You can't make this stuff up.
You think Bossier Parish politics are interesting? Look at Rapides Parish, where a former sheriff’s detective has accused the current sheriff of covering up the killing of a dog by a friend.
He sent a tape of the incident to PETA, which of course asked for an investigation.
The plot thickens. The deputy’s wife, who works for the Rapides Clerk of Court, was accused of stealing a dog from the sheriff’s house and a pot bellied pig from one of the sheriff’s neighbors. The deputy husband was fired for sending a copy of the investigation to a lawyer.
A spokesman for the sheriff says that when investigators were checking the deputy’s work computer for information about sending the copy to the lawyer, they found animal porn and hard core people porn that had been downloaded.
And yes, they are involved in an election.
And yes, the former deputy is supporting the sheriff’s opponent.

Jim, I was reading the Town Talk article to The Mrs. when a discussion ensued. I can NOT tell you how it went, but suffice it to say that we both needed a laugh, and we got a belly full.
ReplyDeleteIt pretty well ended with her saying (as you did), "You can not make this stuff up."
This is probably the bestest post with linkage in the history of MyBossier. Good work. I was so captivated that I almost clicked on the link at the TT's site to view the video. But, I just wasn't sure I could remain sane iffen I did.
Pot-bellied pig theft...dog murder...bestiality...has all the makings of a 20/20 in depth report, if you axe me.
Since animal porn is involved, is it OK to say, "Holy Cow!"
ReplyDeletePork barrel politics?

ReplyDeletePuts a whole new meaning to "Wee Doggie!"
ReplyDeleteJust because it hasn't been reported in BP doesn't mean it doesn't happen. It just means either nobody knows, or a few people know and don't mind.
ReplyDeleteSome how stories like this don't surprise me anymore. What was one a few weeks ago? Man reports theft of marijuana and is arrested because of what he still had?
