Officers, detectives, superiors, judges, DAs are all involved in issuing a warrant. They don't work pro bono, and more importantly, its an opportunity cost because it takes their time away from investigating other more serious crimes.
New Orleans has a ton of crime and an underfunded police force and criminal justice system, yet these officers of the court waste their time on a laughable celebrity case. How would you feel if you got robbed in NO, but they didn't spend any time investigating because their officers and detectives are spread too thin because they have to investigate this crap?
If the cops/security guard wants some money, do it in civil court. The video tape is all you need and you could probably get a stack from ODB to make it go away. Using the criminal justice system is absolutely a waste of police and criminal justice resources.
