New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell faces two more corruption scandals, this time regarding an unusually close relationship with her bodyguard and huge payouts to her stylist.
Cantrell, 50, was previously embroiled in a scandal involving tens of thousands of dollars worth of excessive first-class flights, which she recently agreed to repay, and accusations that she was using her position to live in a luxury apartment without paying rent, Fox News reported. Now, the New Orleans mayor faces new accusations that she improperly paid her stylist huge sums of money and spent a suspiciously long amount of time with one of her bodyguards.
Her other major scandal involves Tanya Haynes, her"image consultant," whom she has paid approximately $231,000, Nola.com reported. The matter was deemed severe enough for two New Orleans stores to get subpoenaed by a federal grand jury, which is investigating the matter.
