Federal authorities announced Thursday that Jack Strain, once a looming political figure in St. Tammany Parish politics whose legacy is now tainted by political scandal and accusations of sex crimes, has been charged in a corruption case stemming from his tenure as St. Tammany sheriff.

The federal indictment, which runs 25 pages, accuses Strain of 16 counts ranging from bribery to wire fraud.

He can't avoid it because his last name isn't "Clinton."

The thing about this case was that he was so blatant about it they couldn’t not indict him. It was like he was trying to outdo every other corrupt official.

Doesn’t sound like he was even making all that much money in the kickback scheme.

Does the money even matter if you can hold all the power.

Well there’s risk of getting caught which has to he worth something.

I guess he figured that he had everyone under his thumb and the whole system was corrupt so who’d know?

Just wonder who of the current elected officials are complicit?

St. Slammany. Seems to me the average St, Tammanard facing the same charges would have a $2 trillion dollar bail but this fricktard is walking free. St. Tammany has an inordinate amount of corrupt officials for such a law and order Parish. Morans.

Naw, he's right.

High crime, corrupt officials, terrible traffic; best to stay away.
