If you wish your average episode of COPS had a bit more voodoo and oppressive humidity thrown in, then A&E may have the series for you. Cajun Justice, which premieres at 10 tonight, follows the sheriff’s office that patrols Louisiana’s Terrebonne Parish south of New Orleans. It’s a swampland where Sheriff Vernon Bourgeois yields an unusual amount of power thanks to the state’s Napoleonic law, and many of the residents hold to superstitions tied to creatures and spirits they believe roam the area.
