District Attorney Charles Ballay presented LA Wildlife & Fisheries agents at the new District Attorney’s office with a program to allow them to obtain search warrants from judges remotely via Cloud Gavel that will authorize them to collect evidence when out investigating criminal violations on our waterways and remote locations. Assistant District Attorney Jerry Lobrano talked with the agents on how the program will allow them to make cases better for prosecution work and how it is a necessary tool in the enforcement of wildlife and fisheries laws and boating safety. This program will help keep the public safe with the increasing trend of boating and fishing in Plaquemines Parish.
