Lock them all up!
Yet another Corrupt New Orleans Area politician just like C. Ray Nagin and William Jefferson.

What? How can this be? Officials corrupt? From the upstanding city whose police force ran away during Katrina? You had better check Price’s freezer!!!!
You can’t find a level of government in this country anymore that is not corrupt.
A few months ago this A-Hole driving drunk crashed a toll both on the causeway and demanded that the cops that pulled him over not arrest him because he was the mayor.
The Louisiana solution was to fire the cops involve in the incident.
Hopefully Price will go down but he again is no different than Nagin or William Jefferson.
Crooked politicians in LA. NO WAY!!!!! I’m SHOCKED!!
Aw jeez, you really don’t know anything about Louisiana if you paint this as a New Orleans suburb the same as the city.
Yeah! The free meals were at LeProvence and Trey Yuen, not Commanders and Five Happiness.
Being that a large number of people that live in Mandeville commute over the causeway to work in New Orleans and that Mandeville in within the New Orleans media market, it is obvious that Mandeville is a New Orleans suburb.
And then there is Eddie Price who is as corrupt as C. Ray Nagin and William Jefferson.
Yes, Mandeville is a suburb of New Orleans.
If that is not the case, why did I see all those cars on Friday afternoon on Causeway Blvd. lining up to cross the causeway to go home to the suburb of Mandeville?
No party affiliation mentioned, means he’s a democRAT
He is a Republican.
The point is, Mandeville does *not* have a history of tolerating the sort of corruption found in New Orleans. That's one of the reasons why people choose to live there and deal with a long commute into the city.
I expect the pols in Orleans and even Jefferson to be corrupt but I expect better on the Northshore. However, Price has not only been implicated in these thefts but has also been DWI and crashed a toll gate and had three LEO’s fired for stopping him.
Dude Looks like he wants to sell me life insurance.
I’ve signed for group dinners at Trey Yuen and it’s not cheap.
I think his father is Tulane football legend Eddie Price, who owned a hamburger joint near Freret and Broadway in the 60s. Not sure, but I think he may have been killed in a robbery.
Fine dining on the taxpayers’ tab...PRICELESS!
Dontcha just love and hate New Orleans?
Now that you mention it, I think his dad may have been a coach for Tulane.
Hamburger joint at Freret and Broadway? Mush have been before my time or something I missed as that is just a few blocks from my New Orleans house.
i would have thought people live there because it makes no sense to live below sea level
Perhaps, but living in southern St. Tammany Parish is pretty much the same as living along the Mississippi coast. There's no "bowl" to hold the floodwater, but under the right conditions, anything south of I-10/I-12 is vulnerable.
The Mandeville/Covington area is where many of the folks who don't feel welcome in "Chocolate City" moved over the past three decades. It hs continued to grow because, unlike Orleans Parish, it's not squished betwen the river and the lake.
