Agents with Attorney General Liz Murrill's Louisiana Bureau of Investigation arrested Pollock Police Chief Christopher Paul for Malfeasance in Office and Principal to Filing or Maintaining False Public Records.

LBI (Louisiana Bureau of Investigation) received a request for assistance from the Grant Parish Sheriff’s Office regarding allegations of official misconduct involving the Pollock Police Department. 

During this investigation, LBI agents learned that in the period between January 1, 2022 – September 11, 2025, 55-year-old Pollock Police Chief Christopher Paul, of Hughart Road in Bentley, directed Pollock police officers to patrol, issue citations, and make arrests on and around the grounds of the Federal Correctional Complex – Pollock.

Agents learned that Chief Paul knew the FCC-Pollock complex and the immediate area (roadway) leading to the facility, was not inside the city limits of Pollock. Chief Paul was also aware that he did not have legal authority to conduct routine law enforcement activities outside of his jurisdiction.

As a result, Pollock police officers – at Chief Paul’s direction – made multiple arrests, issued multiple citations, and created investigative reports, which falsely represented that these actions had occurred within the police department’s jurisdiction.   

On Monday, April 13, 2026, LBI agents arrested Paul pursuant to an arrest warrant issued by the 35th Judicial District Court on charges pertaining to:

• 3 counts of LRS 14:133 – Principal to Filing or Maintaining False Public Records
• 3 counts of LRS 14:134 – Malfeasance in Office

“No one is above the law — especially those sworn to uphold it," said Attorney General Liz Murrill.
