Clay sounds like quite the fine example of morality and high character principals in public service:

(That Higgins was forced out of a police job for “unnecessary force” and giving false statements during an internal investigation was not, apparently, a deal-breaker for Louisiana voters.)

Higgins also has a history of abusing his power and notoriety as a police officer for his own financial gain.

As a Salon investigation last year showed, Higgins parlayed his position in the St. Landry’s Parish Sheriff’s Office “to sell t-shirts and mugs, negotiate paid talk show appearances, paid speeches, paid advertisements, and even a reality television show.”

Higgins also owed at least $44,000 in back taxes as of last year, and coincidentally requested cash up front for his merchandise and public appearances.
