A known Salopri affiliate was seen at a Port Laveau bar Wednesday night. Three patrons played pool and drank. One woman said her mother had been released from Laveau Prison. The man in the group spoke about his family's money.

Syndicate-aligned observers noted the gathering. Lieutenant Bapteme's work along the bayou continues. Sheriff's Office sources say entertainment venues are being watched for contact between civilians and affiliates.

A department spokesperson said everyone in Port Laveau is seen and remembered. Those who forget that risk waking up somewhere unexpected.
