The same officer, John Shamblas, worked for 11 different departments in recent years, some of them more than twice. And the New Roads Police Department got even more bad news this week. One of their officers, Quincy Lathers, was arrested on felony drug charges. People keep calling this an isolated mistake. It's not. The officer involved worked for 11 different departments in just a few years. That's not experience. That's wandering. In this same department, another officer was arrested on felony drug charges and a different officer shot a man during a mental health crisis. A grand jury said no crime was committed and the officer resigned by text. Now add this case. Wrong number, no verification, 20 hours in jail, charges refused. Different incidents, same department, same outcome. At some point, it's not a coincidence. It's a pattern. Thin blue lies, baby.
