational bunch, so respected by the rest of the state, weren't included!
New Orleans is a clown show.

I know Speaker Johnson is but a humble servant of Christ that’s accumulated no wealth and doesn’t even have a checking account. So why is he wearing an $18,000 watch? 🤔
What a story. Permitless carry doesn't start for 6 weeks. Why does this incident raise concerns? Why wasn't he stopped for illegal concealment since what we're ending is so effective?
@davantelewis
Folks in New Orleans better get their vehicles in full working order. Tail lights, license plate light, brake tags, headlights, etc. Landry is about to send down beaucoup State Troopers and they will have a field day pulling people over. Who knows how it will escalate from there.
A spinal injury could end this Trooper’s career. Sending prayers for his blood and blue family.✝️💙

@eastmainst6263
@FixNOLA
These are facts. We're talking about 200-300 people who need to be removed from the streets and crime would decline by 75%. The police know who they are. They arrest these individuals. Then they encounter them the next day, or sometimes on the same shift.
It's important to understand this in the context of our elected officials claiming the jail has "non-violent offenders" in it and they should be released. Burglary is not a crime of violence. These are the people they want freed over and over. Don't fall for this BS anymore.
@ScottHech
It is made up. They did not secede from anything. This was an unincorporated area, which Baton Rouge could have incorporated but did not, which chose to incorporate.
Can you explain why people who do not live in a city or benefit from its services (police, fire) fund it?
