Butchers of the Bayou

The investigation focuses on a white guy with a white pickup truck. In March 1994, Ann Bryan is found murdered in her home at the St. James Place retirement community. Despite attempts to catch her killer, the case goes cold.

The tire track found at the Donna Bennett Johnston crime scene provided police with a long list of potential suspects--everyone in the Baton Rouge area who had purchased an Aquatred tire. Detectives were going through the list of potential suspects, eliminating them through alibis and inconsistencies, until finally they showed up at a house of Sean Vincent Gillis.
