Lawsuit over Crime Cams
This is wonderful the company that had the contract for the crime cams is suing the city. Nagin said in his speech the other night that they had walked off the job.
The company, Southern Electronics and partner company Active Solutions were hired in 2004 to install and maintain the cameras. And their lawyer told WDSU that they didn’t walk off the job. He said the city’s old chief technology officer, Greg Meffert, tried to steal their design and concept.
The result: Southern Electronics has sued Meffert, companies with which they allege he was affiliated and the lawsuit names Nagin too.
Never a dull moment at New Orleans City Hall.
