re: How would you solve the crime problem in New Orleans?

The real solution? Invest immense amount of money into schooling that will hopefully allow the next generation to become positive contributors to society and abandon the idea that you can fix the current generations. Takes equal investment from the other side at home to eliminate the victim mentality, the narrative that crime is an excusable biproduct of poverty and not a communities values. Extremely tall task but it all starts with stopping pretending you can fix adults and putting all your efforts into the young.
