District Court Judge Christopher Dassau found dead at his home Sunday
WBRZ ^ | January 16, 2022

Nineteenth Judicial District Court Judge Christopher Dassau died suddenly Sunday.

He was found dead at his home on Sinbad Street, sources told WBRZ.

Dassau was elected to District Court in November 2020. Dassau worked under Baker City Attorney Ken Fabre as the City of Baker Prosecutor. He oversaw criminal trials.

"Quite frankly, I'm shaken, as I'm sure many who knew him closely as well as many of those who knew him in the legal community are shaken," Fabre said. "He lived, he loved, he laughed, and he cried, but he will never die because we will remember Chris Dassau, the young man who felt he was born to be a judge."

Baker Mayor Darnell Waites told WBRZ in a statement, Dassau will be "deeply missed."

He said the judge was a respected colleague and friend.

"It is with great regret and sadness that I learned today of the passing of Judge Christopher R. Dassau. His honorable service and dedication throughout his career to the City of Baker, East Baton Rouge Parish and the State of Louisiana will be deeply missed. He was not only a respected colleague but a true friend. My deepest sympathies are with his family and loved ones today." Mayor Waites said in a statement.

He was a prosecutor for Baker prior to serving in the 19th Judicial District Court. Judge Dassau was committed to justice and progress in our community. Please keep his family and loved ones in your thoughts and prayers," Mayor-President Sharon Weston Broome said.

Sources told WBRZ a family member called police for a welfare check after not hearing from Dassau. Police knocked down the door of his home after knocking and no one answered. Dassau was found on the floor next to his bed, sources said. He may have been dead for some time, sources said.

Details about what caused his death were not immediately available but sources said his death was from a health issue.

That is the plan. And the Public is doing everything in their power to insure that it is successful. Get that jab. From that point forward, your days on this Earth that the Lord giveth you are few.

Modern journalism: ten paragraphs about his death, and his age is not given.

"Can’t find his age in any article about his death. Any idea?"

Welcome to modern journalism.

“This was many, many years ago.”

We have much better prevention testing for heart problems now than many years ago.

“Welcome to modern journalism.”

You think they are deliberately minimizing young people dying?

Not unless the death is possibly vaccine related. But I'm not speculating on that in this case, I'm just complaining about shoddy journalism.

And then the press will add: “he had a booster 4 days ago but that had nothing to do with his natural sudden passing and to suggest otherwise is just anti-vaxxers conspiracy crap”

Disclaimer: I don’t know what he died of.

RIP Judge.

It’s a good bet if he were unvaccinated, it would be prominently displayed. But district judges are federal employees and so must be vaccinated by last year’s Order of Brandon.

Of course… from what else could he have possibly died? I have no idea what people died from before COVID-19 vaccines came along.

People drop dead. Posting these articles and relating them to the vaccine based on no facts,
Is a lot like attributing weather events to global warming.
