Congratulations New Orleans, you are now Number One and Crowned The Murder Capital of the United States.
Just out of curiosity, which political party controls New Orleans.
Depending on who you talk to, but it seems New Orleans is down to 500 patrolmen for the whole city and 3 shifts 24/7. The whole department is down to 950 people with an authorized strength of 1800. The folks in NO are lucky. In 10 years I predict there will be ZERO patrolmen and a ghost of a detective and administrative staff. They are getting what they voted for. This gives Mardi Gras a whole new meaning.
