Darlene Jacobs-Levy, plaintiff attorney in LSP “wrongful death” suit and member of Gov. John Bel Edwards’ Louisiana Auctioneer Licensing Board

In the most recent Sound Off Louisiana post, founder Robert Burns discusses an unfortunate incident wherein a former Louisiana State Police (LSP) Trooper, Philip Tagliarino, had to take the life of Andrew Arway after Tagliarino feared that his own life may end from the stop.  Burns assesses the performance of the lead plaintiff attorney in the wrongful death suit of Arway’s widow, Darlene Jabobs-Levy, who is also an appointee of Gov. John Bel Edwards to the Auctioneer’s Licensing Board (Warning:  the opening segment of the video below contains the actual traffic stop and subsequent firing of his weapon by Trooper Tagliarino):

PSC Candidate Lenar Whitney, R-Houma

At the meeting of the Baton Rouge Press Club of Monday, October 2, 2017, Republican candidate for Public Service District Two, Lenar Whitney, made a concerted effort to, during a 10-second sound bite, distinguish herself from her two competitors, (Damon Baldone, R-Houma and Craig Greene, R-Baton Rouge), by stating she is the only candidate who “did not vote for, support, or endorse Gov. John Bel Edwards”:

Whitney makes 10-second sound bite to make it clear she is the only candidate not voting for, supporting, or endorsing Louisiana Democratic Governor John Bel Edwards.  Neither of her two competitors, Damon Baldone nor Craig Greene, uttered a single word to challenge Whitney’s assertion.
