Federal judge grants sustainment, marking near-end to NOPD consent decree
SUMMARY: The New Orleans Police Department is entering the sustainment period of its federal consent decree, marking a shift after over ten years of oversight. U.S. District Court Judge Susie Morgan acknowledged significant compliance and approved a two-year probation phase with reduced federal supervision. However, New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell and Attorney General Liz Murrill attempted a last-minute push to terminate the decree, which was denied. Concerns remain, particularly regarding unresolved issues in sexual assault and domestic violence cases. Despite ongoing challenges, NOPD Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick is committed to achieving full compliance and restoring community trust. Murrill plans to appeal the court’s decisions.
