We don't know from where exactly he reported the truck stolen (as someone said -- motel, side of road, etc.), nor which hospital in TX he went to -- is this a correct statement? (I may have missed something!)

If it is -- for all we know, he may have reported the truck stolen from the hospital parking lot!

I believe the MOST we know is he reported it stolen in Montgomery County. Needle in a haystack.

Okay, well, let me put it this way: While I was visiting a friend in x parish near Central Louisiana, I was watching "cops". About that time a figure appeared in the door way with a flashlight and I swear it looked like a real cop. I yelled for my friend "anita" and asked her if I was hallucinating or was there really a cop with a flashlight standing in the doorway of the bedroom where I was watching t.v. She walked in and said that they were looking for Boudreau who had been on a work crew that day but had not shown back up that night for evening roll call. Now Boudreau had an arrest record as long as my arm and was serving time with crimes against children, etc. in his background from previous arrests. However, because he was a diesel mechanic and worked on the sheriff's properties, etc. he had a lot more freedom than other prisoners. I have lived and live in a different state and I know that in my present state prisoners are not given as much freedom as they were in Louisiana.

Certainly there are many more criminals capable of committing crimes in Lousiana besides BSL. I am writing this because I know that some folks on here are from other countries and other states and would not even consider that somebody in prison could commit a crime -- but I am here to say and repeat as often as necessary -- I truly believe in Louisiana that exact thing could and does happen. It just depends on what kind of facility they are in and how much the warden or sheriff or whoever trusts that particular inmate. It sounds to me like BSL was trusted and that sets off red warning lights in my head. NOTHING surprises me. It ain't my first rodeo.

I also agree with this. I am also personally familiar with an individual who was convicted of attempted murder in Louisiana who served as a trustee towards the end of his 15 year sentence. Once he was transferred from state prison to parish prison he was able to be out in the community with very little supervision. This transfer process seems similar to the one posted above for BSL. He was even able to visit the hospital where his grandparent was dying without supervision because it was an urgent situation.
 
In Times-Piacyune the other day, ain inmate walked away from a transitional job:
Escaped Lafourche Parish inmate arrested in Houma
Matherne was serving an eight-year prison term and had been assigned as a trustee to work in the kitchen at the transitional facility. Trustees also perform custodial work and other jobs at parish facilities, clean up after parades and festivals and provide grass cutting services around bridges and public buildings.

I'd say its even probable. Everyone around here has surmised that he got his TWIC card to be able to hold an offshort position during that time actually - lots of work release programs provide labor for rigs...unusually unskilled positions from what I understand but I suppose it could transfer into a rig position. He was busy being an outstanding inmate so if anyone qualified to head out into the community...it was the guy completing all of his courses and acting like the model citizen who had been falsely accused. Blah.

Good God! He got his TWIC card while he was incarcerated? Well -- if that is true -- he had connections. That would be interesting because in order to get a TWIC card you are fingerprinted with all ten fingerprints electronically. I have a hard time believing this is true -- but if it is -- then he would have had to have been on a work release program -- which means no one was watching him except sporadically and that means -- as I have said all along --ANYthing is possible...or any murder/rape could have been him anywhere in the U.S. I wonder if about this time wardens and L/E are beginning to type up their resumes and look for different positions--cause --looks like -- the fat lady has not sang quite yet.

Upon further consideration -- if I was in charge of BSL during his imprisonment and I had let him loose upon society in a work release program and he was responsible for committing crime(s) during that time -- I would have gone back and recreated the finest resume possible for him -- all the programs he had completed, what a wonderful person/fine character he was -- all in a CYA program for myself. Is that possible? Does anyone else find it a bit unusual that a serial rapist/killer such as BSL was such a model prisoner? Makes me wonder who exactly was doing that creative writing.....hmmmm....

I hope I don't disturb anyone with this, but I'm a woman with no medical training and I've removed my own stitches. If BSL was really worried about getting caught (I personally think he took a lot of dumb chances and maybe he wasn't all that worried), why would he go to a third hospital just to have stitches removed?

It may have been more that just sutures...If he nicked or severed the tendon in that finger, he would realize that he no longer could bend it within a day or two. Saying this because this happened to me - the first couple of days you aren't even trying to move a cut and swollen finger so much. But after a day or two, you realize that it's not working right anymore and depending on the finger (my injury was to a pinky, and honestly not that big of a deal) but let's say it was his index finger - this would be very big adjustment and need additional medical care to repair. Just my opinion, but if this is the case (tendon injury), then I would have imagined that OHP hospital would have told him of the damaged tendon (as my county hospital did back in 1972) and may have warned him to watch for these signs and go to seek medical care for surgery to repair.

IF this happened to BSL, then he would have sought medical assistance where ever he happened to be at the time -IMO.
 
Yes, those. I live in tat parish & little is said other than 5 appear to be local

Someone was speculating about the Jennings murders a page or two back, I think -- and yes, as part of the discussion about whether BSL may actually have been "out and about" some during what we have as the years of his incarceration.

The sheriff in Winn Parish has a colorful history. Those with a propensity to do so could do some research on that particular character. Does not make me feel very comfortable. I stand my ground -- in my opinion the fact that he was at these places should not rule him out as a suspect if other evidence is found. But as it would be a big embarassment to L/E it may be the connections will never be made and indeed those who say he could never have committed a crime while locked up will be found to be correct. It was suspected that the Jennings murders were done by L/E. Could be that L/E just does not want to admit they trusted someone who should not have been trusted. This is my opinion only. However, I will add that working in the legal field I have written thousands of letters to adjusters for insurance companies describing the legal climate of Louisiana versus other jurisdictions. Louisiana is quite unique and its legal climate was always a challenge to negotiate in -- very different than any other state. With the personal knowledge of the inmates I have known serving time in Louisiana prisons -- I again state -- ANYTHING is possible.

We are thinking alike...I said, well really ask this same thing a few threads back...very plausible that LE would be embarrassed if they suspected a state prisoner involved in the Jennings serial murder. How much leeway did BSL have as a convict from 2000 until 2008? And where did he spend anytime that he was granted away from the prison?

Sorry, but I'm obsessed with this story right now about Christy Briscoe...and just feel sure there is some linkage to BSL - even though he was in jail. I may be totally wrong here, but it makes me perplexed and sad for the victim.

Nov 09, 2007 No sign of foul play :waitasec:

No indication of foul play. Really?! Her tooth is knocked out, her head is swollen, and her face is red and swollen. Unless she was in a car accident, something was certainly foul!

The 'sheriff's properties' as in personal properties??

Just taking a break from pool cleaning and saw this question. Sorry for the duplication, if it's already been answered.

Someguy posted on this thread back on July 12 and introduced himself as a "relative of BSL". He clarified that he was not his brother in a later post. Thread #35 (pretty sure).

Just to add, he is a WS verified insider in Mickey's case.

BBM. That notion came to my mind also Backwoods. This is only my speculation with no basis in verified fact.
Yet another "excuse/reason" type alibi for BSL - like "oh I was at the hospital and when I came out is was gone."

We know nuttin about TX. Wonder if our media folks could make contact with their TX peers and get them to do some investigation work. Like I said in a previous post, I figure LE has all the information on TX and they are keeping it close to the vest right now. Still it would be nice to know some dates/locations there.

It is not allowed here, but if you read about this on Topix...you might change your mind about BL being involved.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but "Someguy" hasn't come back since the GJ returned a true bill. Am I right on that?

I live in the Houston area and if there's been any media coverage other than when Mickey went missing, I missed it. There is so much crime to cover right here, I'm thinking they already have their hands full.
