“To my friends, extended family, fans, and supporters, I have been handed a dark and dangerous path that I must pass through. Should you read or hear about me, I hope you will say a prayer for me and my family. And I pray you will trust in me and believe in me, because Justice will prevail. That is my promise to you.”

Acosta, 67, a well-known south Louisiana blues musician, was arrested Thursday and accused of sexual molestation of a then 7-year-old girl.
Authorities said they were initially called to investigate the allegations in 2015, but the victim did not come forward with information about alleged abuse. Court documents state the victim’s mom called investigators again in May 2017 and according to the arrest warrant, the victim told them Acosta sexually abused her starting in 2013 when she was seven years old. source
The court documents show Acosta’s attorney gave authorities the results of a lie detector test taken by Acosta after he was confronted with the allegations. The document did not state the results of the test.
