New Orleans Parish, LA, sheriff Susan Hutson was sworn into office Monday. Hutson is the first African American female sheriff in the state's history and the first female sheriff of Orleans Parish.
"We are going to talk about history. When you break a glass ceiling you have to celebrate it. I was looking at how long Louisiana has been a state right. 200 plus years. All that time not one African American woman has been able to get to this position. 2022. It is time for all of those barriers to be broken now," Hutson said.
