Consent Decree monitors claim Orleans Sheriff only turning over 1 in 20 requested documents

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson on Wednesday (Dec. 7) was ordered by a federal judge to respond to complaints from federal consent decree monitors and others about a lack of transparency.

A consent decree monitor told Chief Magistrate Judge Michael North they’re only receiving about 5% of the documents requested, one in every 20, which are necessary to properly monitor the sheriff’s office.

Monitors say they have not received reports on prison shakedowns, use of force incidents, and disciplinary investigations. In August, Hutson promised to post weekly jail incident reports on her office’s website, accessible to the public. In the 14 weeks since that pledge, the sheriff’s office has posted less than five of the weekly reports.

Last month, Councilman Joe Giarrusso said Hutson’s office froze the council from accessing jail data that is required to be released under city law, including inmate population numbers, demographic information, as well as the number of arrests and charges.

“I don’t understand the value of trying to hide things from the public that is very publically available,” Councilman Joe Giarrusso says.

Judge North says there is no excuse for not providing the requested information and said instead of trying to fight the technology, copy the information and present it to the monitors if necessary.

Getting jail information was never this much of a problem with the previous sheriff, the monitors said in court.

Bear in mind, getting out from under this Consent Decree is vital to ever improving police effectiveness in New Orleans, which is presently a war zone. And this idiotic new sheriff is drowning in incompetence. Go Figure.
