Exactly correct. David McDavid knee it was DTL early on as a result of connecting his MO to crimes in Zachary area to the BR murders. At some point he was able to convince an investigator with the AG to get a warrant for a DTL DNA swab. Even after obtaining it, it sat in the LSP lab bc the task force was convinced it was a white guy. Newer DNA testing revealed that it was an 80% chance the killer was African American , which sent the task force into a tizzy. Then the lady who survived the DTL attack around Broussard gave a decent description of him. All of a sudden dots started to connect and they ran the DTL swab at the lab and got a match.

This is not quite what the media reported. A Tampa area company had developed a way to tell race through DNA so they realized he was probably black.

Once the lady survived, her son told investigators that he was in a gold Hyundai with a Levis Mitsubishi license on the front. They went to the dealer and got names of anyone who had bought one. They then went and got the subpoena for DTL's DNA.

They surveilled him until lab results came back saying it was him.

A lady in St Francisville "began tipping Baton Rouge Police about serial killer suspect Derrick Todd Lee three years before the task force arrested him."

She "called the Baton Rouge Police, the Multi-Agency Homicide Task Force, the St. Martin's Sheriff's Office, the St. Francisville Sheriff's Office and the district attorney."

"No one would listen to me," she said.

quote:

Baton Rouge Police Chief Pat Englade told Karl Koch, Dwyer's attorney, that Dwyer's information was checked out but marginalized because the department was looking for a white man, Koch said.

Yes they did. There was the lady on Florida who had a salon, and I think at least one more, right?

John Williams later Mohammed. He was in the La National Guard. Fun fact: he could run a 15 min 3 miles in his 20s.

There was a serial killer name Robert Carl Hohenberger who operated in the Morgan City-Berwick-Patterson area back in 1978. I am from down there and I was 14 at the time. I remember that my older sister worked at the old TG&Y in Patterson and my dad or mom would always make sure they were there to pick her up before her shift ended. Two of Hohenberger's victims, a high-school girl and her boyfriend, were taken by him from a convenience store just up Hwy 182 from where we lived.
