St. Tammany Sheriff Randy Smith to Seek Re-election This Fall

METAIRIE, LA – St. Tammany Sheriff Randy Smith announced today that he will seek re-election to continue to protect and serve Louisiana’s fourth most populous parish.

Said Smith, “I am very proud of our work over the past six and half years to protect our people and property.  Morale is at an all-time high because our deputies are well-equipped, paid fairly, and they have been immensely successful in keeping our community safe.  There’s no doubt that we have raised the standards of professionalism.  But we have done so by supporting the men and women who work tirelessly to ensure the public’s safety and ensuring they have the tools and training they need to fight crime today. I am honored to protect this community and stand strong with this crime-fighting force that has made St. Tammany safe.” 

Last year, the St. Tammany Sheriff’s Office fielded over 8,400 dispatch calls.  The agency achieved impressive results when it came to solving crimes. In 2022, the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office had a 100% clearance rate for the parish’s eight homicides.  The Sheriff’s department scored a 92% solve rate on violent crimes which is more than 100% better than the national average. And, regarding property crimes, the Sheriff’s Office clearance rate in 2022 was over three times the national average.  Said Smith, “Our message to criminals is strong. If you commit a crime here, we will bring you to justice.”

In his last term, Smith continued to bring upgrades to the department including outfitting all deputies with body cameras to ensure transparency and accountability. Under the Sheriff, deputies are trained on how to manage mental health calls, an escalating challenge for all police departments. To ensure retention and to acquire the top recruits, Smith invested in his personnel with improved wages and benefits. The sheriff sent a strong message in his fight against crime when adding a strategically located new police district to improve response time for 100,000 residents. Sheriff Smith relocated the 3rd District Station to Highway 59 near Interstate 12 across from Fontainebleau Junior High and High School to better protect the public, and he brought the large-scale project in under budget.

               The St. Tammany Sheriff’s Office under Smith continues to provide resource officers to 27 public schools to further protect our children and give parents peace of mind. Technology is upgraded regularly to guarantee that officers have the best crime fighting equipment in their fight against crime. And the Sheriff has invested in a new mobile command center and a state-of-the-art drone unit to allow the department’s crimefighters to manage any crisis from the scene.

               Said Smith, “We’ve enjoyed success in protecting our parish, but will never rest on our laurels.  We will continue to stay up to date with the latest and most reliable crime-fighting equipment and training.  I will also work to heighten our presence across this expansive parish.  I plan on building a new Fourth District station in Bush which will remove deputies from the current trailer they operate from within.  I will also seek federal funding to build a state-of-the-art training facility at the Brownswitch location in Slidell.  This alone will help us attract and retain the best of the best in law enforcement.” Sheriff Randy Smith is a 36-year veteran of policing.  He was first elected Sheriff of St. Tammany Parish in 2016 and was re-elected in 2019.  Prior to that, he led the Slidell Police Department as Chief of the Police for six years. Smith is a Republican.

    Here’s the latest
    • Talks to end war: Trump administration officials are working to arrange a meeting in Pakistan this weekend to discuss an off-ramp to the war, two senior administration officials tell CNN. Iran has taunted the White House by suggesting it may be negotiating with itself. It is still unclear whether Tehran has agreed to any of the terms in a 15-point proposal from the US that sources said was shared with Iran via Pakistan.

    • Strikes persist: A residential area in Tehran was hit by an airstrike, according to the Iranian Red Crescent said. Drones struck a fuel tank at Kuwait International Airport, the country’s civil aviation authority said.

    Elusive shipwreck found in Lake Michigan over 100 years after sinking
    [url=https://rutorcoolfldlmrpalkmfklw3nyzad6b6fycdtof3xbnixkerr47udyd.com]rutor24 to[/url]
    A “ghost ship” that sank in Lake Michigan nearly 140 years ago and eluded several search efforts over the past five decades has been found, according to researchers with the Wisconsin Underwater Archeology Association.

    The wooden schooner got caught in a storm in the dead of night and went down in September 1886. In the weeks after, a lighthouse keeper reported the ship’s masts breaking the lake surface, and fishermen caught pieces of the vessel in their nets. Still, wreck hunters were unable to track down the ship’s location — until now.

    Earlier this year, a team of researchers with the Wisconsin Underwater Archeology Association and Wisconsin Historical Society located the shipwreck off the coastal town of Baileys Harbor, Wisconsin, the association announced on Sunday.

    Named the F.J. King, the ship had become a legend within the Wisconsin wreck hunter community for its elusive nature, said maritime historian Brendon Baillod, principal investigator and project lead of the discovery.

    “We really wanted to solve this mystery, and we didn’t expect to,” Baillod told CNN. “(The ship) seemed to have just vanished into thin air. … I actually couldn’t believe we found it.”

    The wreck is just one of many that have been found in the Great Lakes in recent years, and there are still hundreds left to be recovered in Lake Michigan alone, according to Baillod.

    The ‘ghost ship’
    Built in 1867, the F.J. King plied the waters of the Great Lakes for the purpose of trans-lake commerce. The ship transported grains during a time when Wisconsin served as the breadbasket of the United States. The 144-foot-long (44-meter) vessel also carried cargo including iron ore, lumber and more.

    The ship had a lucrative 19-year career until that September night when a gale-force wind caused its seams to break apart, according to the announcement. The captain, William Griffin, ordered the crew to evacuate on the ship’s yawl boat, from where they watched the F.J. King sink, bow first.
