Dee Dee Serpas, Kenner Police Department, Retired
Following in the footsteps of her great-grandfather, Sheriff Paul Berthelot,
Sheriff of St. John the Baptist Parish, and that of her father, who was president of FOP Lodge 2 in the late 1950s, Dee Dee
became a Police Officer. First with the East Jefferson Levee Board Police, she also joined the Kenner Police Department and
was the only female to graduate from the academy that year. Later, she joined the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office
as a street cop. This makes her the only known female in Louisiana to have held three commissions at the age of 21. Her first book, Behind the Badge in the Atchafalya Swap is due out soon.
