2
00:00:15.560 --> 00:00:26.079
A Wall Street line, Shackle Chaine, Oh someome girdie, it's

3
00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:32.560
calling my name. There is no mercy and it's been

4
00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:42.119
a tentery juice as the huge stream game Rango three.

5
00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:53.600
Come here by me or die inside these walls, inside

6
00:00:53.679 --> 00:00:59.479
the wild hadn't went more girls?

7
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:34.400
I Hey everyone, and welcome back to Bloody and Gola,

8
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:38.680
a podcast one forty two years and making the complete

9
00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:43.120
story of America's bloody is prison. I'm Jim Chapman, and

10
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:46.120
I want to thank everyone for checking us out this

11
00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:49.280
week on Bloody and Gola. And look, we don't just

12
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:56.359
feature the history of America's bloodiest prison. Although last week's episode, man,

13
00:01:56.480 --> 00:02:00.159
I went way back. If you are into the history

14
00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:05.840
of prisons in general, but especially Louisiana State Penitentiary, check

15
00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:09.199
that episode out. I think it was really interesting. But

16
00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:12.240
that's not all I do. I also feature stories of

17
00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:16.080
the incarcerated there, and today I'm going to take you

18
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:20.919
not only through a case and an investigation, but also

19
00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:26.759
the conviction and eventual incarceration at Louisiana State Penitentiary of

20
00:02:26.840 --> 00:02:32.199
those responsible for the murder of Janoor Guillery. And before

21
00:02:32.199 --> 00:02:34.439
I get into it, I want to shout out Miss

22
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:39.240
Nicole Bess. I would say, quite a while ago she

23
00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:42.439
sent me a message asking me to do a story

24
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:46.960
on this particular case. And so miss Nicole, I finally

25
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:50.159
got to it, and here it is. I hope you

26
00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:52.479
enjoy it. So I'm going to take you back to

27
00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:56.800
June twenty sixth, in the year two thousand and in

28
00:02:56.840 --> 00:03:01.639
the small community of Clinton, Louisiana. Now on a seemingly

29
00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:06.000
normal Monday morning, a deputy sheriff by the name of

30
00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:10.120
Ronald Johnson. He gets a call to perform what's known

31
00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:15.039
as a wellness check at a home in East Feliciana Parish.

32
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:18.800
So he shows up to this rural house and as

33
00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:22.560
soon as he gets to the door, he's welcomed by

34
00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:27.240
what you would referred to as the scent of death.

35
00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:31.520
Just an odor that is unmistakable. I know a lot

36
00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:34.479
of you out there when there's a pet, maybe you

37
00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:37.240
lived by some woods or something, and an animal gets

38
00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:39.639
killed in the woods and you can smell it after

39
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:43.879
a couple of days. Well, that time's ten right now,

40
00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:49.800
even for this season, Deputy, it took him aback. So

41
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:55.560
he makes entry into the home and that scent intentifies

42
00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:59.280
and he's almost like a bloodhound. He's following the strength

43
00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:04.360
of that just horrid scent, and that scent eventually leads

44
00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:09.840
him into a master bedroom where just an absolutely gruesome

45
00:04:10.639 --> 00:04:15.759
scene awaits him. So he peers into that bedroom and

46
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:18.959
there he sees the body of a forty two year

47
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:25.439
old named Jenior Gillery. She is lifeless and nude on

48
00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:29.000
the floor. The scene was so gruesome, in fact, that

49
00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:33.959
he walked outside the house, picks up his CB two

50
00:04:34.319 --> 00:04:39.079
radio for back up to the house, and throws up

51
00:04:39.439 --> 00:04:42.480
by his patrol car, now detected by the name of

52
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:46.879
Don McKee. He arrives on the scene shortly after, and

53
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:49.519
they get to work trying to figure out what the

54
00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:54.519
hell happened to this woman. So before I go any further,

55
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:57.480
I want to give you a little information on Jenior

56
00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:01.199
Gillery and who she was. She was a beatiful black woman.

57
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:05.680
She lived a modest, yet fulfilling life in a two

58
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:10.399
story wood framed home on the end of a gravel

59
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:15.519
road in Clinton, Louisiana. And as common in that Clinton,

60
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:20.079
Louisiana area, most of your homes are surrounded by some acreage.

61
00:05:20.519 --> 00:05:25.160
These aren't neighborhoods, and she had several acres that surrounded

62
00:05:25.240 --> 00:05:28.560
her home. She also had a love for animals, dogs

63
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:32.319
in particulars. As matter of fact, she had thirty dogs

64
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:36.560
that she kept safely kindled in her back property. And

65
00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:39.759
she also loved horses, and she had four horses which

66
00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:45.439
she stabled nearby. Now, in her personal life, Janor was

67
00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:49.279
a personnel specialist at an insurance firm in Baton Ridge,

68
00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:54.160
which is about sixty miles from where she lived in Clinton,

69
00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:58.519
and she absolutely loved her job. She was known by

70
00:05:58.519 --> 00:06:03.480
her colleagues as very very professional, very kind, very positive,

71
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:07.560
and very generous. As a matter of fact, a coworker

72
00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:12.560
of hers named Linda Kuno actually described her as the

73
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:17.839
most generous person she ever encountered. So this is not

74
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:21.879
someone you would think would end up with the fate

75
00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:26.959
that I'm about to tell you about. On this particular Friday,

76
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:31.680
Janor had taken a half day off to clean her house. However,

77
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:35.759
on that Monday, when she failed to arrive at work,

78
00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:40.120
which was not like her at all, her friends knew

79
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:43.720
something wasn't right, something had to be wrong, so they

80
00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:49.399
started calling her cell phone and they get no answer. Voicemail, voicemail, voicemail.

