Description

Murder in the Bayou: Who Killed the Women Known as the Jeff Davis 8? In 2005 and 2009, eight women were found murdered in Jennings, Louisiana, a small town in the heart of Jefferson Davis parish. The victims, known as the Jeff Davis 8, came from vulnerable backgrounds and engaged in sex work to survive. As local law enforcement pursued a serial killer theory, rumors of police corruption and evidence tampering began to surface. A five-year investigation by author Ethan Brown uncovered thousands of pages of previously unseen homicide files, shedding light on each victim's final hours. By mixing muckraking research with immersive journalism, Brown seeks to answer the questions that remain: what was really going on in the humid rooms of the Boudreaux Inn, and could anything be done to stop the bloodshed?
