Documentaries RE: The Louisiana Serial Killers

I have seen some one off episodes on some crime shows here and there. But does anyone know if there is a specific dedicated documentary that looks into the timeframe that McGillis and Lee were both active in BTR?
I get that it has been a spiraling crime issue there for awhile, but to have two active killers in a town that size, working within close timeframes, is absolutely mind boggling.
In my old life I knew some baws who worked on those cases, and the behind the curtain shite regarding the politics, rivalries and machinations of the involved agencies/ people was wild.
If there is a doc or book that focuses specifically on that area in that time frame I’d love to see it.

You can give this a shot, maybe it covers what you're looking for: A&E documentary

And then right around that same time, one of the DC snipers happened to be from Baton Rouge.
Wild times.
Wild times.

There was a two episode special or something that came on the Oxygen network in 2022 or so entitled “Serial Killer Capital: Baton Rouge.” It’s currently streaming on Peacock.

McGillis
Seeing that dude’s interrogation tapes. He LOVED to relive his sick fantasies. Bragged constantly about his killings.

Butchers on the bayou. It was on a&e but can be found on Hulu. Its about Derrick todd Lee and the other serial killer that was running around Baton rouge, at the same time.

There are two separate books about Lee and Gillis that are pretty detailed. Blood Bath and Dismembered. Both written by Susan Mustafa and others. They also mention the possibility of a third serial killer in BTR at that time because Lee and Gillis had very distinct MO’s. There were other murders that did not fit them.

The crazy part is that many of us believe there was a 3rd operating and overlapping during the same time period. We all know, that if they could pin all the dead hookers in NBR to these two, they would. I want to say they’ve got one or two that may be attributable to one of them but not all of them.

Yes there is a two part series on the Baton Rouge serial killers, DT Lee, Sean Vincent Gillis, and Jeffery Lee Guillory
Google “Serial Killer Capital:Baton Rouge”
Most of this series is the real people involved.
