While the U. S. Attorney for the Western District of Louisiana continues to do yeoman’s work on the Royce Toney one-man Ouachita parish crime wave, it appears that the Fourth Judicial (Morehouse, Ouachita parishes) District Attorney Jerry Jones and Louisiana Attorney General James “Buddy” Caldwell are nowhere to be found. This, despite serious allegations of violations of state law in the case, and a guilty plea by Toney late today.
Last week, the feds filed a “superceding indictment” against Toney alleging mail fraud, in addition to earlier charges to which Toney plead guilty. See here the document:
The underlying alleged crimes to the mail fraud charges involve Louisiana state laws, specifically:
Campaign Finance Disclosure Act – LA RS 18:1841
Personal Financial Disclosure Act – LA RS 42:1124.2
It is long past time that Louisiana citizens have to depend upon the feds to clean up the political corruption that should be prosecuted by local and state law enforcement.
