Billy Broussard lays blame for his $1 million + loss squarely at the feet of former “Mafia Boss,” (the late Calcasieu Parish DA John DeRosier); says President Trump, VP Vance should acknowledge DAs roles in aiding such fraud and that Gov. Landry must join the Trump/Vance efforts.

Former Calcasieu Parish District Attorney, the late John DeRosier.

In today’s Sound Off Louisiana feature, Billy Brossard lays the blame for his $1 million plus loss in the aftermath of Hurricane Rita squarely at the feet of “Mafia Boss,” the late Calcasieu Parish District Attorney John DeRosier.  He further acknowledges President Trump’s “top down” approach to root out fraud, and he states emphatically that Gov. Landry will have little choice but to join in the Trump/Vance efforts and “top down” approach:

Billy Broussard on President Trump and Vice President J. D. Vance’s revamped efforts to root out fraud and his statements that Gov. Landry will need to join in their efforts.

Here are links to features Broussard wanted to accompany this feature:

1. Water, water everywhere article entailing flooding everywhere along the Louisiana and Texas borders in October of 2006.  Broussard attributes this flooding to “neglect” and asserts local drainage officials cured some of their “neglect” by simply having him clean out a ton of debris which had been in Indian Bayou for decades only to then report different GPS work sites to FEMA (which Broussard steadfastly maintains were not even on the Army Corps’ map for the Indian Bayou project) and stiff him for over $1 million in the process.
2. October 2, 2025 American Press article on the passing of former Calcasieu Parish DA John DeRosier.
3. Fox News interview with Vice President J. D. Vance on fraud clampdowns wherein Vance is quoted as stating, “We’ve looked where nobody else looked.”

Happy Juneteenth to everyone.
