Additional charges have been filed against a former Webster Parish detective following the completion of an investigation conducted by the state Attorney General’s office.

Spencer W. White, 51, was officially charged Wednesday with one count of malfeasance in office and two counts of trespass against state computers for activities described as intentionally performed in an unlawful manner. Bond on the additional charges is set at $15,000.

White was already facing felony charges including malfeasance in office, three counts of forgery and one count of filing or maintaining public records. At the time of his arrest in June, his bond was set at $185,000.

He was terminated as a result of an internal affairs investigation into potential misconduct. Webster Parish Sheriff Jason Parker referred the matter to the Attorney General’s office for further criminal investigation.
