A former Louisiana sheriff’s deputy who admitted in 2016 that he raped a woman drugged by serial rapist Darren Sharper – the ex-National Football League champion – has been transferred from federal prison to a halfway house as he approaches the completion of his sentence.
At the culmination of what was once a nationally prominent criminal case, Brandon Licciardi, 40, pleaded guilty in federal and state courthouses in New Orleans to assisting Sharper’s efforts during prior years to surreptitiously drug women’s drinks with sedatives or anti-anxiety medication so as to rape them.
