NEW ORLEANS - City Council President Helena Moreno has released the following statement in response to the passing of NOPD officer Donovan Livaccari:

“We mourn the passing of veteran NOPD officer and longtime Fraternal Order of Police Attorney Donovan Livaccari. He dedicated his life to law enforcement and to our community, first earning the rank of Sergeant in the NOPD and later representing officers in both legal and public policy arenas. Donovan’s dedication to improving the work lives of law enforcement officers, advancing common-sense policy to promote public safety, and commitment to collaboration with elected officials and communities across the city will be sorely missed. Our deepest sympathies to his family and friends at this difficult time.”
