You need to educate yourself. Edmonson is a corrupt piece of shite who's milked the position for years.

Well theres a reason Edmondson campaigned so hard for JBE. He thought he had his back

But after Edmondson pulled that retirement perk BS, and then paid his troopers to vacay with him. Landry was all up in his arse. I guess the retirement keeps him out of a trial??

You are doing it wrong.
You are supposed to blame the governor for being a Democrat.

Is the Vegas line set for the ethnicity of Edmonson's replacement?

I know a black man who would be a great replacement.

This has all to do with Zurick's investigative reporting citing him as the signature approving these guys overtime pay. This also gives zurick carte Blanche to investigate anything and everything regarding state police. His life is about to get a lot worse

Probably best for him to move on. More and more issues cropping up at LSP, he's been there for a while, gotten a lot of honors, etc.

Retire, take a very nice retirement package, and go do some consulting/media work.

true (perhaps) but the man was a great warden as far as keeping shite strait with the inmates.

Edmonson may be a scumbag but I thought his handling of the protests and subsequent officer shootings was superb.

For the first time in the history of the La. State Police, its association actively backed a politician for political office, JBE. Without approval of the troopers in the organization, most who knew nothing about it. Edmonson was/is Supt. of the State Police. He kept his job when JBE was elected & decided to keep him on. Connect the dots. And there are 1000's of other dots out there, too. The audit will show just how many trips he took on the State's nickle. Among a lot of other things.

Does FGC somehow think a black guy would be easier on his ilk? That is a far stretch if so. LSP does not frick around when they are involved.

Not even. The state troopers association funneling money to JBE election is more likely his biggest worry as far as investigations.

Two members of the State Police Commission Board (or whatever the frick it's called) have resigned in the past few weeks to distance theirselves from Edmondson. Something more than this Vegas trip (which was fricking retarded) is going on.
