Confederacy of Dunces: Landrieu edition

Staring Cousin Ken and Phyllis as Ignatius and Irene.

A state judge sentenced the cousin of Mayor Mitch Landrieu and son of former Orleans Parish School Board member Phyllis Landrieu to one year of home arrest and two years of probation on Friday for pulling a gun on another driver in the Lower Garden District in 2015.

The beefy businessman will be allowed to leave the home he shares with his mother to run her errands and take her to doctor's appointments between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m., but he will be forced to wear an electronic monitoring bracelet when he does it.

Also congratulations to Cousin Ken on actually achieving house arrest status. It's something Mitch only came close to getting.
