Comprehensive statistics about agency-wide disciplinary actions, patterns of misconduct, use-of-force incidents, and any department-wide corruption or scandals are not readily available for the Metairie Police Department. However, broader issues in Louisiana’s law enforcement oversight have been reported. For instance, a 2023 investigation highlighted that Louisiana has averaged about one officer decertification per year over the last half-century, compared to states like Georgia, which decertify approximately 800 officers annually. This indicates a potential lack of accountability mechanisms within the state’s law enforcement agencies.
