State Senator Seabaugh Challenges DA Stewart Over Case Backlog Delays

The race for District Attorney in Caddo Parish has drawn several candidates who think there needs to be a change. Republican Alan Seabaugh says we must do better to prosecute criminals.

Seabaugh currently serves in the State Senate, but he wants to be elected to serve as DA because he thinks he can do a better job than the current DA James Stewart.

Seabaugh tells KEEL News the current DA is dragging his feet on too many cases and says accused criminals are waiting for 4 and 5 years in jail before their cases ever go to tril.

Seabaugh says he will aggressively prosecute criminals and put victims first.

He also says he will take domestic violence calls seriously and do everything possible to protect our children.

Early voting runs through October 27th. Election Day is November 3rd.
