The first female mayor of DeRidder, Louisiana, Misty Roberts Clanton, has resigned from her post following allegations of sexual relations with a juvenile. The 42-year-old mayor stepped down nearly a week before being charged with third-degree rape and contributing to the delinquency of juveniles.
On August 1, Clanton turned herself in to investigators from the Louisiana State Police Special Victim's Unit at Beauregard Parish Detention Center. The specific age of the juvenile victim involved has not been disclosed.
