Earlier this week, Joey Istre was held accountable by a jury of his peers in St. Bernard. I pray this conviction provides some healing to his victims, four of whom showed incredible bravery and courage in testifying against him.

The jury’s verdict is the culmination of a great prosecution by my Assistant Attorneys General Brooke Harris and Marko Marjanovic. I thank Brooke, Marko, and my Special Agents Marc Amos, Paul Bourque, and Kelly Leon for their efforts to get justice.

Our work is not complete; we look forward to prosecuting Mr. Istre in Bossier Parish. And my office will continue to support crime victims and bring offenders to justice.
