Sheriff Beckett Breaux spoke about how parents should be careful with who their children get items from. “What they do is get them hooked on the drugs and when they become 18, 17 years old. It becomes their best customer. Talk to your kid, have a conversation with your kids, tell them don’t take anything from strangers, even if it looks like candy don’t take it”.
Beckett Breaux also spoke to drug dealers in the parish. “If you’re an addict and you have a drug problem, we’re about helping you find a solution for your problem, but when you sell these drugs, we will do everything we can to make sure you have the maximum fine and maximum penalties for what you’ve done”.
Federal authorities are investigating these cases and federal charges are possible.
