In that role, Jonathan leads a team of former police chiefs, internationally-known academics, and other professionals who collectively are responsible for reviewing, assessing, and reporting publicly on the NOPD’s compliance with a far-reaching federal Consent Decree. As a corollary to his work in New Orleans, Jonathan co-founded the Georgetown/Sheppard Mullin Active Bystandership for Law Enforcement (ABLE) Project, for which he serves as the pro bono chairperson of the Project’s Board of Advisors. Jonathan received his BA in1990 from Brandeis University and his JD in 1993 from Duke University School of Law.
