Seven women were raped and murdered by Derrick Todd Lee, a man with an IQ of 65 who terrorized the Baton Rouge area from 1992 to 2003. One woman, 22-year-old Charlotte Pace, was stabbed 81 times with a flathead screwdriver and knife. Lee is currently on death row in Louisiana.
Tony Frudakis, head of a forensics laboratory in Sarasota, Fla., claims to have perfected a new DNA technology — called SNIPS, or single nucleotide polymorphism — that breaks the ethnicity of a murder suspect down by percentage. In more than 3,000 blind tests of the SNIPS technology, Frudakis’ lab has not yet confirmed a single error, he says.

Frudakis offered the technology to authorities in Louisiana looking for the Baton Rouge serial killer. And the new DNA test led to a break in the case.

As far back as September 2002, a police profile suggested the suspect was likely a white man aged 25 to 35. Even just before the arrest of suspect Derrick Todd Lee, a black man, authorities were following an FBI profile that pegged the killer as most likely white.

After studying DNA found at one of the crime scenes, Frudakis concluded that the Baton Rouge serial killer had about 80 percent African affiliation and 15 percent Native American affiliation. In other words, the killer was not white after all.

Investigators shifted their focus and eventually arrested Lee, 34, in May in connection with the slayings of at least five women in southern Louisiana beginning September 2001.

Southern University Band ‘95 Bayou Classic Halftime

Posted by admin on November 21st, 2009 and filed under bayou | 18 Comments »

The Southern University Marching Band performs at the Louisiana Superdome during the 1995 Bayou Classic football game between Southern and Grambling.

Drum Major: Chandler Green

They were about to play “Thriller” when the video ends. The network only showed about 10 seconds of it anyway.

(I always thought they sounded much better than Grambling too.)

Tippecanoe County Siren Test (poor quality)

Posted by admin on October 25th, 2009 and filed under tippecanoe county | 5 Comments »

This poor quality video was taken with my cell phone back in March when Indiana conducted it’s statewide tornado drill around 7pm. I’ve put off uploading this because of the bad quality but I decided to anyways. Sirens heard are a 2T22, a 3T22, a STH10, and some 2001’s. Filmed near Purdue West at Purdue University.

Thought I’d get a recording of Purdue’s sirens being tested while walking to the football game. You can hear the Thunderbolt 1000T on West Lafayette High School and the 2T22 on the Pharmacy building.
