got pulled over for apparently “not using a turn signal” across all 3 lanes on 190 i had a witness in car who also heard my turn signal going off . as soon as we calmly explained the police officer suddenly smelled weed in my car .flashfoward 7 months later with a turn charge and possession charge out of their own luck for profiling my low income looking car and i can’t get into a career that would improve my quality of life because this dirty cop profiled me .st tammany police is the most corrupted police i have ever seen and they all deserve to be dismissed of duty

Needed info for a property my father is wanting to buy and Clerk Janie was so kind and helpful. She made it a beyond pleasant phone call instead of stressful and answered all of our questions as detailed as possible.

Friendly staff, clean building and beautiful grounds. I was in and out of the land office with what I needed in under 15 minutes. They do take credit cards for a small convenience fee.

I do think they DA System Pressure people into a guilty plead. I were there for a friend on a charge that accidentally happen. I feel the mother was just as fault. I know the truth with her. These stars is for Judge Keller, too me he believes in giving a person a second chance. Remind me of Judge Matthis onTV. I sat there in his court room 3 times and listen to some charges that was bad,but he offer programs in Prison to do , then you can get out early. To me I think he is honest and a great Judge!.
