And this is ONLY my opinion..

I knew you were joke by the emojis, I was referring to the officer that kept saying “you asked me to demonstrate”

Remember St.Martinville is a small town everybody knows everybody and I’m sure the detective felt like he coulda resolve this problem by having a sit with both parties. Sometimes that’s all a situation needs but it just didn’t this time.🤷🏽‍♂️

Just to get a lil deeper, Cody called Pat a crackhead, so therefore he should know just as much as I know that NO crackhead has money to waste on putting money up for hit on anybody. A crackhead would take his own action instead of giving money I promise you that. And Cody in my opinion should have that much knowledge on these type of things.

U ask him to demonstrate 😂😂😂😂😂

That’s a good man

Mike need to get a life

I seen that

Doug and officer Broussard knew it was B.S Cody just felt different and took it too far

Any body know this attorney name I have the same issue w the new Iberia department?

Damn they drop the ball

Curious, is Saint Martinville trained to put adverse parties in a small room together? I always thought the appropriate technique was to separate the parties. This seems fishy!!

Small town stupidity cause it’s the Pat I know there was no threat to start with

All the this didn’t matter what was sad on both sides ! It was to protect the police department

True

Woooow

Dwight Bossman Perrodin u all 👀👀

Yes this is like court 😡com on nah

I gotta rewind but I think that’s what he said

Well stated Mayor Willis!

If a judge would ask you to demonstrate would you put you hands on the judge?

Did I hear correctly that both the sheriff and the chief said in that conversation no crime occurred.

They did say that, didn’t the chief insinuate on the news that it was? I’m confused

Is there a motion to discipline the chief that violated the law?

Why would the chief and sheriff say no crime was committed?
