NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — Three Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office administrators are out of a job after Sheriff Susan Hutson says the agency is undergoing organizational changes.
The sheriff says as we approach her one-year tenure of taking office, she is making changes to reform the structure of the OPSO. On Friday four administrators were given the opportunity to either stay with the sheriff’s office for a transitioning period or resign:

Hutson says out of the four staff members, Morales, who resides over the OPSO’s IT, will stay with the sheriff’s office as it undergoes the transitioning stages.