81
00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:54.639
So they call her house and it's busy. They call

82
00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:57.439
it again, it's busy. They do this for several hours

83
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:01.000
and it's obvious the phone is off the hook on

84
00:07:01.079 --> 00:07:05.519
her landline. So that's when they reach out to the

85
00:07:05.639 --> 00:07:09.360
East Flea Sienna pair of Sheriff's department and they say, hey,

86
00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:13.759
can you go check on miss g as she was known.

87
00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:18.360
So back on the crime scene, Detective McKee, he finds

88
00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:22.920
himself making entry into the residence. He noticed that a

89
00:07:23.160 --> 00:07:27.120
side door to Jennor's house was a jar and there

90
00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:32.639
was a pretty intimidating black and tan chiwd tied up

91
00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:37.800
right outside that door. He didn't notice any forced entry

92
00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:41.000
into the home as he stepped inside, and he did

93
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:45.519
notice bloodstains on the hardwood floor and they were very prevalent,

94
00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:49.600
which told him this is going to be a bad scene.

95
00:07:50.079 --> 00:07:53.439
So in the kitchen he sees a utensil drawer that

96
00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:57.639
was still open and there were several bloody knives inside

97
00:07:57.639 --> 00:08:00.240
of that drawer. As a matter of fact, in this

98
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:03.639
section of the house, it was obvious to the detective

99
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:08.959
this is where Geniore was initially attacked, and it appeared

100
00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:13.240
that she was pursued throughout that house in an attempt

101
00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:16.600
to escape whoever did this to her, And it was

102
00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:22.439
obvious that that scene culminated in the bedroom where it appeared.

103
00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:26.720
The chaos pretty much reached his peak. Inside that bedroom,

104
00:08:27.000 --> 00:08:30.000
Detective McKee, he saw the same thing that that Deputy

105
00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:35.840
Sheriff Ronald Johnson saw. Gennoor's body was crumpled beside her bed.

106
00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:40.720
Her skull in particular, just bore the marks of a

107
00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:46.519
brutal assault. He noticed knife wing puncture marks in several areas,

108
00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:51.360
and even gunshot wounds. Glancing around the room, he really

109
00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:57.000
saw the story. There was broken furniture, shattered glass, even

110
00:08:57.279 --> 00:09:01.840
streaks of blood across the walls. It was just horrific.

111
00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:05.759
As he's investigating this scene, as you would think, word

112
00:09:05.919 --> 00:09:08.000
kind of starts to get out. I mean, this is

113
00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:11.000
a small town, right and there's at this point a

114
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:14.840
ton of police cars on the scene. Everybody, all these neighbors,

115
00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:17.720
even though there's a lot of acreage between everybody, they

116
00:09:17.720 --> 00:09:20.159
see him driving down the road and they're calling other

117
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:24.279
neighbors what happened to miss g And eventually a gathering

118
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:27.080
starts taking place in front of the crime scene that

119
00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:32.320
included family, friends, even co workers, left work and drove

120
00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:36.840
to Jenor's home. So the investigation is on right, and

121
00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:40.360
they're working it from the inside out. As they work

122
00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:44.559
all these cases, you start with the people closest to him,

123
00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:49.000
and you roll them out and keep going outside that circle,

124
00:09:49.159 --> 00:09:51.960
if you will. In that circle, it leads them to

125
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:56.480
a young white couple named Philip and Amy Skipper. Now

126
00:09:56.879 --> 00:10:00.639
this young couple, they were navigating challenges, a lot of

127
00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:04.639
challenges in life. At this time. They were new parents.

128
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:08.080
They were just twenty three years old, and they had

129
00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:12.120
recently welcomed a baby boy. They were also caring for

130
00:10:12.159 --> 00:10:15.039
a fifteen year old by the name of John Bellio,

131
00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:19.440
and Jenore, being the generous person that she was, she

132
00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:22.120
wants to take them under her wing, right, she wants

133
00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:25.799
to help them, so she gave them some employment opportunities,

134
00:10:25.840 --> 00:10:30.120
including taking care of her dogs and horses and maintaining

135
00:10:30.200 --> 00:10:33.320
her property, and they kind of became friends. As a

136
00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:37.440
matter of fact, she even facilitated a birthday celebration for

137
00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:42.000
that new born son of theirs. And the Skippers, who

138
00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:44.399
did not even have a telephone, they were more than

139
00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:48.039
welcome to use Jenior's phone anytime she made that available

140
00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:50.879
to them when they needed to use the phone. So

141
00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:55.759
police they work the case and they come across a

142
00:10:55.840 --> 00:11:02.039
situation involving Jenore and one of their own, a forty

143
00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:05.679
five year old Baton Ridge police officer that was recently

144
00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:09.279
hired by the department, and there were some claims that

145
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:14.519
he had been stalking Gennore according to her co workers

146
00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:19.360
and friends. Now her co worker said that he was

147
00:11:19.399 --> 00:11:23.519
bombarding her with phone calls at her workplace, sometimes two

148
00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:26.480
three times a day, and they had only been on

149
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:30.039
him one date and it was pretty brief, and according

150
00:11:30.080 --> 00:11:35.039
to Genial's colleagues, it quickly soured. There was just nothing there,

151
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:39.000
but she felt uncomfortable with this guy. She would talk

152
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:42.559
to her friends about it, and she tries to distance

153
00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:45.399
herself from him. She even tells her friends, look, if

154
00:11:45.399 --> 00:11:47.919
he calls me at the office, just say I'm not here,

155
00:11:47.960 --> 00:11:52.080
say I'm busy. I don't want to talk to this guy. Now,

156
00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:55.360
despite making it what you would think would be completely

157
00:11:55.519 --> 00:11:58.279
obvious to this guy that she didn't want anything to

158
00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:01.960
do with him, it just made him pursue her harder.

