Autopsy reveals discord over dog’s disposal and sedative concerns
The autopsy record details Wicknair’s addendum on March 8 noting the dog’s body was taken to the Animal Control office due to sodium pen danger. Loyd’s follow up shows Troxclair asked for the body for burial, Vicknair disposed of it in the woods after not returning to Hammond. Troxclair alleges intimidation by Vicknair and Officer Miller, who said the neighbor could shoot the dog.

Wal-Mart distribution center faces resident backlash in Tangipahoa
Tangipahoa Parish officials say TEDF won a change process as Wal-Mart moves to site a 900,000 square foot distribution center on U.S. 190 near Robert. About 250 residents met with Wal-Mart executives at First Baptist Church of Robert to voice concerns over rural disruption, drainage, lighting, and heavy truck traffic amid limited notice. Land largely owned by former Champ Cooper principal Clarence Zahn.
