The Democrat mayor of New Orleans Latoya Cantrell is facing an FBI probe over allegations she had an 'ongoing adulterous affair' with the former head of her police detail on city property.
Cantrell was seen on security cameras spending hours together with Jeffrey Vappie in a city-owned apartment during work hours. Vappie has himself been investigated over hours he was alleged to be clocking in.
Now, the federal government is reportedly looking into whether the couple abused government funds for personal trips, as the pair have been seen partying from Los Angeles to Scotland.
Vappie's wife, Danielle, alleges that her husband and the mayor have been carrying on the affair since May 2021, the same month that he began working on Cantrell's detail.
Multiple media outlets in the area have confirmed that a 'Mrs. L.C.' referred to in the divorce filings is Cantrell. She became the first woman elected as mayor of New Orleans - which overtook St. Louis as the 'murder capital of America' under her watch - in 2018.
Rafael Goyeneche, the president of the anti-corruption Metropolitan Crime Commission, believes the story has several parallels to the downfall of ex-Nashville Mayor Megan Barry.
Barry and 'bodyguard' Sgt. Robert Forrest attended 10 city-funded trips by themselves without other mayor's office staff present, including to conferences overseas in Paris and Greece and the two to Washington, according to an affidavit.
Both pleaded guilty to theft and resigned after being ordered to pay tens of thousands in restitution.
'Well, the similarities are that you're talking about a police officer, that was part of an executive protection team for the mayor of Nashville, (who) was billing the city for work that he was not actually performing,' Goyeneche told Fox8.

Does anyone see a common thread with these black females who get elected to high positions, like this woman, Kamala Harris, Fani Willis, Letitia James, and many others?
They are all sluts or deviates.
With all the good, moral, family oriented black women out there, how is it that the democrats only select these sluts?
“Vappie’s wife, Danielle, alleges that her husband and the mayor have been carrying on the affair since May 2021, the same month that he began working on Cantrell’s detail.”
Well, now we have a new euphemism: “Working the detail”.
Just another day in The Chocolate City.
“ So...is anyone asking why the city keeps an ‘apartment’, especially one that has so little oversight that it can be easily used as a covert love nest?”
A real journalist would ask that question and a few more.
Sadly there aren’t any these days.

Yep, and they just keep electing the same type of corrupt people. Just as long as they’re a “D”, that’s all that matters.
Blacks seem to be some of the most amoral people on Earth.
The world leaders in Davos ran the price of who’ers up 200%, so one group doesn’t have sleaze cornered.
Drill baby, drill.
“Funny how these folks with diverse backgrounds get elected by ignorant diverse background morons, then destroy the city they run by doing nothing but getting rich, screwing around and blame the non diverse background folks for their problems.”
It’s Leftism. Which is the very essence of “evil”. Lies, corruption, perversion, opposition to truth and commitment to destruction of everything good vs. to creating or preserving something good.
Dem mayor screwing bodyguard... Dem prosecutor screwing a special prosecuter consultant while paying him 3/4 million dollars. What’s out of line here for that/this for a Democrat?
Standard Operating Procedure.
LOL
I seem to be having the same conversation with them over and over.
What about Emmett Till They say. And I ask how is a black man lynched by a white mob nearly a century ago any different than the black mobs attacking white people today.
One black woman even said “oh boo hoo”, when I reported a story that just came out that day about a group of blacks torturing and burning a white 83-year-old grandmother to death
New Orleans Mayor Latoya Cantrell has been indicted on 18 federal counts, including conspiracy, wire fraud, obstruction of justice, and making false statements to a grand jury. Prosecutors allege Cantrell misused taxpayer funds by taking her police bodyguard, Jeffrey Vappy, on at least 14 trips across the country and abroad, costing the city more than $70,000.
The indictment details overtime abuse, first-class travel against city rules, and over 15,000 WhatsApp messages between Cantrell and Vappy, which prosecutors say prove the two were engaged in a personal relationship while defrauding the city. Cantrell has denied the allegations, insisting her relationship with Vappy was professional and calling the charges politically and racially motivated.
If convicted, Cantrell could face up to 50 years in prison. She has entered a not guilty plea.
