Results of an investigation into the 2006 incident involving Mandeville police officers who failed to issue Mayor Eddie Price a citation for driving while intoxicated are in, but currently, no one is talking.

Howard Daigle of the law firm Daigle Fisse & Kessenich, the council’s attorney, probed the police department and the city’s vehicle policy.

Mayor Pro Tem Trilby Lenfant said the City Council is currently going over the report, and once members have reviewed it, findings will be made public. She refused to comment on the report at this time.

The investigation began earlier this year after an incident on the Causeway prompted two Mandeville police officers to report to Police Chief Tom Buell they encountered an allegedly intoxicated Price two years ago along Monroe Street after he drove into oncoming traffic. They did not report the incident at the time.

Instead of testing Price for intoxication with a field sobriety test, they drove him to City Hall, where they dropped him off, thinking he would stay the night.

Not long after, the officers received a call from a local gas station attendant who said he spotted Price visibly intoxicated. When officers arrived at the station, Price was already gone.

In the Causeway incident, several officers eventually left the force after giving Price preferential treatment after he was stopped for smashing through a tollgate and driving without headlights, apparently intoxicated.

The officers did not issue a field sobriety test and allowed Price to return home after a family member picked him up.

After the Mandeville incident was reported, Price admitted to drinking that night and, as a result, relinquished his city vehicle and enrolled in a 12-week counseling program.

That spurred the scrutiny of the council.

The council hired the law firm in May to use with cases concerning administrative issues instead of using City Attorney David Cressy, which would pose a conflict of interest when investigating issues within the city.
