Bogalusa Man Indicted in Death of Teen from Synthetic Marijuana

A St. Tammany Parish grand jury indicted Jami D. Cooper (33) of Bogalusa (shown below left) with second degree murder Tuesday (May 2, 2017) in the death of a 17 year old teenager found  unresponsive in a Covington ditch after smoking synthetic marijuana on March 13, 2016.
Cooper is accused of distributing the drug through a middle man, Jarbari Pea (23) of Covington, who was indicted last year on a second degree murder charge in the same case and who pleaded guilty to Negligent Homicide and Distribution of Synthetic Cannabinoids (Schedule 1). District Judge Scott Gardner sentenced Pea to five years in prison on the negligent homicide charge and 10 years with five of them suspended on the distribution charge. The sentences are to be served concurrently.
The grand jury also returned the following indictments:

  • Victor Galan (shown below center), 37, of Folsom, with the aggravated rape of a 10-year-old girl, who had been left in his care; and
  • Shane Christian Pagano (shown below right), 41, of Slidell, with the aggravated/first degree rape of a 13-year-old girl, beginning when she was three to five years old and lasting for several years.