159
00:12:02.440 --> 00:12:06.360
He would show up uninvited at Genor's home and he

160
00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:09.879
would be seen kind of lurking around her office while

161
00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:13.639
she was there. In one evening, while she was attending

162
00:12:13.639 --> 00:12:17.279
to her horses, he shows up at her house unannounced,

163
00:12:18.159 --> 00:12:23.519
which really concerned her, and shortly before her tragic death,

164
00:12:23.600 --> 00:12:28.039
he even indicated any message on her cellphone that he

165
00:12:28.279 --> 00:12:33.120
was going to come visit her that weekend, so obviously

166
00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:38.120
a lot of red flags to detective Damn McKee. So

167
00:12:38.279 --> 00:12:43.639
McKee he asked this BRPD officer. He says, man, you're

168
00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:46.360
popping up all over the place in this case. Would

169
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:50.000
you mind taking a polygraph? And the police officer agrees

170
00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:54.799
to do that, and guess what, he fails that lit

171
00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:59.639
detective tests. Now doesn't necessarily mean you're lying. False positives

172
00:12:59.679 --> 00:13:02.399
happen a lot. That's why it's not admissible in court.

173
00:13:02.720 --> 00:13:05.840
But it's not good. So the detective lets him know,

174
00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:08.559
hey man, you failed this lit of detector test. I

175
00:13:08.639 --> 00:13:10.639
want to talk to you about this some more. And

176
00:13:10.679 --> 00:13:15.559
at that point the BRPD officer says, fuck that, I

177
00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:18.279
want my lawyer. I'm not saying anything else, so he

178
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:20.960
lawyer's up. They don't have enough evidence at all. They

179
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:23.320
don't have any evidence in order to kind of keep

180
00:13:23.399 --> 00:13:26.159
him locked up, so they have to let him go

181
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:29.799
until they can get some evidence, right, So detective McKee

182
00:13:29.879 --> 00:13:34.679
he's doing everything at this point that he can to

183
00:13:34.799 --> 00:13:38.960
find a link between this BRPD officer and the death

184
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:44.039
of Genore. He's looking for evidence anywhere, and he does

185
00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:47.480
end up finding a few things a twenty two caliber

186
00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:54.440
weapon and some matching bloody footprints, but nothing concrete enough

187
00:13:54.720 --> 00:14:00.399
that would definitely say this police officer killed Jeniore. Out

188
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:06.399
throughout this case, obviously the local media starts taking notice,

189
00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:12.279
and especially when a BRPD officer is involved in the

190
00:14:12.360 --> 00:14:16.320
case and maybe even looked at as a suspect, they're

191
00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:19.480
on it and they publish a headline and that headline

192
00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:26.399
said police officer suspected in slaying, which obviously totally shocks

193
00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:32.440
the community, puts everyone on edge. And the detective McKee

194
00:14:32.759 --> 00:14:35.840
he has to walk that back and so he does

195
00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:38.440
some interviews and he says, look, we were looking at

196
00:14:38.440 --> 00:14:41.200
this guy. He had a relationship with Jennoor, but there

197
00:14:41.279 --> 00:14:44.080
was nothing concrete to say he's involved in any way,

198
00:14:44.559 --> 00:14:52.879
shape or form, etc. And sadly, eventually that case grows

199
00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:57.600
kind of cold. You know, detective McKee, he's busy, he's

200
00:14:57.720 --> 00:15:00.320
working other cases. As a matter of fact, at that

201
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:04.720
time it was like he was a magnet for higher profile,

202
00:15:04.879 --> 00:15:07.559
harder to solve cases. They had a murder of a

203
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:10.679
local drug dealer he was working. They had a man

204
00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:13.919
who was killed in his own home that he was

205
00:15:14.080 --> 00:15:18.000
working in addition to the Jenore case, and they even

206
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:20.480
had a disappearance of a two year old boy. During

207
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:25.519
that time, a criminal known as one Eyed Boo was

208
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:28.840
killed and he was working that case, so he had

209
00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:32.559
plenty to keep him busy. And unfortunately, there just wasn't

210
00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:36.480
anything there in the case of Jeneire in her murder

211
00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:41.120
that would lead to anything at that time, but the

212
00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:46.720
case of Jenire Guillery in particular, it haunted that detective.

213
00:15:46.799 --> 00:15:49.559
He wanted to solve it. He couldn't get the images

214
00:15:49.720 --> 00:15:53.200
of the brutality of that case out of his mind.

215
00:15:53.440 --> 00:15:56.759
Yet every clue he tracked led to pretty much a

216
00:15:56.879 --> 00:16:00.200
dead end. He was quoted as saying, I couldn't find

217
00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:05.399
one bad thing out about this woman. Every lead I

218
00:16:05.639 --> 00:16:11.600
chase seemed to vanish, and I'm frustrated. However, on July

219
00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:16.399
twenty seventh of twenty twenty one, there was a breakthrough

220
00:16:16.679 --> 00:16:19.799
in that case when a call from a detective in

221
00:16:20.279 --> 00:16:27.440
Tangipahoa Parish changed everything for the detective. So another detective

222
00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:30.720
call McKee and he said, I heard you were looking

223
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:34.799
into a year old homicide and I have a victim

224
00:16:35.320 --> 00:16:39.039
here that I'm working with that has some information on

225
00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:43.200
that possibly. Now, the victim in that case was a

226
00:16:43.279 --> 00:16:46.039
twenty three year old woman who was involved in an

227
00:16:46.080 --> 00:16:51.360
abusive relationship. So she files a complaint against her boyfriend

228
00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:57.320
for assault in tangipahoe A Parish, and she mentions that

229
00:16:57.399 --> 00:17:01.399
her boyfriend also had information about the murder of a

230
00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:05.599
woman in Clinton known to Manny as Miss g. So

231
00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:08.559
these two detectives, they're talking to each other on the

232
00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:12.359
telephone and McKee is fired up about this new information

233
00:17:13.000 --> 00:17:16.240
and he hangs up the phone. He says, we're coming there.

