    " What the heck is going on in Franklinton? Another Murder? At least the FPD have made an arrest of two people. Now the jury needs to put these two away when the trail comes. Great Job FPD and to all the local Law Enforcement (LE) personnel who try to make Franklinton and Washington Parish a safer place to live. The community will need to assist LE to report crimes and give statements to help get criminals off the streets, if not crime will continue to go up. "
