BATON ROUGE, LA – Citing an unexpected surge in documents, emails, meeting notes, contracts, invoices, and other materials associated with the ongoing Baton Rouge corruption investigation, Louisiana Attorney General investigators announced this week that additional storage space was needed to accommodate the growing collection of evidence.
According to sources, investigators initially expected to need only a few filing cabinets and perhaps a storage unit. However, after several weeks of interviews and document requests, officials reportedly determined that the volume of material had exceeded available warehouse capacity.
“We were originally looking at a climate-controlled storage facility,” said one investigator. “Then we filled that. Then we filled another one. At some point someone suggested the Brave Cave and honestly it solved a lot of problems.”
The facility’s existing reputation for housing controversial activities was reportedly viewed as an added convenience.
Investigators say thousands of pages of records have already been transferred to the site, with additional truckloads expected in the coming weeks. Some evidence boxes have allegedly been organized into categories including “Possible Corruption” and “Likely Corruption.”
Sources say Councilman Cleve Dunn offered to store the evidence in one of his office buildings free of charge, but the Attorney General politely declined.
