Daniel Edwards should resign regardless of whether or not he is ever arrested. There is no question his department is out of control and he is an inept manager. He may very well be a criminal himself.

FBI probing death of northshore businessman following stint at Tangipahoa Jail

quote:

The inquiry is the latest in a string of federal investigations into the Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff's Office following the FBI's high-profile raid of the office in late 2016. The Advocate reported last year that the bureau also is investigating a bail-bond scheme in which several inmates were allegedly allowed to go free without posting their court-ordered bonds.

The Tangipahoa Parish Jail also has generated mounting scrutiny in recent months following the suicide of one inmate and the grisly beating death of another. The latter case was described by one witness as a "shark feeding frenzy" and resulted in 12 inmates being charged with manslaughter.

It's not clear what, exactly, prompted the federal interest in Berwick's death. Edwards, the sheriff, confirmed the FBI served a subpoena at the jail last week for records related to Berwick.

Did Tariffs/Film Tax Credits/Catholics cause this?

JBE will get him to do that if it gets too close to his own reelection efforts next year.

He might even do it soon anyway to put this story to bed.

Turned over a new leaf? Is two in a row too much to hope for?

It will be very interesting to see what comes out as Edwards friend and former deputy, former DEA agent Chad Scott heads to trial on federal charges.

Will Scott cut a deal as the trial nears? What will he reveal about the sheriff if he does?

nothing but Trump did meet with JBE this week about prison reform. I wonder if he wants to let out a bunch of prisoners from federal prisons like JBE did from state prisons??

quote:

Just before Edwards' meeting with Trump, Kennedy sent a letter to the White House describing Louisiana's efforts as "failed" because of re-arrests of some inmates who were released early.

"As you prepare to hold meetings on prison and sentencing reform, I wanted to share a cautionary tale from my home state of Louisiana," Kennedy wrote in a letter addressed to the president. "People are being killed because of the so-called criminal justice reforms that were put in place."

At least two of the people who were released from prison early under Louisiana's criminal justice overhaul have been re-arrested and accused of murder, officials acknowledged last week. District attorneys estimate that hundreds more have been re-arrested since their release.

Trump did not mention Kennedy's letter during the rhapsodic public portion of the meeting. There were no questions taken from the media.

Don't worry about me.

I will give up on talking tariffs here because this crowd is just blind to and ignorant of the dangers of tariffs.

It doesn't matter---if all the proposed tariffs are imposed---only a small fraction of the proposed tariffs have been implemented---you will all see it by the end of the year and hopefully will be smart enough to recognize it. The retaliatory tariffs and the US tariffs will put hundreds of US businesses out of business. The only people that will still like them will be the very few domestic steel manufacturers. They have already gone up on their US customers and will mint money so long as the steel tariffs remain.

I predict they will disappear quietly after the mid-terms---perhaps before if enough businesses complain. oh BTW just for a final word---Ross is corrupt.

Remember too the voting buying investigation of Louis Ruffino continues and the Governor himself paid him $8500 for "putting up signs".

FBI is a bigger and more dangerous criminal enterprise than this sheriff.

Agreed.

I’d be willing to bet not one person saying Edwards is a crooked sherrif has any idea of what they’re talking about. He’s a good guy.

no, this board has listened to every single freaking point you've made and you've convinced no one. you've become one of the all time worst posters because you can't acknowledge that many people have proven you wrong time and time again.

congrats.
