Woman resigns as Louisiana town’s mayor, now accused of sexually assaulting juvenile
Misty Roberts, the former mayor of DeRidder, Louisiana, faces a rape charge for allegedly engaging in sexual acts with a juvenile. She is also charged with contributing to the delinquency of juveniles. The investigation began after the Beauregard Parish Sheriff’s Office notified authorities, leading to interviews with two juveniles, one of whom confirmed the allegations. Roberts resigned from her position on July 27 after being informed of the investigation and was released on a $75,000 bond.
