§53.4. Order for custody; grounds; teleconference; Lafourche Parish
When a peace officer or other credible person executes a statement made to the best of his knowledge, belief, and personal observations from any law enforcement agency physically located in the city of Thibodaux or the town of Matthews pursuant to R.S. 28:53.2, the statement may be made by video conference between the peace officer or other credible person and the Lafourche Parish coroner's office. If the affiant is credible, qualified staff of the coroner's office shall complete an order for protective custody form based on information obtained in the video interview and immediately fax the form to the appropriate law enforcement agency. If the statement meets with the affiant's approval, the affiant shall sign the statement. The signature of the affiant shall be witnessed on the video and by a peace officer and immediately faxed to the coroner's office for the coroner's signature. Thereafter, the original signed form shall be sent to the Lafourche Parish coroner's office.
