New Orleans city workers searching landfill for mistakenly discarded court records
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — New Orleans clerk of court staff are digging ankle-deep through mounds of landfill trash to salvage court records that the city erroneously discarded. 'This is unacceptable,' Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill said in a Wednesday statement. 'I have questions. I'm going to ask the Clerk for an explanation of how this happened and just what records were dumped.' In a statement, Clerk of Criminal District Court Darren Lombard blasted the city for an 'egregious breach of responsibility and negligence' of public records. Photos shared by the criminal clerk of court's office show city workers standing in debris beside an excavator and extracting tattered papers from heaps of garbage. Lombard said he was notified last Friday that containers housing official court documents and been relocated from trailers without his knowledge and, in at least one instance, destroyed. He blamed the Department of Public Works for moving the records and said he dispatched city employees to recover what they could. 'What they discovered was deeply disturbing: one entire container – filled with official Clerk records – had been dumped into a debris field and mixed with general trash,' Lombard said. 'Documents were strewed across the yard, caught in the wind, and scattered beyond the secured perimeter.' Lombard said the records had been stored outside the clerk's office, in trailers and containers, because of the 'long-standing absence of a secure, dedicated Clerk of Court storage facility' dating back to Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Flooding from the collapse of the city's levee system led to the destruction of thousands of criminal case files. Lombard, who took office in 2022, said he has repeatedly requested funding for a secure storage facility. The court records, many dating back to the 1950s through the 1970s, included capital murder and aggravated rape cases, Lombard told Lombard said he has called for a city investigation. Mayor LaToya Cantrell's office did not immediately respond to request for comment. ___ Brook is a corps member for The Associated Press/Report for America Statehouse News Initiative.
