According to an LSP Troop A news release, 68-year-old Gwendolyn Blank of St. Amant died in the two-vehicle crash along Highway 1032 near Debbie Lane around 3:30 p.m. July 11.
Per the release, the preliminary investigation found that a 2016 Toyota Avalon was traveling south on the highway when, at the same time, a 2023 Dodge Ram was traveling northbound.
For reasons still under investigation, the Toyota crossed the center line in a left-hand curve and collided head-on with the truck, troopers reported in the realease.
Blank, who was the front seat passenger in the car, sustained serious injuries and was transported to a hospital, where she later died, according to LSP.
Troopers reported the driver of the car sustained moderate injuries, and a juvenile rear-seat passenger had minor injuries, while the driver of the truck received minor injuries.
CATAHOULA PARISH, La. (KALB) – Judge John Reeves, who serves the 7th Judicial District Court in Catahoula and Concordia parishes, pleaded guilty in a Judiciary Commission investigation to having engaged in misconduct in his actions at the judge’s bench.
The investigation, in conjunction with admissions of guilt by Reeves, found he:
- issued a legally deficient verbal order of visitation in a child custody case
- issued a legally deficient verbal search warrant in a criminal case
- allowed two members of his court staff to seek appointment as reserve deputies of the Catahoula Parish Sheriff’s Office
- failed to timely recuse himself in a criminal case and gave the appearance of bias
- failed to comply with the Code of Criminal Procedure in reducing, revoking, and subsequently reinstating the defendant’s bond in a criminal case.
The Louisiana Supreme Court issued an opinion on June 25 agreeing with the Commission’s findings.
In acceptance of Reeve’s admissions, his four-month suspension will last from August 31, through the end of his term in office on December 31, 2026.
In addition to the suspension, Reeves must pay $6,148 to the Judiciary Commission of Louisiana.
