A question for the locals. Has there been any word whether MSM or cajun net regarding a plea agreement? I would have thought some word of a plea agreement would have started getting around by now. Maybe its just me being impatient.

UGGGHHHHH! What would it take for our newspaper to be PROFESSIONAL enough to check facts, and to right a wrong when they make one?
Hubby told me this morning that I am being too "hard" on the Advertiser. He says the name tells it all.....it is there to Advertise and what news we get is just lagniappe.
According to the report, the truck was found about 40 miles from where he was staying. I have no idea as to the quality of, or which roads he may have taken to get from his sister's to where the truck was located, but I would think it would be no more than an hour drive, absolute tops. So he slips out his bedroom window and leaves around 3am, while the sister is most likely sound asleep (we know he has experience slipping in and out of windows), he gets to where he drops the truck and torches it, he gets back in time to slip back in and be there in time to get up as if nothing happened, goes to his truck to get his shaving kit, and wow, no truck...there is his alibi (he thinks). This seems to me to be the most likely scenario, but if it did happen like this, he HAD to have had someone to drive him back to his sister's, it seems...ALL MOO and JMO.
Shaving kit? I'm declaring shenanigans.
He only shaves in jail.
Maybe he bought a bike? At 10mph it would have taken him 4 hours to bike back. Maybe he left at 11pm , drove an hour, started the fire & rode back?
Wonder if any of the relatives have a motorcycle he could have grabbed the keys to and put into his truck?
Or he could have hitchhiked HWY 150 west to HWY 49 to Conroe and not involved the family.
He may have brought whatever he was using to set fire to the truck with him from LA and scoured out for a place to burn it on his way there. Then went back later.
There is the weak link, imo. The biological sister; the only person that BS Lavergne would have feelings/empathy for...He would protect her..She is why BS Lavergne, came clean, imo..

Maybe he rode her bike back, then ditched it at WB.
Guys who work offshore usually keep all their toiletries in a shaving kit- toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, hairbrush, etc as well as shaving supplies.
As far as him visiting the sister in Texas when the truck diappeared, I just had a thought...maybe it was the sister that caved on him. We had been told by someone claiming inside knowledge that LE was aware of his family in Texas, and his movements there. Dont think that poster was verified, but just say he was right, and LE shows up and the sister's house interrogating her about his visit...Is it out of the realm of believeability that she ratted him out?

ETA...we had heard a family member may have been instrumental in his arrest...we assumed it was his mother...could it have been his sister?
I travel a bit in my career, and I do the same.
But what I was referring to is the fact that the only pics of BSL I've seen where he is clean shaven are his post-booking mugshots.
KATC had 5 pm news about BSLs stay May 30 at his sisters in Texas. When he went to retrieve his shaving kit, his truck was missing..... They stated the truck was found burned about 40 miles from his sisters. They suspect he burned the truck and unsure how he returned to his sisters home.
Very interesting...... Sorry. I was cooking so I wasn't expecting to take notes by paying greater attention.... No link yet.

i don't think that there was anyone out there that KNEW what he had done. there were people suspicious of his wounds, stories, and behaviors, but I don't think he confessed before his arrest. i think he confessed to a family member while he or she was visiting him in jail.
surely he didn't tell his biological sister what he had done and she's been quiet until last week. that would be AWFUL of her
Sorry I didn't see you post the link and I edited mine to add....They said he last saw his truck around 10pm when going to bed, it was parked in the driveway. At 5:30am he went out to get his shaving kit and it was gone, the truck was found burning at 4am

Little FYI - In the early 1900s & before most children went without a name til age 5, due to the mortality rate. The parents didn't want to get too attached...There are family plots with Boy & Girl scratched on them, all over these majestic mountains...
As an experienced grave dowser, and Appalachian people & Apalachee Indian/Moundwellers history buff, I know these things..

Do we know for sure the Advertiser got it wrong & not the Advocate?
