I'm pretty sure he went to Catholic school most of his life.

38 downvotes, wow!

This guy is clearly misappropriating funds/abusing his power but life of luxury is flying to Tahiti on a private jet and his wife driving a mink jaguar.

His kid drives a jeep for pete's sake!

I think she's a really pretty woman. That pic doesn't do her justice.
But then again I'm closer to her age than most OTers.

Sgt Wayne Winkler was on the tube a lot in the '90's. He seemed to have a decent sense of humor. He posed for a couple of comical pictures with a Yankee friend of mine who was in town for Mardi Gras.

I'm all for this guy getting popped but none of that sounds like a life of luxury.


Having a couple of state troopers at $50k/yr (at minimum) each to continually act as chauffeurs and bodyguards to escort your wife around doesn't sound like a life of luxury?

I was mildly perturbed until I read the part where he was renting suites with state money at Windsor Court at Mardi Gras for his kids and friends. Now that bullshite right there is inexcusable. Seriously, some of the accusations can be reasoned away. Inmate labor being one but renting suites for friends on the states dime is fricking theft. That needs to be prosecuted.

So is this what passes as objective journalism now? Not trying to defend what he did, but there's some pretty inflammatory language in that article.

And interesting fact I actually stayed at that house once in high school, that compound was the shite

The saddest part about all of this is that there are, without a doubt, countless hard working troopers who do the right things for the right reasons. They had zero control over what the bigwigs did at the top, yet they will be viewed negatively by the public simply because of their uniform.

I hope you're joking

From Wikipedia page for Mitch Landrieu:

quote:

Landrieu was born and raised in the Broadmoor neighborhood of New Orleans, the fifth of nine children of Maurice "Moon" and Verna Satterlee Landrieu. After graduating from Jesuit High School in 1978, he enrolled at The Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C. where he majored in political science and theatre. In 1985, he earned a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree from Loyola University Law School in New Orleans.

Also what sucks is that while they were living it up parting and spending money....they weren’t buying needed equipment for the troopers actually doing their jobs because of "cutbacks".

Hey Mike, how's it going?



Close. If he is who I think he is, he has several large law enforcement contracts.

Here's the thing.

Dog walking. Don't give a shite.
Free food. Who fricking cares.
Endymion tickets. I'll allow it.
Cab service for the wife. Call it a protective detail.
Running errands. Don't care.

Moving yourself into state property? Congrats, I hope you spend life in prison.

A little corruption should be tolerated, hell, encouraged to an extent.

But when your hand goes so far into the cookie jar you can't get it out, BURN.
