As a general matter, I was totally underwhelmed by the NO Police Chief. Inarticulate and not very bright. Definitely a political pick of some sort. In contrast, I saw an interview of a Deputy NO Police Chief [also an African-American, by the way], and he was impressive. Probably has been doing most of the chief's work behind the scenes.
