Just in case anyone out there hasn’t been paying attention and is considering taking Louisiana Rep. Clay Higgins seriously in his latest attempt to stir up FUD among the electorate with the November 3rd election rapidly approaching, here are a few facts everyone should keep in mind when it comes to his history:
Higgins has attempted to create a public image of himself as a devout Christian, manifesting in such media soundbytes as “[h]e carries the King James Version to political events,“ “his departure from the Sheriff's Office provided him 'a prayerful time' as he considered his options,” and “he relied on another source, he insists: 1 Corinthians 2:5, in which Paul advises men to place their faith 'not in the wisdom of of man' but in 'the power of God.’“ However, Higgins is also a three-time divorcee. His current wife Becca, cited by name in the attached tweet as having had a “premonition” about their guns, knives, and other supplies being “seized” by “Federal squads,” is his 4th wife. 
Higgins is a former police officer who has repeatedly parroted Donald Trump’s hardline stance on “law and order.” However, Higgins cast one of only five “NO” votes on HR 1155 - Reaffirming the House of Representatives' commitment to the orderly and peaceful transfer of power called for in the Constitution of the United States, and for other purposes - which calls for a peaceful transition of power should Donald Trump lose the 2020 election. The bill overwhelmingly passed the House 397-5.
In 2007, Higgins was a patrol officer for the Opelousas City Police Department. In a letter to the City Council, Chief Perry Gallow said, "Clay Higgins used unnecessary force on a subject during the execution of a warrant and later gave false statements during an internal investigation.” Gallow also said Higgins “admitted to striking a suspect in handcuffs and later releasing him..." Higgins resigned before disciplinary action could be imposed. In September 2016, during his Congressional campaign, Higgins falsely claimed to have resigned for other reasons.
In October 2014, Higgins was appointed public information officer for the St. Landry Parish Sheriff's Office and promoted to captain. As public information officer, Higgins made videos for the parish Crime Stoppers program appealing to suspects to surrender and sometimes threatening them by name. By 2015, he had earned the moniker "Cajun John Wayne" for his intimidation tactics.
Higgins had gone against department policy by misusing his official position for personal profit and gain by wearing a uniform in an ad for a security firm, and on his personal website to support sales of T-shirts and shot glasses for his own business. He was also cited for using the department's address in registering his LLC with the state. Salon reported Higgins "negotiated paid speaking appearances with other police departments. In one email, Higgins discussed his request for a speaker’s fee that included shopping money for his wife and part of the fuel for his friend’s private plane." Additionally, Salon stated Higgins conducted private business on "his government email account during work hours without the permission or knowledge of his supervisors. Higgins also appears to have attempted to conceal his earnings from the IRS in order to avoid wage garnishment for unpaid taxes.”
Higgins was forced out of the SLPSO by Sheriff Bobby Guidroz in February 2016. Guidroz issued a statement saying that Higgins's comments underlined "a growing undertone of insubordination and lack of discipline on Higgins’ part.”
Despite all of this, Higgins was sworn in as a Reserve Deputy Marshall for the city of Lafayette in March 2016. He retired his commission in 2019, but maintains an active commission as a reserve officer with the Louisiana Attorney General's office.

Reposted from @beardbros_pharms LAFAYETTE, La. — Derek Harris was in his #Louisiana home one night in 2008 when he heard a knock on the door. Harris, of Abbeville, opened the door to find a man seeking #marijuana. The 40-year-old U.S. #Army #veteran of #DesertStorm, who was struggling with substance abuse in the wake of his service, sold the man 0.69 grams of pot for a total of $30. Little did Harris know that the seemingly insignificant drug sale – to an undercover sheriff’s deputy – would end with him serving a life sentence at the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola. - That will soon change. Prosecutors in Vermilion Parish last week agreed to #free Harris, now 52, from #prison following a decision last month by the Louisiana Supreme Court, which granted him a new sentencing hearing in the case. Keith Stutes, district attorney for Louisiana’s 15th Judicial Circuit, agreed with Harris’ appellate attorney that Harris, who was sentenced as a habitual offender, had received ineffective counsel at his sentencing. District Judge Laurie Hulin re-sentenced Harris to nine years in prison, essentially freeing him with #timeserved, NOLA.com reported. - Continued in Comments - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/CD7xxlFBn34/?igshid=rq39kdawhzjz
