This is the time of year when we need to remain on high alert: the Louisiana Legislature is in session and it has a sudden, unexpected influx of federal money. That’s a certain formula for disaster.
That’s also why it’s more important than ever that you support the efforts of LouisianaVoice.
Our semi-annual fundraiser is underway and will run through the month of April and I am asking for your continued support.
This is our first fundraising effort in a year, having waived the October effort in favor of encouraging you to support your local food bank.
I’m working on several important stories. They involve the baby adopting scam being run in Louisiana and apparently illegal jury selection methods in a north Louisiana judicial district.
And for the past seven and one-half years, I’ve been covering Louisiana State Police, an agency that seems to have no checks and balances and one that is seemingly out of control.
Your financial assistance will help us in pursuing records, paying travel expenses, and fighting legal battles where necessary.
To pay by credit card, please click on the yellow DONATE button to the right of this post or, if you wish to pay by mail, you may send a check to LouisianaVoice, P.O. Box 922, Denham Springs, Louisiana 70727.
Those contributing $100 or more, please including your mailing address so that I may send you a signed copy of my latest book, It’s All TheIRS. It’s a novel about a man who takes on the IRS after being wrongfully assessed a large penalty and literally brings the US government to a grinding halt.
As always, your help, no matter how large or small, is appreciated more than I could ever say.

Mr. Tom,
I didn’t realize how difficult it was for you growing up. Thanks for sharing with all of us.
Honestly, I think because of your struggles, you grew so much stronger and that is why you are such a fighter for justice today. You used it as a reverse effect on your character instead of drowning in your beer. BRAVO!!
When I do my monthly checks for bills, I will send you a check. I will NEVER forget how you exposed the good ole TPSO Sheriff and the rest of the local sheriffs in our area. NO ONE AND I MEAN NO ONE WOULD HAVE EVER DONE THIS AND I HAVE YOUR BOOK TO PROVE IT. I ran into a relative of BOBBY TARDO and I told her about your book. She was amazed of your exposure of details in your book. She was supposed to have ordered a book for her other sister because Bobby was her brother-in-law. Her other sister is married to a very, very, rich powerful business owner in Thibodaux (Ronald Adams) and she wanted her to read the book also.
Bobbys Tardo was married to Rosemary Andras. Rose Mary had two brothers that grew sugarcane for years right on the side of my house. They worked for Ronald Adams because he leased the field, but something happened, and he let them both go with no other income. They were both two really nice gentlemen. Polite, hardworking, decent people. Perhaps they didn’t fit in on the corruption part of the world the rest of that family lived in. Who knows??
Keep up the good work and stay safe. Hope everyone in your house is well and safe. What a trying world we have been living in lately. IT HAS TO END SOMEWHERE AND I HOPE IT IS SOON!!!
ALWAYS GRATEFUL TO YOU FOR WHAT YOU DO BEST, BARB
