Louisiana: St. Tammany Parish Coroner-elect facing recall effort

St. Tammany Parish Coroner-elect Christopher Tape is facing recall threats over sex abuse allegations that were dismissed in 2003 over a claim of a violation of a right to a speedy trial. Tape was fired by the previous coroner over claims of violating the confidentiality policy.

10 years ago, St. Tammany Parish Coroner Peter Galvan resigned during recall efforts over theft.
