A rogue constable has reportedly issued thousands of illegitimate traffic tickets to drivers in West Baton Rouge Parish, Louisiana, in what appears to be a homegrown attempt to take advantage of a state law allowing stepped-up traffic enforcement in school zones. But rather than installing speed cameras and conducting enforcement as laid out by the law, an enterprising public official in Ward 2 appears to have taken it upon himself to implement a secretive and far more labor-intensive version involving a tripod, hat, safety vest, a hand-held radar gun, and virtually none of the required accountability. Now, a lawmaker who’s backed by the state’s attorney general is telling recipients to tear up their tickets.
