VIDALIA — Concordia Parish Sheriff’s Office has apprehended a Denham Springs man wanted for contacting a minor online and making plans to meet them at a hotel room.
Earl Curtis Achord III, 39, has been arrested and charged by CPSO with indecent behavior with juveniles and computer aided solicitation of a minor as well as contractor fraud charges through Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office.