234
00:17:16.359 --> 00:17:18.759
We want to talk to her, and he rounds up

235
00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:23.599
his sheriff, who is known as Sheriff Bunch and Detective

236
00:17:23.880 --> 00:17:28.720
Joel Odom. They speed towards Tanjebaho Paris to see what

237
00:17:28.880 --> 00:17:32.359
information they could get out of this twenty three year

238
00:17:32.359 --> 00:17:35.319
old victim. So that twenty three year old victim, she

239
00:17:35.519 --> 00:17:40.039
tells McKee the same story regarding her boyfriend and what

240
00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:45.279
he told her, and that boyfriend's name was Donnie Fisher.

241
00:17:46.200 --> 00:17:50.680
So they look in to Donnie Fisher and this guy, y'all,

242
00:17:50.839 --> 00:17:55.519
he is about as shady as they come. He was

243
00:17:55.559 --> 00:17:58.240
only twenty six years old, yet he had a rap

244
00:17:58.319 --> 00:18:02.200
sheet as long as a free and CVS receipt. He

245
00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:05.799
was a drug dealer, a thief, an armed robber. He's

246
00:18:05.839 --> 00:18:10.200
not exactly the guy you'd want your kids to hang

247
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:12.720
out with, or you'd want to hang out with if

248
00:18:12.759 --> 00:18:14.440
you were an upstanding citizen.

249
00:18:14.559 --> 00:18:14.799
Right.

250
00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:17.759
So they go to talk to Donnie Fisher and they

251
00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:20.839
pull him into the station and they question him and

252
00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:26.119
McKee was armed with these crime scene photos and as

253
00:18:26.160 --> 00:18:29.839
they're talking to Donnie Fisher and y'all, this is a

254
00:18:29.880 --> 00:18:33.200
tactic in law enforcement, he starts pulling out those gruesome

255
00:18:33.240 --> 00:18:37.519
pictures and he picks the most heart wrenching ones of

256
00:18:37.599 --> 00:18:42.720
Janor's lifeless body on the floor with blood everywhere, her

257
00:18:42.759 --> 00:18:47.720
head barely recognizable, and he slams those photos down on

258
00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:51.440
the table in front of Fisher and he yells did

259
00:18:51.640 --> 00:19:00.400
she deserve this? And right there Fisher breaks and oh,

260
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:06.359
what a story he has to tell. So Fisher reveals

261
00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:11.279
that the night after Jenore was murdered, he and his

262
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:16.720
girlfriend moved in with none other than Philip and Amy Skipper,

263
00:19:16.880 --> 00:19:21.640
along with a teenager name John Ballelo. And he says

264
00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:25.559
that they were actually hired to clean up Jenior's house

265
00:19:25.839 --> 00:19:30.279
after the murder by Jenior's family, and when they were

266
00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:35.000
all busy with the cleanup, he said, balle Loo casually

267
00:19:35.440 --> 00:19:40.559
drops a bombshell about how they took out Jenore. He

268
00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:45.680
basically says Balleto spills all the details. He said that

269
00:19:46.119 --> 00:19:50.400
Balato said they shot her, stabbed her, and even used

270
00:19:50.440 --> 00:19:54.920
a baseball bat. And it gets worse. He even told

271
00:19:55.039 --> 00:20:02.319
Fisher that post mortem they took turns. He went on

272
00:20:02.400 --> 00:20:05.599
to say that later that night, after they clean up

273
00:20:05.640 --> 00:20:10.440
the house, Philip Skipper he's pissed at balle Loo because

274
00:20:10.440 --> 00:20:14.359
he heard him telling Fisher all this. So the next day,

275
00:20:14.880 --> 00:20:18.200
Skipper tells Fisher, hey, man, let's go take a ride.

276
00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:20.319
And they get in the car and they start hitting

277
00:20:20.400 --> 00:20:24.960
down these country roads and rural Louisiana right and one

278
00:20:25.039 --> 00:20:28.240
of these roads in particular, is just totally deserted. Nothing

279
00:20:28.319 --> 00:20:30.200
on either side of the road. You're in the middle

280
00:20:30.200 --> 00:20:33.480
of nowhere. And Fisher said, at that point, I thought

281
00:20:33.519 --> 00:20:35.400
he was going to kill me and just dump me

282
00:20:35.480 --> 00:20:39.119
in the middle of nowhere, but he said instead Philip

283
00:20:39.160 --> 00:20:44.400
Fisher actually confirmed Ballelow's story, saying what would you think

284
00:20:44.400 --> 00:20:48.440
about I told you we killed miss g and Fisher

285
00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:52.759
said he responded with I wouldn't think nothing. You wouldn't

286
00:20:52.799 --> 00:20:57.279
trust me no more. So Philip Skipper kind of ends

287
00:20:57.319 --> 00:21:02.000
the conversation with if if you ever talk, I'm going

288
00:21:02.079 --> 00:21:09.400
to kill you. God forgives, but the Brotherhood don't. And

289
00:21:09.480 --> 00:21:13.160
I'll get back to what the Brotherhood is a little

290
00:21:13.240 --> 00:21:17.240
later on in the story. So back to the investigation,

291
00:21:17.359 --> 00:21:21.680
and when you're working a murder case and you're a detective,

292
00:21:22.160 --> 00:21:28.039
there's three things that you need. You need means, opportunity,

293
00:21:28.839 --> 00:21:34.200
and motive. And guess what, Philip Skipper he had all three.

294
00:21:35.279 --> 00:21:39.839
He lived right across the street, he had easy access

295
00:21:40.119 --> 00:21:43.960
to the weapons, and even had a key to Genoor's

296
00:21:43.960 --> 00:21:48.480
house through his wife. But the big question was why

297
00:21:50.119 --> 00:21:53.400
why would he want to kill her? I mean, initially

298
00:21:53.559 --> 00:21:58.680
the Skippers were friends with Jennire, but as the detective

299
00:21:58.799 --> 00:22:02.640
dug deeper, he found out there was a situation that

300
00:22:02.759 --> 00:22:07.039
caused a rift between the Skippers and Jenore and it

301
00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:10.480
came down to a goat of all things, sa McKey.

