Hudson wasn’t anywhere around Louisiana when the initial building was built and so she has no culpability.
The building is only 10 years old, in 2015 Hutson was the consent decree's independent monitor of the jail. Part of her job was to oversee the construction of the jail, she started that job in 2010. She has 100% culpability.

As bad as Hutson is, I think her CFO is worse.

44 checking accounts?!? As a CFO you should find that out within 2 weeks of taking office, at the latest…and deal with it. I’ll go ahead and bet she didn’t open 44 accounts, but my goodness, get it under control. That alone shows the utter lack of leadership and integrity these people possess.
This! How the hell, as a CFO, do you allow the having of closed accounts with money in them? How the hell, as a CFO, are you going to the council to beg for money to fix an issue while you are sitting on a glut of funds already?
I'll give Hutson a bit of a break because keeping her aware of fiscal matters is the CFO's job and it sounds like Bianka Brown is the first and worst broken link in that chain of failure.

State police were finally brought back last summer They had previously been successful but Latoya felt their presence was questionable optics and refused them for a few years
Ahhhhh, ok.
Got it. Well point to whoever brought them back.
I wonder if the city has ever considered how much revenue it stood to make if NoLA was a top 10 safest city to visit.

Troop NOLA is not handcuffed by the consent decree either.
Iirc, their arrests go through the state AG’s office, not some corrupt DA / judges.

Can’t we all just hug and hold hands and sing kumbaya while we celebrate having a black female in charge?

how do you have two women leading crime stopping in the most violent city in America?
The politics are terrible, the work force potential is worse, the infrastructure is poor and the press is brutal. Add to these factors the issue of constant federal judicial oversight and you have an unacceptable challenge.
The police chief is a bit different situation. There is an opportunity for a leftist to get there and maybe do some good - from that perspective.
Seriously, the position of sheriff would only appeal to a grifter rather than a capable professional.
The police chief position would only attract an idealistic leftist porch climber.
Neither is a recipe for success.
I hate it for them, but I see no route to significant improvement in NOLA without adult supervision.
The state or federal government would need to step in for a reboot of the whole criminal justice system.

“In the state of Louisiana, there’s a ten-year statute of limitations for pipe work done behind brick walls,” Morell begins. “This prison is almost ten years old. There’s a real possibility that had the sheriff's office been in BRASS and been able to clearly identify the plumbing company that had done the original work, had they been notified, and had a lawsuit been filed, we would have an action against the group that did the original installation.”
“But because that place it a shite show,” Morrell continues, “There’s a possiblity that by the time they sort through their busted arse records, they can miss the window to sue them. So we can have pipes that are erroneously installed and not have the ability to recover that money.”
Oh snap!!!!

Honest question. Has their ever been a black elected official that worked out?
Posted on 6/6/25 at 8:50 am to Lake08
Kip was about as good as you can get on that front and he still had his issues.

I honestly like the police chief there. I thought I wouldn’t but I think she’s done a nice job.
Yeah she seems to have basically focused on her job.
Take this for what it's worth but I spoke to someone who was on the search committee that selected her. He told me, "Some of the people we talked to seemed good. But she was the only one who talked like a police chief." That is, they all felt she understood the executive function part of the job way better than anyone else they interviewed.

Anyone else laughing that a grown city official is wearing a transformer hat and captain America hoodie?
I thought the same thing. He’s very intentional in showing his captain America shield when doing a video interview from his office. This city is so bizarro.

Hutson on the otherhand is clearly what I will define going forward as a “color selection”.
She's much worse than that.

I do too but Moreno should be good. This really was a missed opportunity with Teedy. This Council with a competent mayor who wanted what is best for the city could have done a lot. JP, Joe, and Moreno could have gotten a lot done with a mayor who was on board.

but he should stop on the plumbing issue. Hudson wasn’t anywhere around Louisiana when the initial building was built and so she has no culpability. In the fact there was nothing in BRASS. Unfortunately, it just hurts his argument and gives her potential opportunity to muddy the waters on who’s responsible for things.
She’s still resisting getting into the system is why he’s pummeling her on it
That's not at all what he said and not what I'm addressing.

When you run for office to lead an organization, it doesn’t matter what state it is in, or what problems occurred before your term begins….you accept responsibility for ALL previous problems. You took the job and all problems are now your problems.
She is fully culpable for everything wrong. JP knows the mess it is, and if she was a responsible sheriff, she’d be having off-the-record conversations on budgets and legal moves to make to straighten up the department.
Your comprehension sucks.
I didn't say she's not on the hook to fix the plumbing.
I did say Morrell hammering her for something that never existed in the first place is a bad look. It dilutes the message.
