Update on Boyce man charged with 25 counts of pornography involving juveniles

As the Rapides Parish Sheriff’s Office continued its investigation, and through a joint investigation with the Grant Parish Sheriff’s Office, Detectives uncovered additional items of evidence that provided sufficient probable cause to obtain an additional arrest warrant for John Thomas Rougeou, 54 of Boyce.
 
Rapides Detectives obtained arrest warrants for two counts of nonconsensual disclosure of images. From their investigation, Grant Detectives also obtained arrest warrants on Rougeou for pornography involving juveniles.
 
On June 28 Rougeou was located off of Highway 1200 by the Rapides Patrol / Resident Deputies and he was taken into custody without incident. Rougeou was transported and booked into the Rapides Parish Detention Center for the Rapides warrants and a Louisiana Fugitive detainer for Grant Parish. Rougeou remains in jail at the time of this release being held on a $110,000 bond.
 
Sheriff’s Detectives say their investigation is still ongoing and more charges are possible.