302
00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:14.000
He discovers that a month before Jenore's death, one of

303
00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:18.759
Jenoor's pitbulls killed a goat that belonged to the Skippers.

304
00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:23.279
So Amy Skipper, the wife, she goes over to Jenoor's

305
00:22:23.400 --> 00:22:30.200
house and she basically rips her ass over this over

306
00:22:30.319 --> 00:22:34.839
a goat, to the point that Jenore is crying. The

307
00:22:34.920 --> 00:22:38.559
fight was so intense, in fact, that Jenore told several

308
00:22:38.680 --> 00:22:43.039
of her friends after this and even stated that she

309
00:22:43.240 --> 00:22:48.240
was done with the Skippers for good. But the detective,

310
00:22:48.680 --> 00:22:53.880
he's thinking, there's no way a goat would cause them

311
00:22:54.000 --> 00:22:58.599
to murder Jenore so brutally, so he keeps digging and

312
00:22:58.640 --> 00:23:03.799
he discovers something else that would be an even larger motive,

313
00:23:04.480 --> 00:23:07.640
and that was a twenty five thousand dollars life insurance

314
00:23:07.680 --> 00:23:12.920
policy that Janore had in which Philip and Amy Skipper

315
00:23:13.400 --> 00:23:17.680
were the beneficiaries. So when the detective asked Fisher if

316
00:23:17.720 --> 00:23:21.599
he knew anything about this, Fisher claimed that Philip was

317
00:23:21.880 --> 00:23:27.359
actually expecting a larger payout somewhere around one hundred thousand dollars,

318
00:23:27.880 --> 00:23:30.799
and was furious when he found out it was only

319
00:23:30.839 --> 00:23:37.039
a twenty five thousand dollars policy. So that quickly we

320
00:23:37.160 --> 00:23:42.160
have motive. So on August eighth of twenty twenty one, McKee,

321
00:23:42.359 --> 00:23:46.039
along with some state troopers and detectives, they gear up

322
00:23:46.079 --> 00:23:49.880
for this big operation at the Skippers trailer. And at

323
00:23:49.920 --> 00:23:55.400
this time it's been over a year since Janore was murdered,

324
00:23:55.440 --> 00:23:58.960
so it's a pretty tense situation. So they break down

325
00:23:59.000 --> 00:24:02.160
the door and they they find several things. They find

326
00:24:02.160 --> 00:24:05.799
a stashing knives, they find a couple of baseball bats.

327
00:24:05.839 --> 00:24:10.599
They even find some twenty two caliber ammo, and even

328
00:24:10.640 --> 00:24:15.119
a handful of spent shellcasings from a twenty two. Now

329
00:24:15.599 --> 00:24:18.920
that's important because she was stabbed, she was hit with

330
00:24:19.000 --> 00:24:22.400
baseball bats, and she was shot with a twenty two

331
00:24:22.519 --> 00:24:28.000
caliber weapon, and why the hell would you have spent shellcases? Right?

332
00:24:29.599 --> 00:24:33.880
Nobody keeps that, So McKee he doesn't waste any time.

333
00:24:34.039 --> 00:24:37.039
He swoops up the evidence, and then he swoops up

334
00:24:37.240 --> 00:24:41.359
Philip Skipper and he charges him with the first degree

335
00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:48.720
murder of Jenoor Guillery. Then a few days later, he's

336
00:24:49.000 --> 00:24:52.680
hot on the trail of balle Loo, who was hiding

337
00:24:52.720 --> 00:24:56.119
out at a friends trailer. But when the cops come

338
00:24:56.119 --> 00:25:00.880
a knocking, balle Lo isn't exactly playing to go down

339
00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:03.519
without a fight, so he makes a run for it

340
00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:07.880
into the woods. But after about thirty minutes of playing

341
00:25:07.960 --> 00:25:12.799
hide and seek the Tingjibahoa deputies, they unleashed the canines

342
00:25:12.839 --> 00:25:17.160
and balle Loo. He don't like the canines. He doesn't

343
00:25:17.160 --> 00:25:20.480
want any of that. He comes out of hiding and

344
00:25:20.559 --> 00:25:25.400
gets arrested. So throughout this story there's someone I haven't

345
00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:28.640
told you about, and this guy is a real piece

346
00:25:28.640 --> 00:25:32.680
of shit. His name is Johnny Hoet, and Hoit probably

347
00:25:32.759 --> 00:25:35.960
had the worst rap sheet of all of these fools.

348
00:25:36.400 --> 00:25:39.119
At just twenty two years old, he already had aggravated

349
00:25:39.319 --> 00:25:44.480
robbery charges, assault charges, just a rap sheet as long

350
00:25:44.759 --> 00:25:47.799
as my arm, and he had the tough guy look.

351
00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:50.720
His head was shaved almost to his scalp. He had

352
00:25:50.720 --> 00:25:53.400
this real thick go tee. He just looked like the

353
00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:56.200
kind of guy that you're not necessarily going to pick

354
00:25:56.200 --> 00:26:00.960
a fight with. Right, pretty intimidating looking guy. But Hoyt

355
00:26:01.079 --> 00:26:06.039
was not your average scumbag. He was also the mastermind

356
00:26:06.240 --> 00:26:13.480
of a budding skinhead group called the Brotherhood, and alongside

357
00:26:13.559 --> 00:26:18.559
him were his original crew members guess who, Philip Skipper

358
00:26:18.759 --> 00:26:23.799
and John Blello and these guys they weren't just hanging out,

359
00:26:24.039 --> 00:26:27.559
making up their own little club. Right. They had the

360
00:26:27.799 --> 00:26:33.720
letters g fb D tattooed across their back and guess

361
00:26:33.799 --> 00:26:40.440
what that stood for? God forgives, the Brotherhood doesn't. And

362
00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:45.319
according to Donnie Fisher, Hoyt was also involved in the

363
00:26:45.400 --> 00:26:49.680
murder of General or Guillery. So the detective he goes

364
00:26:49.839 --> 00:26:53.279
on the search for Johnny Hoyt and he actually finds

365
00:26:53.359 --> 00:26:57.000
him serving time in a federal prison where he was

366
00:26:57.119 --> 00:27:01.079
placed three months after the murder of Jim Nor for

367
00:27:01.240 --> 00:27:06.400
possessing three sought off shotguns by a felon. Here's what happened.

