Over the past decade, the Kenner Police Department has faced several allegations of misconduct and excessive force. Notably, a court ruling highlighted numerous citizen-initiated use of force complaints over a five-year period, pointing out issues with the department’s record-keeping and superficial investigations. Specific statistics on the total number of disciplinary actions, types of violations, and typical punishments are not publicly detailed. However, incidents like the 2020 case involving Jacinta Danks and the 2016 fatal shooting of Armond Brown have brought attention to the department’s practices and accountability measures.
