Anyone know why the Baton Rouge Advocate has such a hard on for this guy?

I've been out of Baton Rouge for 10+ years, but still read the paper regularly. I've never seen them go after someone so persistently. Do they just think they have found their Pulitzer or is there something more behind it?

Cain has always believed in old school justice within the prison. The liberal media has always had a problem with that.

I don't know shite about him except he looks like a character Phillip Seymour Hoffman would have played in an Oscar nominated prison movie

He's shady AF and they know there is a story there.

More people than just the Advocate are looking into Cain.

He runs a prison. He may as well be a republican as far as the Advocate is concerned. All of his unethical conduct and even much of his good behavior will be criticized.

I've seen Cain work a room a few times when I worked at the Legislature. He always seemed like the shady, good ole boy Louisiana politician from back in the days of Edwin Edwards. Had his little fiefdom and used it to wheel and deal for favors.

Which is exactly what the Advocate is uncovering is true. Sounds his son was cut from the same cloth.