368
00:27:06.680 --> 00:27:09.839
After all the dust settled in this murtyer and everyone

369
00:27:09.960 --> 00:27:14.440
was interviewed and the pieces were pieced together. Philip Skipper

370
00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:19.200
John Ballelo. They hop into Phillip's pickup truck and they

371
00:27:19.200 --> 00:27:23.039
had to Hold in Louisiana. Now Holding is a small town,

372
00:27:23.160 --> 00:27:27.160
it's about forty miles from Clinton, and they're on a mission.

373
00:27:27.839 --> 00:27:30.799
They're going there to pick up Johnny Hoyt. So they

374
00:27:30.799 --> 00:27:34.759
pick them up and they head back to Clinton and

375
00:27:34.759 --> 00:27:39.160
they're getting drunk, doing shots, they're doing drugs. They're doing

376
00:27:39.200 --> 00:27:42.880
a ton of value actually, and things take kind of

377
00:27:42.880 --> 00:27:45.920
a dark term when balle Loo he just starts firing

378
00:27:45.960 --> 00:27:50.640
a twenty two caliber revolver into the sky and he

379
00:27:50.839 --> 00:27:55.440
turns to Philip and he says, would you like to

380
00:27:55.559 --> 00:28:00.279
kill him? N word? And I'll let you fill that in. So,

381
00:28:00.400 --> 00:28:04.440
once they get back to Skipper's trailer, balle Loo is

382
00:28:04.599 --> 00:28:08.279
so shitfaced he can't hardly get out of the truck.

383
00:28:08.319 --> 00:28:10.400
He steps out of the truck and just busts his

384
00:28:10.480 --> 00:28:15.640
ass and then they go into the trailer. But around

385
00:28:15.839 --> 00:28:19.440
one am, Johnny Hoyt he decides to wake up Ballelo

386
00:28:20.720 --> 00:28:25.880
from his drunken stupor, and he says, it's time for

387
00:28:26.039 --> 00:28:30.720
you to earn that tattoo on your back, So take

388
00:28:30.759 --> 00:28:33.759
your shoes off so you don't leave no footprints, and

389
00:28:33.960 --> 00:28:38.720
let's go. So, with Ballelo leading the charge, they walk

390
00:28:38.839 --> 00:28:41.880
out of the trailer and they walk across that gravel

391
00:28:42.039 --> 00:28:48.079
road and they walk up to Jenoor Guillery's house. So

392
00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:51.799
balle Loo he claims that this was all over an

393
00:28:51.799 --> 00:28:56.000
initiation into the brotherhood, and in his version, it all

394
00:28:56.039 --> 00:29:01.039
went down like this. Lisa, she approaches the side door

395
00:29:01.119 --> 00:29:06.960
of Jenniore's house and y'all, Lisa is Johnny Hoyt's girlfriend,

396
00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:10.480
and she kind of faked that she needed some money,

397
00:29:10.599 --> 00:29:13.880
she needed to buy diapers for her baby, and did

398
00:29:13.960 --> 00:29:18.119
Jenore have any money for diapers? And as Jenniore's talking

399
00:29:18.160 --> 00:29:22.480
to her about this, Philip Skipper, Johnny Hoyt and John

400
00:29:22.519 --> 00:29:25.640
balle Loow they're in the background. They're in the shadows

401
00:29:25.720 --> 00:29:29.759
waiting for their opportunity. Jenoor, she's clad in a long

402
00:29:29.839 --> 00:29:34.319
blue nightgown. She's accompanied by her child, and her child's

403
00:29:34.400 --> 00:29:40.240
name was Cleo. She answers the door. She's talking to Lisa,

404
00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:46.720
and Hoyt jumps into the door and punches Jennore. The dog.

405
00:29:46.920 --> 00:29:51.960
The child then lunges at Hoyt. He's defending his owner

406
00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:56.359
right but balle Loo manages to restrain the dog and

407
00:29:56.400 --> 00:29:58.480
he takes the dog and ties the dog with a

408
00:29:58.559 --> 00:30:03.319
rope nowhere, then takes off running. She's trying to get

409
00:30:03.400 --> 00:30:07.119
to something and she grabs the phone in the kitchen.

410
00:30:07.519 --> 00:30:09.960
She grabs her keys at the same time. She runs

411
00:30:10.000 --> 00:30:12.079
to the front door, and the front door is locked,

412
00:30:12.119 --> 00:30:14.759
and she's fumbling with those keys and just drops the

413
00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:18.119
keys on the ground. She finally goes back to the kitchen.

414
00:30:18.240 --> 00:30:20.839
She tries to pick up the phone. It gets slapped

415
00:30:20.839 --> 00:30:23.519
out of her hand, which is why the busy signal

416
00:30:23.640 --> 00:30:27.319
was being reported by her coworkers. Remember I told you

417
00:30:27.359 --> 00:30:30.599
that at the beginning, and there's a trail of blood.

418
00:30:30.759 --> 00:30:34.160
You can just follow her throughout that house. She gets

419
00:30:34.200 --> 00:30:37.200
to that drawer in the kitchen. She opens the drawer,

420
00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:41.319
she grabs a knife, but Hoyt, he's relentless and she's

421
00:30:41.440 --> 00:30:45.480
just unable to defend herself effectively. She takes off running again.

