The mother of a recent Warren Easton graduate is suing Lula Restaurant Distillery on St. Charles Avenue over an incident several weeks ago in which managers called police after objecting to a bikini top that her daughter was wearing.
La Shawn Butler alleges that the restaurant intentionally inflicted emotional distress on her and her 17-year-old daughter Sanai Butler by attempting to “weaponize” the New Orleans Police Department simply because one of the establishment’s co-owners didn’t like Sanai’s top.
While the NOPD didn’t make any arrests, La Shawn Butler said the owners embarrassed and discriminated against her daughter, who has since been receiving treatment from a clinical psychologist./quote]

[quote]Butler’s suit noted that the encounter with Bourgeois happened exactly one year after a Minneapolis store clerk called police on George Floyd because he suspected Floyd had handed over a counterfeit $20 bill. An officer who has since been convicted of murder killed Floyd while responding to that call, and Butler’s suit said that was still fresh in her family’s mind when the police showed up.

The suit may be new but the story isn't. This happened several months ago.

Was this the place where the manager calling cops was black and one of the 2 cops was black (maybe a black female)?
I am getting all these stories of black fragility mixed up at this point, so I may be thinking of something else.
Edit: I think i was remembering the Louisiana Bistreaux in East Point incident. Thanks USMEagles

You can buy dinner with stimulus money, but you can’t buy decency or class.

I think that was the Louisiana Bistreaux in East Point.
I don't think this chick should have been shamed for that outfit, but it's not lawsuit-worthy.

I think you are correct as i remember the other cop laughing with the group and talking about posting to social media, and searching saw the below in regards to Louisiana Bistreaux in East Point incident.

Madame, I empathize with your situation. My only words of advice for others to heed, to ensure this situation does not repeat itself in the future:
Don't raise a Ho.
