Most New Orleans thing ever?

This thread blows.

Blind link
No synopsis

BOOOOOO

Edit: Unless the most New Orleans thing ever is starting a thread about New Orleans with a blind link. Then I apologize

OP, no explanation much less quote, plus a blind link, is a terrible way to start a thread.

That said, the story is interesting enough. I can't vouch for the background or accuracy of the source, Louisiana Illuninator, but it claims:

Orleans sheriff says she missed campaign report deadline because her attorney was incarcerated

Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson successfully argued Friday that she shouldn’t have to pay the full fine for missing a campaign reporting deadline because her attorney was incarcerated at the time.

The Louisiana Board of Ethics voted to reduce Hutson’s fine for filing the annual report for the Orleans Jedi Guardian political action committee, where she is the chairperson, three weeks late....

The board was apparently swayed by Hutson’s explanation that she didn’t realize the PAC’s attorney, Jimmy Burland, was behind bars and couldn’t file the paperwork on time....

A longtime Louisiana lobbyist, Burland pled guilty to federal charges of possessing child pornography in November 2024 ....

Hutson, who lost her reelection campaign earlier this month ....

The PAC only took in one donation during the entirety of 2024 — $275 from Hutson herself — and only had $97 available in its account at the end of last year ....
