Pierre Part Man Pleads Guilty to Illegal Firearm Possession

          On February 5, 2018, Jarvis Allemond of 127 Verret St. Pierre Part, LA., age 22, pled guilty to the charge of Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon. Allemond was prosecuted by Assistant District Attorney Thomas Daigle, and presiding over this matter was the Honorable Judge Jessie LeBlanc. This guilty plea was the result of a plea agreement with prosecutors following a 2016 narcotics investigation. 

          On October 13, 2016, narcotics agents with the Assumption Parish Sheriff’s Office made contact with Jarvis Allemond at his residence after receiving complaints of possible drug activity in the area. After advising Allemond of the reports, he told deputies that he does not sell drugs but does smoke marijuana. Agents asked Allemond if there were any illegal narcotics inside of his residence. Allemond advised that he did not think there was any narcotics inside. Allemond granted agents consent to search the residence and advised that there was a sawed-off shotgun inside. During a search of Allemond’s residence, agents located the shotgun stuffed inside of a recliner. Allemond, who has a 2013 conviction for Simple Burglary, was arrested and transported to the Assumption Parish Detention Center where he was booked accordingly.  

          Upon entering a plea to the above-mentioned charge, as per the plea agreement with prosecutors, Allemond was sentenced to 10 years with the Louisiana Department of Corrections with credit for time served. The said sentence is to be served without benefit of parole, probation, or suspension of sentence.
