	"description": "Federal police oversight in New Orleans is being run by an official with significant conflicts of interest. David L. Douglass, currently paid by the city of New Orleans to oversee the Consent Decree under the direction of the Department of Justice (DOJ), founded Effective Law Enforcement for All (ELEFA), where he added several former NOPD leaders to his payroll - the very people he used to oversee. This is in direct violation of paragraph 464 of the Consent Decree, which prohibits monitors from accepting employment or providing consulting services that would present a conflict of interest. After stripping New Orleanian taxpayers of millions of dollars, Douglass is now attempting to use these cronies to garner public and community support for rubber-stamping NOPD&#x27;s compliance with the consent decree, despite little data to back up actual compliance. This maneuver allows him to focus on his new lucrative contract overseeing Minneapolis&#x27;s police department following the George Floyd murder. Given Douglass&#x27;s track record in New Orleans, it&#x27;s highly likely that after draining Minneapolis of funds, his organization will rubber-stamp that department as &quot;reformed&quot; before moving to the next city, perpetuating this cycle of ponzi police reform exploitation across the country. Help shed light on this issue and demand that the Department of Justice (DOJ), New Orleans, and Minneapolis stop wasting our taxpayer money wasted on ponzi police reform.",
