Mandeville mayor Says He Does Not Have A Drinking Problem

This idiot, who was stopped more than once driving drunk, does not believe he has a drinking problem. DENIAL, DENIAL, DENIAL OR JUST PLAIN STUPIDITY

Price said he does not plan to give up the keys to his city car and that the kind words he has received from his supporters outweigh the sometimes nasty invectives from citizens who say he should resign.

Since the Causeway incident, he has rarely had a drink outside of his own home, he said, and he vows not to get behind the wheel again after even a single drink.

Causeway Police Chief Resigns

He first wanted to just take action against the officers involved, now his integrity has been called into play:

Causeway Police Chief Felix Loicano resigned Tuesday after an independent investigation concluded that his "judgment will always be questioned" in the wake of Mandeville Mayor Eddie Price's April 22 collision with a tollbooth barricade.

Loicano was hired in March 2000 to reform the Police Department after a series of scandals, including one in which a former officer alleged he was fired because he gave a speeding ticket to the son of the Causeway commission chairman.
