Author Roy Chauvin's new book "Slave of Conviction, Diary of Corruption" is a collection of true stories exposing corruption in Louisiana politics and law enforcement
Recent release "Slave of Conviction, Diary of Corruption" from Page Publishing author Roy Chauvin, is a revealing compilation documenting commonplace yet troubling interactions with fellow wildlife agents as well as others in law enforcement and political circles who regarded the laws of the state of Louisiana as something to be ignored if doing so would benefit them personally. Chauvin's uncompromising ethics and integrity stand in sharp contrast to the mercenary attitudes of individuals described in his book.
SCHRIEVER, La., Sept. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Roy Chauvin, a retired wildlife agent for the State of Louisiana who resides in the Cajun town of Houma with Sally, his childhood sweetheart and wife of fifty years, with whom he has fostered twenty-five children, adopted five, raised a grandchild abandoned by their adopted daughter, and is still caring for a thirty-six-year-old child on the Autism spectrum, has completed his new book "Slave of Conviction, Diary of Corruption": a selection of contemporaneous journal entries recording his encounters with lawless criminals, politicians, and police officers over more than twenty-five years of service as a Louisiana wildlife agent.
Throughout life, most people struggle with making life's decisions. These decisions not only involve the individual making the decision, but his family and in some cases the public as well. The life of a law enforcement officer involves all three. This burden is often stressful, taxing one's conscience to the breaking point. The individual must rely on his family background and values instilled in him throughout his life. A strong faith and belief that all must be fair and just is viewed as an idealistic approach that everyone strives toward in making decisions. To truly adopt this fairness, honesty, and justice philosophy in life's decisions is extremely difficult in today's world. Many choose to prostitute their convictions for their jobs, money, status, and power, rationalizing their decisions for personal gain, leaving humanity in ashes.
The daily decisions of a law enforcement officer directly affect his fellow man. This burden is self-inflicted by the individual to do the right thing, or to go along with the good-old-boy attitude. The latter accomplishes nothing and is actually looked down upon by the honest public. The public truly wants a leader they can trust to carry out this honesty and justice philosophy; however, the public has no clue to the sacrifices that one must make to achieve these goals. To fulfill the mission for honesty and fairness, the law enforcement officer must become a slave of convictions. Thus, the partial title.
This title must be evaluated by the reader of the book: was the main character, in fact, dedicated to his convictions? The diaries are a compilation of daily entries documenting the author's daily life. The author of this book does not seek the approval of his life's path but rather poses the question:
What would you do if you were in his shoes? Walk the walk and talk the talk, or acquiesce because it is too costly?
Published by Page Publishing, Roy Chauvin's engrossing book is an illuminating work sharing his journal entries documenting the corrupt practices of many of the game wardens, other law enforcement officers, and politicians he encountered during his decades-long career.
Readers who wish to experience this engaging work can purchase "Slave of Conviction, Diary of Corruption" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
