Because he's fat and has a southern drawl let's fire him.

No let's fire him because he's corrupt and because he's been running the prison like a revival meeting for twenty years.

And that's not important? Do any of you know what the prison was like before him?


John Whitley the warden before Cain was the person actually responsible for getting Angola under control. Cain had 4 death row members escape on his watch and a Captain killed during the December uprising years ago. Let's not act like it's been all cotton candy, unicorns and rainbows with him at the helm.

The real estate deals are child's play when compared to the "inmate account." That's where the rodeo money goes. It has a hole in it.

Cain is a multi millionaire because of being warden. He has controls on everything from Prison Enterprises, the DOC CU, the rodeo money and the Theological Seminary at Angola. Guy makes Edwin Edwards look like an amateur. He is the king of shake downs.

Don't forget the Louisiana Workforce prisons, and the work release program.

Sorry to bump but here is interview with him for those that haven't watched. Well, parts of interview. Most people in his spot seem to stay away from speaking to public while under scrutiny, kinda surprised he did it.

Eta: Well damn, maybe my link is wrong

Witch hunters are everywhere.


Just like many pos posters on this site, any chance thy get to destroy someone personally (warrented or not) they go all out.


What's some people's hard on in doing this to others?
Miserable existence IMO.

Don't want to get into the details, but he screwed over a close family member. So screw him.

I have no idea what he did.

I was speaking in general terms of pos people that live to see others tore down.

This board and world is full of them.

Vannoy is a good man. Don't expect any Burlesque (pun intended) antics from him. LeBlanc should go down with Cain in time.

He replaced Burl Cain at DCI when Burl moved to Angola. Cain lived in the DCI warden's house for a decade after that while the state payed rent on a home in Zachary for LeBlanc.

Burl didn't like living behind a gate (Angola) at the time because he had several romantic interests. He didn't want the gate guards getting nosey.

He moved to Angola 6-8 years ago. LeBlanc moved to the Head of Department of Corrections with Cain's blessing. He became Cain's "boss" which in Leblanc's case translates to bitch for the past almost 2 decades.

He is Cain's protege'.
