Dibble and Alan Yochelson, head of the unit that prosecutes police officers for the district attorney’s office, declined to comment outside the courtroom.

Those numbers, however, don't amount to much in the grand scheme, given the rate at which Louisiana "incarcerates and prosecutes and entangles people in the criminal legal system left and right every day," Romero said.

Feldstein Soto recently launched her campaign for a second term heading an office that prosecutes misdemeanors, defends the city against lawsuits and drafts legislation.
