Sheriff Louis Ackal faced multiple allegations of fostering a culture of abuse within the Iberia Parish Sheriff’s Office. In 2016, he was acquitted of federal civil rights charges related to ordering beatings of inmates and orchestrating cover-ups. However, under his leadership, the department faced numerous lawsuits resulting in settlements totaling nearly $6 million by 2019.
