In conversation after conversation, I heard the same message. We can do better, and our City Court and parish have a role to play. I loved being out there with you, and I would gladly do it all over again wherever I can be of service.You called for local partners to work together on expungement clinics so people with eligible records have a fairer shot at a good job. You called for bringing back Teen Court to hold young people accountable for minor offenses while helping them get back on track. And you called for gun buyback programs as one way to get guns off the streets and improve public safety.We fell 234 votes short. I congratulate Judge Robert Owsley on his victory. I also urge everyone who serves in Natchitoches’ justice system to listen to the nearly half of Ward 1 voters who backed this vision. They asked us to move beyond business as usual and make the justice system more responsive and inclusive.In my next chapter, I’ll use my knowledge and experience to keep working toward the changes you asked for. Thank you for opening your doors, sharing your concerns, and trusting me with your vote. I’ll carry what you shared with me into the work ahead.Sincerely,Cloyd Benjamin, Jr.Retired First Assistant District Attorney</div></body>
