This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program that brings all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve together to minimize violent crime and gun violence and make our neighborhoods safer for everyone. The Department launched a violent crime reduction strategy to strengthen PSN on May 26, 2021, based on the following core principles: fostering trust and legitimacy in our communities, supporting community-based organizations that help prevent violence in the first place, setting focused and strategic enforcement priorities, and measuring the results.
US Attorney Evans commended the USPS Inspection Service and the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office for their work in investigating this matter. US Attorneys Rachal Cassagne and Dall Kammer are prosecuting the case.
