Roberts resigned as DeRidder’s mayor one day after authorities began investigating a complaint that she had raped a minor. Her resignation letter omitted any mention of that investigation.
She later made $75,000 bail to await her trial from out of custody.
Misty Roberts in 2018 made history by becoming the first woman ever elected as mayor of DeRidder. She won a second four-year term in 2022.
and her brother is in jail for 42 years on multiple rape counts.
One was a minor too. As mentioned elsewhere in this post, I have a feeling there was some abuse happening to the two as kids.
