Officer denied food in St.francisville

I'm not sure if the owner was just trying to save face but the article implies the deputies weren't the only ones who were the victims of the shenanigans. The owner said the employees were messing with random people going through to drive thru. In other words, it may not have been an anti-cop thing. It may have been an immaturity thing.

I think it was actually at the Scottlandville location which makes more sense anyway .

Regardless of whether the officers were targeted because of their profession or just because they happened to be the next in line for these immature food service workers to harass, it seems to me that the owner of the franchise is now forced to clean up his act or risk losing his franchise. Instead of demanding an apology from the police, he should be the one apologizing and sending out some pink slips starting with the manager on duty when that happened. Crap like this is the reason I rarely eat at fast food establishments anymore unless they are a Cane’s or Chik-Fil-A.

The owner of the St. Francisville Burger King, Joe Clements of Crown Restaurants, LLC., issued a statement on Friday as well, to WBRZ:
*I am aware of the incident at the Burger King in St. Francisville involving two Assumption Parish Sheriff’s Deputies not being served. Unfortunately, it also involved other Guests not being served. The actions of these team members do not reflect the values and beliefs of our organization, nor do they reflect the values and beliefs of the Burger King Brand. I have investigated the incident and have determined that certain team members refused service to multiple Guests in our drive thru, including the two Deputies, on that day. As a result, these individuals no longer works for our organization. I have met with Sheriff Falcon of Assumption Parish and expressed my sincere apology for the incident, and I have asked that he extend my apology to the two Deputies. We also extend our apology to any Guests that were inconvenienced as a result of the performance of these employees. Our goal is to provide friendly customer service to all of our customers.*

Sorry, I misread the article. It says he *demanded a retraction.* I don’t think he was in any position to demand a retraction when he should have simply apologized. Demanding the story be retracted is as good as saying that it didn’t happen to the officers, at least in my book. Apologizing with a ‘but’ is no apology at all.

I have something to add to this. There's a reason why cops down south are hated and i experienced it first hand.
Last year a female friend stole my car. I put a warrant out for her, found the car got it back, went to the 6th district station to see about removing that warrant (stupid of me to think it was that easy) and they arrested me on the spot. Apparently this pretty girl had convinced a cop that she had paid me for the car. Eventually all charges were dropped, but how I was treated!! I went to the police station with my mother the day before Christmas. They wouldn't even let me say bye to her as they took me away. They were rude and just rough with me as if i was some kind of criminal. Im the easiest going happy-go-lucky law abiding citizen that contributes greatly to our society as a business owner and philanthropist and was treated like pure garbage. I lost tons of respect for where my hard earned tax dollars are going.

It's highly unlikely she could simply convince the police without offering any documentation to back up her claim. If you reported the car stolen under false pretenses, you violated Louisiana Revised Statute 14:133, Filing False Police Records. If you named a specific person and especially if they were arrested based on those false pretenses, you provided false statements concerning denial of her constitutional rights. And with a Stay Away order issued, it would appear there are details to the story that were not mentioned that may be relevant.

And it was a week before Christmas (12/18/2017), not the day before. And you appeared in front of Judge Buras on 12/19/2017 and he issued an ROR. And it looks like the issue had been going on for a while. It appears the $2000 bond was set on 11/18/2017. I'd guess a bond was set when a warrant was obtained.

BTW, Orleans Parish Criminal District Court records are public information. You can go to opcso.org and click on Docket Master.

Damn, it’s like I’m psychic. Thanks for clearing it up. I see that the post he made was one of his first few, I bet he’s going to be a joy around here in the future.

At least this story didn't start off with "what had happened was..."
