Energy Efficiency Contract Thief Gets Temporary Reprieve

Stan "Pampy" Barre was granted a temporary reprieve, from the federal pen, during this holiday season. The ex-political operative and confidant of former New Orleans' mayor, Marc Morial is awaiting sentencing for his role in looting from a massive energy efficiency contract that was awarded during the final year of Morial's administration.

Mr. Barre is now scheduled to be sentenced in April. Let's hope he receive the sentence he so richly deserves.