422
00:30:46.039 --> 00:30:49.200
She retreats to that bedroom, and that was pretty much

423
00:30:49.359 --> 00:30:53.319
her last stand. She gets shot in her left hand

424
00:30:53.559 --> 00:30:57.880
and arm. She continues to fight, but ultimately she was

425
00:30:57.920 --> 00:31:03.039
stabbed multiple times by Lisa, numerous wounds, one of which

426
00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:07.559
pierced her left long and then, as if that weren't enough,

427
00:31:08.319 --> 00:31:11.440
the perpetrators pick up a ceramic lamp and a couple

428
00:31:11.480 --> 00:31:15.599
of baseball bats to ensure she was dead. Balle Loow

429
00:31:16.839 --> 00:31:20.079
was even quoted as saying she fought all the way

430
00:31:20.359 --> 00:31:23.799
to the end. So the four perpetrators at that time,

431
00:31:23.880 --> 00:31:28.359
they looted the home of the jewelry. They take the dog,

432
00:31:28.559 --> 00:31:31.880
they tie it up right outside the door, and they

433
00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:36.039
returned to the trailer. At this point, they get indicted

434
00:31:36.079 --> 00:31:39.920
for first degree murder and a salw other charges. Philip

435
00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:44.160
Skipper was also charged with the repeated aggravated rape of

436
00:31:44.680 --> 00:31:50.400
John Balilo, who they found out he had been raping

437
00:31:51.160 --> 00:31:55.000
after balle Loo had been in his custody for three years.

438
00:31:55.599 --> 00:32:01.200
They also indicted Lisa Hoyt. Now, this involvement in the

439
00:32:01.200 --> 00:32:05.680
brutal martyr of Jenial Gillery surprised even the most hardened

440
00:32:06.000 --> 00:32:11.200
investigators at first, but later after Sheriff Bunch figured her out,

441
00:32:11.440 --> 00:32:16.279
He's like, that girl is absolutely evil. She comes from

442
00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:20.039
an evil family, now McKee, he didn't quit once the

443
00:32:20.160 --> 00:32:24.039
arrest happened. He kept digging, looking for as many details

444
00:32:24.039 --> 00:32:26.960
as possible about these four killers, and he found out

445
00:32:27.039 --> 00:32:31.200
that less than two weeks after Janior Gillery's murder, a

446
00:32:31.279 --> 00:32:34.039
dope dealer in Saint Helena Parrish, a guy with the

447
00:32:34.079 --> 00:32:37.559
habit of flashing wads of cash, he had been shot

448
00:32:37.559 --> 00:32:40.759
in the head on the gravel Road. Someone then set

449
00:32:40.839 --> 00:32:44.359
the dope dealer and his pickup truck on fire, and

450
00:32:44.599 --> 00:32:48.200
just after that murder, Lisa Hoyt told friends that she

451
00:32:48.440 --> 00:32:50.880
was the one who shot the dealer in the head,

452
00:32:51.119 --> 00:32:54.559
and her husband, Johnny Hoyt, he helped burn the body.

453
00:32:54.920 --> 00:32:57.759
He even found out the four of them also dabbled

454
00:32:57.960 --> 00:33:02.240
in grave robbing. They broke into coffins and they would

455
00:33:02.240 --> 00:33:06.240
steal jewelry, watch his gold teeth from the body of

456
00:33:06.400 --> 00:33:10.720
the dead. Balelo even said it was dirty work. They

457
00:33:10.720 --> 00:33:13.960
would pry open the lid of one coffin spot a

458
00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:16.559
nice ring and when they pulled the ring off, the

459
00:33:16.640 --> 00:33:21.119
finger came off with it. What a fucking bunch of

460
00:33:21.160 --> 00:33:25.240
sick people. Lisa even bragged to a friend that an

461
00:33:25.319 --> 00:33:28.920
antique watch she wore came from a grave and the

462
00:33:28.960 --> 00:33:33.039
sheriff said they were taking people's teeth and making necklaces

463
00:33:33.440 --> 00:33:37.920
out of them. Wow. So they're sitting in jail and

464
00:33:38.079 --> 00:33:45.319
something very shocking happens. The charges actually get dropped after

465
00:33:45.400 --> 00:33:49.680
the lab results came back. There were no identifiable fingerprints

466
00:33:49.799 --> 00:33:53.880
at the crime scene. The baseball bat McKeith found at

467
00:33:53.920 --> 00:33:58.240
Philip Skipper's trailer had been outside for a year, so

468
00:33:58.359 --> 00:34:03.000
the rain had washed away any DNA evidence that might

469
00:34:03.039 --> 00:34:07.279
have been used on it. The gun used to shoot

470
00:34:07.400 --> 00:34:10.960
Janoor had been a revolver. There were no shell casings

471
00:34:11.039 --> 00:34:13.800
from the crime scene to compare to those that I

472
00:34:13.920 --> 00:34:18.559
told you McKee had found in Philip Skipper's trailer, so

473
00:34:18.639 --> 00:34:21.519
they just didn't have anything to compare. According to Ballelo,

474
00:34:21.679 --> 00:34:26.000
the gun itself had been broken into pieces and tossed

475
00:34:26.039 --> 00:34:30.760
into the Amy River and Hoyt, Philip and Lisa, they

476
00:34:30.800 --> 00:34:34.239
all refused to talk. They weren't saying anything. Only Ballelo

477
00:34:34.440 --> 00:34:38.599
was saying all this now. The life insurance policy which

478
00:34:38.760 --> 00:34:41.360
did pay out twenty five thousand of Philip and Amy

479
00:34:41.440 --> 00:34:45.519
Skipper three months out after the murder, it was really

480
00:34:45.599 --> 00:34:51.119
just circumstantial evidence. Just because somebody gets life insurance doesn't

481
00:34:51.119 --> 00:34:54.400
mean they killed somebody. Right, the second and third hand

482
00:34:54.440 --> 00:34:57.000
accounts from people who came forward and said they heard

483
00:34:57.119 --> 00:35:01.079
Philip and others admit to killing Janore Guillery, that was

484
00:35:01.119 --> 00:35:04.800
all considered hearsay in court. The only thing they had

