On July 25, Roberts told city officials she would be out of the office for two weeks and appointed Fire Chief Ken Harlow as acting mayor while she was gone, the American Press, a Lake Charles, Louisiana news outlet, reported. She resigned two days later on July 27. Roberts’ attorney Adam Johnson said his client is innocent in a statement to KPLC. “She has not been charged with a crime and/or convicted of any crime,” he said in the statement. “And we trust the public will respect her constitutional presumption of innocence which is fundamental to our system of justice. Misty and her family are very grateful for the support they have received from their friends and neighbors and we look forward to putting this unfortunate situation behind them.” Elected in 2018, Roberts, an independent, became the first woman to become DeRidder’s mayor, The Associated Press reported. She won reelection in 2022. A graduate of DeRidder High School in 2000, Roberts earned a Bachelor of Science degree in mass communications from McNeese State University in 2004, CBS News reported. Before becoming mayor, she was the city’s director of community service for nine years.
