Anyone get these around their parts. The "Lafayette" are is looking for another one now. This one has been going on for the last three years. They found another body yesterday which is the 7th... (from the article below)
All the women were in their 20s and had escalated levels of cocaine and alcohol in their bodies when they were found in rural but public areas of the small, poor parish.
With a seventh body found Saturday that is suspected to be that of the 17-year-old relative of one of the victims, officials are investigating tips but are without a lead suspect.
Although all the dead women used drugs - most commonly crack cocaine - and sometimes traded sex for drugs, spent time in jail, knew each other and were disposed of in similar ways, authorities hesitate to say a serial killer is responsible for their deaths.
Clues have been difficult to find as all but one body was found in an advanced state of decomposition.
The body that was found within hours of death, however, was doused in bleach, destroying most evidence.
The other women's bodies were placed in areas where they were easily exposed to the elements, water and alligators. Only three of the deaths have been ruled as homicides, while the causes of the other three deaths were never found.
