BATON ROUGE - A plot to catch Baton Rouge Police Chief Murphy Paul breaking the rules backfired on an officer after his boss got wind of the scheme.

During a news conference where BRPD addressed multiple investigations into wrongdoing by its own officers, the department revealed that an officer came up with a setup to try to catch the chief committing a crime. Leaders at BRPD heard about the plan after the officer told his coworkers about it.

"... Comments were made that, if they were to see the chief visiting a certain social establishment, to call and notify him so an arrest or traffic stop could be made on the chief," Deputy Chief Myron Daniels said.

Daniels said the incident did not rise to the level of criminal charges, and it was handled internally.

"The saving grace for that person who attempted to commit that very unethical practice was the officers who did not adhere to the request," said Daniels, explaining why the officer wasn't arrested.

BRPD shared no other details related to any possible discipline for the officer.

BRPD may not survive the month. That department is spiraling so fast. I’ve heard of a mass exodus happening soon, but I’ll believe it when I see it.

Does this mean that Chief Chaos is out there drinking and driving? Apparently, it is common knowledge to the rank and file.

Imagine thinking releasing this to the public is some sort of gotcha

Like it proves everyone is out to get MP or something

Preach. And it exposes that the chief drinks and drives regularly—just what this town needs

If the guy is regularly drinking and driving is it really a "set-up" - seems like he's setting himself up and has just been getting away with breaking the law.

BR is absolutely lawless if you are a democrat especially one in power of some sort.

Sadly BR is just as lost as Nola. SWB just hasn’t figured out the sister city game to up her travel.

Not even a little? Maybe replace his bosses name with his ex wife or that of a poster critical of the police and see how it reads. “Call me if you see this person at this business so I can target the individual for personal reasons” doesn’t fly.

That said, the fact that the officers think that he’s presumably going out drinking and then driving is not a good reflection on MP even as the “victim” in this story

very unethical practice


Oh so BRPD setting up shop outside social establishments to target arrests following patronage to those establishments is now unethical?

Noted.

That’s shitty too, but it’s not the same as going to the establishment because you got word a particular individual was inside.

Do police not target individuals if they get a tip?
