Vivian Police officer Billy Washington, 46 was arrested by Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Deputies on a burglary charge, after he took furniture from a mobile home in a park he managed.
The woman who lived in the mobile home told sheriff's investigators she had to temporarily move out of her mobile home in Vivian because of a utility problem. When she checked on her property several months later, she found a freezer, two chests, a bed frame, end table and a mirror gone, deputies said.
Deputies said most of the property was taken to a mobile home where Washington lived. When detectives began investigating, it was moved to another residence in Vivian, deputies said.
Along with Washington, 34-year old Carylyn Washington and 41-year old Charles Watson are also charged in connection with the stolen items and booked on simple burglary charges.
Washington moved the furniture to a residence in Vivian after the sheriff's office started investigating, according to Cindy Chadwick, Sheriff's Office spokeswoman.
The sheriff's office recovered the property.
Washington at first denied taking the furniture but later admitted his involvement, according to Chadwick.
