LSA Deputy of the Year awarded to Caddo Parish Sheriff's deputy
CADDO PARISH, La. (KTAL/KMSS) — The Louisiana Sheriffs' Association (LSA) has named a Caddo Parish Sheriff's Deputy as their Deputy of the Year. Resolutions in both the Louisiana Senate and House authored by State Senator Sam Jenkins and State Representative Steven Jackson recently recognized Corporal Rickey Anderson for being chosen as the LSA's Deputy of the Year. Shreveport firefighters save man from Stoner Ave blaze According to the LSA, the award recognizes a deputy sheriff who has shown unusual initiative and imagination in the performance of duty and has worked to improve the quality of life in their community through selfless and impactful service. As a DEA Task Force Officer, Corporal Anderson began an in-depth investigation following a traffic stop in Shreveport back in 2021, which led to the arrest of two individuals and the seizure of large quantities of methamphetamine, fentanyl, and counterfeit opioid pills. Anderson's efforts in the ensuing investigation helped uncover a fentanyl trafficking ring that was tied to the death of Jason Grubb, who overdosed on fentanyl pills in 2021. Salute the Badge: A candid conversation with SPD Chief Wayne Smith Two ensuing arrests connected to Grubb's death resulted in the first-ever federal convictions in the Western District of Louisiana and the United States for the distribution of fentanyl resulting in death. Anderson has served with the Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office since 1993. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
