So I get that....if you want to claim the trip was frivolous and should never have been taken by anyone except for Edmundson and maybe his family I get that.

Picture this....if your boss comes and tells you hey guy I'm getting an award in Vegas...I want you to come out there to the ceremony to support me. Are you going to say no?

Picture this. I was told by someone at LSP who was in a position to know that someone else was supposed to get that award until Edmonson found out the conference was in San Diego. They then scratched the other guy and substituted Edmonson.

Here is some background on that:

quote:
Sources close to the story have told LouisianaVoice that New Orleans based State Police Maj. Carl Saizan, a 33-year State Police veteran and former Louisiana State Trooper of the Year, was originally nominated for the award but that the nomination had to pass through Edmonson for his stamp of approval. Instead, Saizan’s nomination was mysteriously scratched in favor of….Edmonson. Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) Secretary Dr. Shawn Wilson ultimately signed off on Edmonson’s nomination.
