Drugs, weapons, and various other types of contraband have been uncovered in a multi-agency shakedown effort at the Tangipahoa Parish Jail that is expected to lead to multiple arrests.
On Tuesday (June 24, 2025) morning, more than 100 law enforcement personnel from TPSO, Rayburn Correctional Center and the Livingston Parish Sheriff’s Office conducted a full-scale search of the entire facility. The operation turned up drugs, makeshift weapons and other prohibited items like cellphones.
The jail sweep had been in planning for several weeks as it is part of TPSO’s new operational standards for the jail under Sheriff Gerald Sticker.
Investigations into the introduction of the contraband located in this effort are underway and are expected to result in additional charges for involved inmates as well any non-inmates identified as having played a part in the facilitation or distribution of the contraband.
The TPSO would like to express our sincere gratitude to the law enforcement partners who assisted with this effort for their dedication and diligence through the operation.
