Lake Charles, LA –
In January 2023, Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office Sex Offender Unit detectives began an investigation concerning convicted sex offender, Albert L. Breaux, 44, Lake Charles, after he failed to comply with his sex offender registration requirements.
In December 2022, Breaux failed to report for his quarterly registration update, making him in violation of his registration requirements. Detectives later learned Breaux had absconded from his registered address in Lake Charles, and failed to notify law enforcement within three days, once again, making him in violation of his registration requirements.
On January 26, 2023, detectives issued a warrant for Breaux, signed by Judge Tony Fazzio. They attempted to locate Breaux, but were unsuccessful. On May 8, detectives learned Breaux was located in St. Martin Parish, at which time he was arrested and extradited back to Calcasieu Parish. He was booked into the Calcasieu Correctional Center and charged with 2 counts of failure to register as a sex offender. His bond is set at $80,000.
Breaux was convicted of forcible rape in 2000 in Orleans Parish.
CPSO Detectives Lisa Trahan is the lead investigator on this case.
