He was serving a life sentence for second-degree murder following a conviction in 2024 for opening fire at a Mardi Gras block party that killed two people and wounded several others.

The Orleans Parish District Attorney’s Office has described Groves as a “cold-blooded killer” with a history of violent crime.

Federal investigators previously said they believe Groves received help from outside accomplices, including a former jail employee and girlfriend, Darriana Burton, who has since been arrested and charged with aiding the escape.

They all are related to someone in Atlanta. Fact. That’s why so many are caught there.

Groves is the grandson of Kim Groves, who was killed in a notorious murder-for-hire plot in the Ninth Ward in 1994, the DA’s office said.

She was a 32-year-old mother of three when the hit was ordered by New Orleans Police Department Officer Len Davis, WDSU reported.

Sympathy for a convicted killer
This time around, many of the social media posts about Groves have come from supporters, some of whom seem to reference his grandmother’s death at the hands of a police officer as a reason to extend him sympathy.

“DERRICK GROVES is the only inmate i dont blame for what he did to qo to jail i hope he neva qet cauqht,” one X user wrote.


It's amazing how many X users are fully supporting him on the run.
