- New Orleans public defender out of a job, deputy constable facing investigation after allegedly soliciting cash to fix traffic ticket
A New Orleans public defender, Lawrence J. Galle, and deputy constable Charles Culpepper face investigation after a source alleged they solicited $400 to resolve a traffic ticket. The incident occurred when Lauren Barron sought to contest a speeding ticket, and the deputy constable directed her to the lawyer for a fee, which she later discovered was unnecessary after paying the actual $161 fine online.
