Three Washington Parish Jail inmates were arrested today (October 3, 2022) for physical assault on a fourth jail inmate. Inmate Elisha Brown initiated the assault and was joined by inmates Travon D. Washington and Aaron Little in the unprovoked assault on the inmate victim.

Elisha Brown, age 20, has been in the Washington Parish Jail since August 28, 2021, after having been arrested by Washington Parish Sheriff’s Office detectives. A resident of Wood Scale Road in Hammond, Brown is charged with 2nd degree murder in the death of Xykie Barker.

Travon D. Washington, age 21, also has been in the Washington Parish Jail since August 28, 2021, after having been arrested by the Washington Parish Sheriff’s Office. A resident of Driftwood Street in Amite, Washington is charged in the same murder of Xykie Barker. He also faces charges of aggravated burglary, aggravated assault, two counts of battery and three counts of theft of a firearm. His bond has been set at $560,000.

Aaron Little, Jr., age 18, has been in the Washington Parish Jail since July 1, 2022, after having been arrested by the Bogalusa Police Department. He is charged with 1st degree murder, armed robbery, armed robbery with a firearm, illegal use of a weapon and battery. No bond has been set for Little.

“Being inmates does not prevent additional arrests,” stated Sheriff Randy Seal. “If you do a crime, you will be arrested and prosecuted. These three young men are already facing serious charges and now they are accumulating additional charges. Violent behavior is not tolerated in our community; nor is it tolerated in our jail.”
