We discovered that a convicted sex offender named David Dwayne Williams, that uses the alias Rakim Farrakhan, had bragged about beating a LRPF cop's ass and taking his badge (#1275) back in March of 2024.
In 2019, we had great difficutly in obtaining records from LRPD regarding badge numbers.
After many excuses - LRPD claimed the computer that had the record of badges assigned to LRPD cops had crashed and existing records were not complete - LRPD provided us with some badges numbers and in those records it shows that badge number 1275 was assigned to Jordan Allen. Allen was assigned to SW Patrol.
Based on available records, Allen appears to have ended his employment with LRPD in 2023.
Allen would have turned in all his LRPD issued equipment upon his resignation.
We sent a FOI request to LRPD about badge #1275 and LRPD has no record about it being lost, missing or stolen.
They also did not provide any records about it being reissued to another LRPD cop.
Sources told us that LRPD quit using the term PATROLMAN on badges in around 2018 and started using POLICE OFFICER.
It is deeply troubling that William/Farrakhan has possession of that LRPD badge as he could use that to manipulate children for another sex crime.

***UPDATE - 01/21/25***
We followed up our initial FOI request to LRPD and called them out for their lack of transparency.
They did a little more digging and found this:
No matter how the cop lost possession of the badge, it's possession by the felon sex offender is troublesome for LRPD and the Scott Administration.
