Ponchy folks know who this is.

Made false reports about an escape at the Tangipahoa Parish Jail.

Fished with his father many years ago when we were in a small bass club together. Scared the crap outta Arden Sr. Crossing the little lake. (It was pretty bad, blew the trolling motor apart and power pack went out on the motor due to 30 mph wind)
He was a nice guy RIP

Is he the one that got disbarred, or was that Senior?

Is that against the law? Half of the nightly news reporters should be in jail.

I passed by his place while this was going on, then saw it posted on facebook. Dude is nuts and has zero filter when it comes to local politics. It has gotten him into trouble numerous times. He has slowed down a good bit since his law license was pulled by the state. It has been disappointing, he is quite entertaining

I have no idea if it was true or not. But I can tell you this, he would publicly air a lot of the dirty laundry of people in Ponchatoula and Tangipahoa Parish. The type of small town stuff that everyone knew but no one talked about. A lot of the stuff was true to a degree, some was bullshite.

Don’t know anything about him. But the ruling on his disbarment paints quite a picture.

His famous line, “I am like bringing a gun to a knife fight”. He had some classic lines.

"In Re"

He actually was a outstanding lawyer but he was borderline crazy and had no filter whatsoever.

I was not an outstanding lawyer and am certified crazy.

In my defense, I only practiced 2-3 years. I'm still a (nonactive) member of the bar.

I think you had some demons to fight that Arden didn't. Arden just has zero filter and will say anything at anytime to his own detriment. I don't think he was literally crazy. I saw him this morning walking his dog in town, so he is out already.
