District Attorney Bertrand DeBlanc announces the appointment of Earl Picard as Coordinator-Investigator in his office in Lafayette Parish. DeBlanc states that Picard's main job will be coordinating evidence and talking to law enforcement agencies to determine sufficiency of evidence. DeBlanc states that with a soaring crime rate he's fortunate that Picard left a job at a large company as Safety Director to work for his office and that his parish has a forward-looking police jury.
