view that he was talking down
to my officers. They are very
upset."
Today, Layrisson's 20-person
department is worried. "Not
only are they concerned about
violent criminals but a SWAT
team behind their back."
"We welcome any law enforce-
ment agency that wants to help
fight crime in Ponchatoula,"
said the chief in an interview
with The Times Tuesday.
Today, the Louisiana State
Police have the case. "I'm very
confident that they are very
good investigators," he said.
Once the State Police complete
their case, it will be forwarded
to the District Attorney and
Sheriff's Office for review.
###
Steve Reed, a minister and
Ponchatoula business owner,
has good things to say about
Booby Meyn. "I fished with him
beginning 20 years ago and saw
him just a few days ago. He al-
ways knew I was a minister.
He never used bad language in
front of me and he would not al-
low others to do so either."
Reed recalled: "He loved to
fish. He loved his kids. He had
some problems. He was always
respectful of me."
"There's a big issue going on
between the sheriff's office and
the Ponchatoula Police Depart-
ment," Reed said. "I'm hoping
the State Police get to the bot-
tom of it." Reed is an ex-police
officer in Louisiana and Texas.
Reed said he served many years
in law enforcement and is famil-
iar with undercover operations.
"My understanding is they
cleared the whole house except
for one room. They asked Booby
to come out. I understand they
knocked him down. Booby got
up and was shot in the head
and shoulder. Why they did not
try to talk the man out, I don't
know. Nobody knows but the of-
ricer that was there."
The sheriffs office says Meyn
opened fire as they served a
search warrant at his Landers
Drive home.
Overall, "the sherifffs task
force does a fine job," said Reed.
"They do all that they can. I do
feel they could have got him out
of there alive. They could have
talked him out."
Was an undercover officer
inside Meyn's home when the
sheriff's Special Response Team
converged around 6 a.m.?
Chief Layrisson can't say
because it is an open investiga-
tion. His officers had been work-
ing the Meyn case for about a
month before the fatal shooting.
These details may emerge when
the State Police complete their
own investigation.
Reed wondered how a sher-
iffs deputy could see that Booby
Meyn had a .45 automatic that
was cocked. "It's 6 o'clock in the
morning. It's dark. I have been
in that house at noon. It's dark
even then," Reed said.
"There's no way they could see
if the gun was cocked," he said.
"In that split one-hundredth of
a second coming in, you can't
tell if it's cocked."
As for the anonymous critical
comments posted about Meyn on
the newspaper Website 2thead-
vocate.com, Reed said: "People
on the Web have no sensitivity.
"I've never known him to
be violent. I've never seen him
strike anybody, shove anybody,"
said Reed. Others remember
Booby as a grade school bully.
"When I was a kid, I was wait-
ing in line at the Ponchatoula
pool to go swimming. Somebody
came up and hit me in the face
for no reason. It was Booby," re-
called a Springfield man who
asked to remain anonymous.
About the drug charges and
stolen property charges that
Meyn might have faced, Reed

said: "Whatever he was do-
ing, he wasn't right with God.
I'm sick about that. I don't like
to see anybody dead. If you're
wrong, you're wrong. You do the
crime, you do the time."
Reed remembers the gener-
ous side of Booby Meyn, who
was a grade A welder. Meyn of-
fered to help Reed by bringing
in a mechanic friend to fix a til-
ler if Reed would clear some de-
bris around Booby's home.
"I saw him Tuesday before
the shooting. I asked how he
was doing. He said: 'fine.'
"Booby said 'Come in, sit
down and drink some coffee.' He
wanted to talk about his dad.
His dad was a fine man," said
Reed.
Reed, in Ponchatoula 17
years and a business owner, has
a singing ministry. "I sing for
God where He opens doors."
As for Booby Meyn, "a lot of
people did not know his good
qualities."

9/11 Remembrance for 9th
year
Marilyn O'Leary of All Saints
Episcopal Church puts up a
sign to remind all of the oppor-
tunity to remember the tragedy
of 9/11. This is an opportunity
for individuals of all faiths to
take a few minutes out of the
day to think about the loves lost
on that day, and over the many
years since, and to give thanks
for the courage of the many who
have given their best to counter
the senseless actions of a few.
The sanctuary will be open on
Saturday, Sept. 11, between
8:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. Everyone
is welcome.
