Deputies with the Bossier Parish Sheriff’s Office first responded to the scene. However, BPSO says Louisiana State Police has taken over the investigation. LSP says the investigation has now been turned over to the FBI.

This church is also listed as the business address for Onward Christian Counseling Services, which is owned by Kelly Johnson. Kelly is the wife of Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, who is from northwest Louisiana.


KSLA

Word is a suspicious package with a powdery white substance was sent to the church, addressed to Kelly Johnson and several people are sick. I imagine a full sweep of the church is underway.

Will update thread as more details come out. Everyone seems to be pretty tight-lipped at the moment. I drove by myself and it was quite a scene.

Somehow this will not be considered a hate crime even though it was sent to a church.

When I read the post title I thought it was a lawfare/gestapo type deal.

I really hope this is just local/internet rumor running wild and there's no truth to this. At the very least the "several people are sick" part.

Gonna see if anyone I'm close with knows anything they can tell me

Be careful what you write about this. The first amendment ain't what it used to be.

If rumors are true I imagine Feds are assuming the church wasn't the only place getting these packages. There's always more than one
