The Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office found drugs, guns and bullets in the vehicle driven by a 25-year-old Algiers man who was shot and killed by deputies on Monday in Algiers.
Desmond Willis was killed during a shootout on Manhattan Boulevard in Harvey. The shooting came as officers tried to arrest him following a traffic stop.
An angry Jefferson Parish Sheriff Newell Normand said Willis was part of an ongoing drug investigation. He started a news conference about the incident with a video of Willis talking about shooting police officers. Normand said the video speaks for itself and discredits what Willis' family said about him being good. "Now, not to be insensitive, but I'll be damned if this office is going to stand by and have its reputation impugned by people when this video is out there trying to pollute the minds of our youngsters in the community day in and day out," Normand exclaimed.
In the video, Willis said "f*** cops" and made references to drugs and running away from police.
Tuesday, Willis' grandmother tried to discredit claims by the JPSO that he was involved in criminal activity.
"Desmond was not a bad child and ain't nobody going to label him as a bad child and I'll tell that to the damn police," Barbara Jackson said.

The left is working hard under Obama to pour gas on any fire it can to start a conflagration before November 2016.
This guy definitely wasn’t unarmed!
Damn. I was right there Monday afternoon.
The West Bank of Jefferson Parish makes New Orleans look like Reykjavík.
There is a reason for that.
What is your theory?
Memo to the thug’s grandmother...25 year olds are NOT children!
Barbara Jackson needs to be caned. Literally. Her kind of attitude needs to be stopped immediately and at the same time everyone else with that attitude needs to know if they express it, they too will be caned.
Denial. Either that, or she's trying to get a book deal - $ching ching!$
