“The Office of Alcohol and Tobacco Control shall require a background investigation by means of fingerprint checks by the Office of State Police and the FBI of each applicant…

“…The submittal of fingerprints shall be a prerequisite to the issuance of a permanent alcoholic beverage permit by means of fingerprint checks by the Office of State Police and the FBI.”

“Such fingerprints shall be available for use by the Office of State Police and for transmittal to the FBI for a national criminal history record check.”

—Excerpts from Title 26:80 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes.

So it is the State Police’s job to do the background checks?

And ATC cannot issue a “permanent” permit until that background check is completed?

Still doesn’t give Hebert the green light to permit convicted felons.

Why not just turn the entire job over to LSP and get rid of Hebert in the process.

Sounds like a win-win situation.

Except the last time they tried to move ATC under LSP during the “streamlining” process it was the big money industry types that fought against it.

Nor does this explain the huge reduction in the number of tickets issued during Mardi Gras.

The huge reduction in the number of tickets issued during Mardi Gras is due to the lack of enforcement agents and due to the money going to the ATC for Hebert to abuse (rims for his vehicle, etc.). Why feed the monster when the monster feeds off of his subordinates?

  Sounds like the Feds need to come in and audit ATC for misuse of grant money!

Lil troy does not believe in enforcing any laws that don’t give him a return on his money. When he saw that it’s the DA’s that get the money for criminal citations, he put a stop to writing them for the most part. He can’t have that since we know how he despises the DA’s in this state!

At last thought, in State Law “shall” is not a suggestion…

.”overpaid executives who share one thing in common: an over-inflated sense of their own importance by virtue of their being appointed to jobs for which they possess few, if any qualifications.”

I’ve been doing my own digging and have been given some really scary and funny info about the goings on at ATC.

And since Mr. Hebert checks this blog often I thought he should see a true definition of himself.
