Law enforcement in southeast Louisiana report a big break in a 33-year-old missing persons cold case. With help from the LSU FACES lab and DNA technology authorities have identified human remains found near Slidell by a hunter back in 1989 as those of a Lafourche Parish woman, Paula Boudreaux, who vanished in 1986.
Lafourche Parish Sheriff Craig Webre says what was a missing persons case is now much more.
“From that point forward, we are taking the position that – until we discover otherwise – foul play or perhaps homicide was involved,” said Webre.
