The charges stem from an incident that occurred on December 29, 2025. According to investigators with the Washington Parish Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded to a shooting in Bogalusa, where they discovered the victim, Reno Miley, deceased at the scene from multiple gunshot wounds.
Assistant District Attorney Jay Adair is the lead prosecutor on this case, and Washington Parish Sheriff’s Office Captain Corbet Hunt is the lead investigator.
Following this indictment, Provost will be scheduled for a formal arraignment in the 22nd Judicial District Court, where he will enter a plea.
As this is a pending and ongoing criminal matter, the Office of the District Attorney for the 22nd Judicial District will have no further comment at this time.
An indictment is an accusation. All defendants are presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
