The Possible Motive Behind Stan "Pampy" Barre's Cooperation With The Federal Prosecutors

It is apparent that Stan "Pampy" Barre is cooperating, with federal prosecutors, regarding the federal probe into City Hall corruption. Mr. Barre' apparently decided to cooperate after he learned that his cohort, Kerry Decay was sentenced to nine years in federal prison. They were both charged with the same offences. He still should receive the same sentence as Mr. Decay. Cooperation does not change his actions. He still deprived the citizens of New Orleans the benefits of the energy savings contract.

The contract was an opportunity for the City of New Orleans to demonstrate the importance of energy conservation. If it would have been properly utilized, during Morial's administration, New Orleans' citizens may have been encouraged to conserve energy too. What a waste. Energy conservation is very important to preserving resources that are instrumental in preserving our environment.
