Letter From The President

Coming soon!

Bobby Madison Sr.

Town of Clayton

It is my honor to introduce myself as Chief Bobby L. Madison Sr., currently serving my third term as Chief of Police for the Town of Clayton, Louisiana. With over 23 years of dedicated service in law enforcement, I have built my career on integrity, leadership, and a deep commitment to the safety and well-being of the community I serve.

A proud native of Louisiana, I graduated from Ferriday High School and later completed my formal law enforcement training at the St. Charles Police Academy. My career began with the Concordia Parish Sheriff’s Department, where I proudly served as a Shift Sergeant, gaining valuable experience in frontline leadership and community policing.

Throughout my career, I have remained deeply rooted in the values of service and accountability. As Chief of Police in Clayton, I have worked to build strong relationships between law enforcement and the public, promote transparency, and ensure the safety of every resident in our community.

Outside of my professional duties, I am a devoted family man. I have been married to my wife, Shannon, for 35 years, and we are blessed with four children and eighteen grandchildren. My family continues to be my greatest source of strength and inspiration.

As a lifelong public servant, I remain committed to upholding the highest standards of law enforcement and working with my fellow officers, local leaders, and citizens to build a safer, stronger Louisiana.

I’ve been honored to serve our Association in many capacities — from Sergeant at Arms and Secretary-Treasurer to 2nd Vice President, 1st Vice President, and now President. I sincerely thank you for your trust and support, and I pledge to continue working hard to move our Association forward in a positive direction.

 Sincerely,
Bobby L. Madison Sr.
Chief of Police
Town of Clayton, Louisiana
