BENTON, Louisiana (KTBS) A Bossier City attorney’s personal insurance company has paid the cash value of a taxpayer-owned vehicle he totaled after crashing it into a bayou last year.
State Farm paid the Bossier Parish District Attorney’s office $17,839 on behalf of its insured, H. Lyn Lawrence. Lawrence was out-of-pocket the $500 deductible required by his insurance policy.
Lawrence pleaded no contest in January in Bossier District Court to failure to report an accident. He was fined $100 plus court costs.
With that plea accepted and the appeal deadline passed, records related to the crash became public record and were obtained by KTBS.

BENTON, La. A Bossier Parish teacher arrested on child-desertion charges involving her 3-year-old daughter should not face criminal charges, the district attorney concluded after reviewing the case, which has played out amid a contentious child-custody dispute.
Danielle Chandler, a teacher at Legacy Elementary, vehemently disputed the charges filed last November, saying her child was never left unsupervised and that she did not have a drinking problem. School system officials who investigated the case and reinstated Chandler days after her arrest called it a âdomestic situationâ involving Chandler and her ex-husband, who went to court seeking custody of the child in the wake of the arrest.