485
00:35:04.960 --> 00:35:09.880
was John Ballelow's statement, and that's not you know what

486
00:35:09.880 --> 00:35:12.800
I mean? Is he believable? I mean, this guy's got

487
00:35:13.039 --> 00:35:17.119
kind of a record. He's not exactly someone that a

488
00:35:17.280 --> 00:35:21.920
jury would believe in a lot of cases. But the

489
00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:25.760
cops they want to take it to trial. The DA

490
00:35:25.840 --> 00:35:30.079
he didn't. He didn't think there was enough there. So

491
00:35:30.480 --> 00:35:34.199
in January of two thousand and two, four months after

492
00:35:34.280 --> 00:35:39.920
their rest guess what. All the charges get dropped, except

493
00:35:40.039 --> 00:35:45.000
for balle Loo because he had confessed during telling the

494
00:35:45.039 --> 00:35:49.960
police about this whole scenario, he gets left in jail. Now,

495
00:35:50.119 --> 00:35:54.039
later that year, voters in East Feliciana their outrage over

496
00:35:54.079 --> 00:35:58.440
this and they end up voting the da out of

497
00:35:58.440 --> 00:36:02.320
office and put in a year aggressive new district attorney

498
00:36:02.360 --> 00:36:06.039
who was still the district attorney incidentally in East Feliciana parish.

499
00:36:06.119 --> 00:36:09.400
His name was Sam d'aquilla, and I've actually met him,

500
00:36:09.519 --> 00:36:15.079
he's been in the studio now. Before Daquilla's election, Sheriff

501
00:36:15.360 --> 00:36:19.559
Bunch extracted a promise from the aspiring district attorney that

502
00:36:19.639 --> 00:36:22.000
if he got elected, he would take a fresh look

503
00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:26.840
at the Guillery case. And he also lobbied Dquilla pretty hard.

504
00:36:26.920 --> 00:36:30.760
He wanted the case prosecuted, and Daquilla wanted it prosecuted

505
00:36:30.960 --> 00:36:35.079
as well. McKee said that Daquilla was on board from

506
00:36:35.119 --> 00:36:39.239
the get go. Now, unlike other prosecutors, Daquilla wasn't afraid

507
00:36:39.360 --> 00:36:42.280
to take a chance, and as soon as he took office,

508
00:36:42.599 --> 00:36:46.960
he reopened that Guillery case. Although he knew the case

509
00:36:47.039 --> 00:36:51.320
had problems, he wanted a jury to decide it. So

510
00:36:51.519 --> 00:36:57.000
Daquilla charges all four with second degree murder. It was

511
00:36:57.119 --> 00:37:01.519
a simpler charge to prove and less cause to prosecute

512
00:37:01.559 --> 00:37:04.800
the first degree murder. The charge didn't allow for the

513
00:37:04.920 --> 00:37:09.320
death penalty, but in Louisiana, second degree murder does carry

514
00:37:09.480 --> 00:37:14.199
a mandatory life sentence, and life means life in Louisiana.

515
00:37:14.280 --> 00:37:17.719
So he then offers a deal to John Ballelo. He

516
00:37:17.760 --> 00:37:20.280
had been in jail since his arrest in August of

517
00:37:20.320 --> 00:37:23.599
two thousand and one, and he basically told balle Loo, look,

518
00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:28.159
if you'll testify against the other three, Daquila would let

519
00:37:28.239 --> 00:37:31.400
him plead guilty as a juvenile and recommend a sentence

520
00:37:31.440 --> 00:37:34.159
of juvenile life, which would get him out of jail

521
00:37:34.280 --> 00:37:37.599
on his twenty first birthday. And it's important to note

522
00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:43.039
without Ballelo's testimony, Daquilla has nothing. He has nothing. That's

523
00:37:43.079 --> 00:37:46.079
the only person that witnessed any of this right. So

524
00:37:46.119 --> 00:37:48.320
he had to cut a deal with the devil, basically,

525
00:37:48.639 --> 00:37:50.840
and he said, we tried to make the best case

526
00:37:51.039 --> 00:37:53.639
that we could, and in July two thousand and four,

527
00:37:53.719 --> 00:37:58.199
in East Feliciana jury they find Philip Skipper guilty of

528
00:37:58.360 --> 00:38:02.440
second degree murder Johnny Hoyd. He then goes on trial

529
00:38:02.480 --> 00:38:04.880
in February of two thousand and five, and guess what,

530
00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:09.360
He's also found guilty of second degree murder and both

531
00:38:09.360 --> 00:38:16.239
were sentenced to life in prison. In Bloody Angla, now

532
00:38:16.280 --> 00:38:20.039
Lisa Hoyd, she pleads guilty to manslaughter and she gets

533
00:38:20.239 --> 00:38:24.679
sentenced to the maximum of manslaughter which is forty years

534
00:38:24.719 --> 00:38:29.079
in prison. And in exchange for his testimony, Ballele was

535
00:38:29.119 --> 00:38:33.039
prosecuted as a juvenile. He pled guilty to second degree

536
00:38:33.119 --> 00:38:36.519
murder was sentenced to What's none as juvenile life. No

537
00:38:36.760 --> 00:38:41.280
charges were ever filed against Amy Skipper. Both Don McKee

538
00:38:41.320 --> 00:38:44.480
and Sam Daquilla were convinced that she didn't play any

539
00:38:44.519 --> 00:38:49.480
part in Jenore Guillory's murder. When asked what he thinks

540
00:38:49.480 --> 00:38:54.960
of them, meaning Johnny and Lisa and Philip, Sam Dequilla

541
00:38:55.079 --> 00:38:59.360
shook his head and said, those are some evil people

542
00:39:00.320 --> 00:39:05.679
and that is the tragic story of miss Jenor Guillery

543
00:39:06.239 --> 00:39:11.960
and the incarceration and Bloody Andngla of those who killed her.

544
