CLINTON, LA (WAFB) –
An East Feliciana Parish town is in turmoil after two women are arrested and charged with racketeering. It involves non-profit “Friends of Clinton Main Street” organization.
With a population of less than 1,700, Clinton, LA is the type of town where people know what is going on with their neighbors; so when 66-year-old Carol Shirley and 62-year-old Alice Kent were arrested, most people were shocked. Alice Kent is an officer at Landmark Bank and the treasurer of Friends of Main Street program. Carol Shirley is the Executive Director of the Friends of Main Street program.
The Clinton Main Street project is a non-profit organization designed to enhance the town. Now it is the focus of a Federal and State probe.
Legislative auditors say that $65,000 didn’t go to promote the culture, recreation and tourism in Clinton, instead it went to pay for personal things for the two women.
