Just me typing out loud...here goes.
For me, the only thing we have linking DTL as the serial killer is his DNA.
Let's consider this. From what I can tell about Mr. Gillis, he appears to be a drama queen, your typical psycho, is willing to take credit for his crimes and seemed to enjoy sadistic behavior.
Ann Bryan, a KNOWN victim, was murdered March 21st, 1995.
She was murdered in her home and her body was left there. She was stabbed 42 times and suspect says he stabbed her in the throat to stop her screaming. She was 82 . She was a resident at St. James Place, an up scale retirement home on Lee Drive which was approximately 1.2 miles from suspects home. No signs of forced entry.
Eugenie Boisfontaine, 34
(I include her because she was also abducted while jogging and her body was also foudn in a Bayou, this time in Manchac in Iberville Parish). She had a skull fracture but was too badly decomposed for DNA. She disappeared June 14th, 1997. Her home was approximately 2.1 miles from Mr. Gillis.
Katherine Hall's body was found in JANUARY 1999.
She was a KNOWN victim of Mr. Gillis. Her body was found off of Poujeaux Road. She was 30.
Hardee Schmidt, a KNOWN victim, was abducted WHILE JOGGING in Pollard Estates on MAY 30th, 1999.
She was strangled. Her body was found along Hwy 61 in a Bayou. Her abduction site is between 2 to 3 miles from where Mr. Gillis lived. She was 52.
Lillian Robinson, a KNOWN victim, was last seen JANURY 9th, 2000.
Her body was found at the Whiskey Bay and Butte La Rose Bridge in the Atchafalaya Basin. She was 53.
Gina Green, a DTL/SK victim, was murdered September 24th, 2001.
She was murdered in her own home. Reports are that she was strangled and beaten. It has also been reported that her body was posed, but this is not verified. It was also reported that suspect left the imprint of a ring he wore from the beating. Just FYI her house is approximately 2.1 miles from Mr. Gillis.
Geralyn Barr DeSoto , age 21, was murdered on January 14th, 2002
shortly after leaving LSU campus. She had been stabbed and her throat had been cut. She was killed between noon and 2:00 pm at her home. At the time it was said that "DNA was not taken because she had been redressed." but ironically after DTL's arrest DNA magically turned up. LSU campus is approximately 2.1 miles from Mr. Gillis home.
Christine Moore, (I am including her because she was abducted while jogging) was murdered May 24th, 2002.
Her body was later found dumped along River Road behind a church. She was 23. Cause of death was determined to be blow to the head, but too decomposed to tell much else.
Charlotte Murray Pace , age 22, was murdered May 31st, 2002 in her own home.
She was stabbed and her thoat cut. She was able to fight her attacker with a vengence. (Could this because the perp only weighed 125 pounds?) Her home is 2.1 miles from Mr. Gillis, plus she used to live just up the street from Gina, who lived just up the street from Eugenie. Lots of people close to the investigation of Murray's death has said her throat was cut to stop her screams.
Pam Kinamore , age 44, was abducted July 12th, 2002.
She was abducted from her home. Her body was found four days later off I-10 Exit at Whiskey Bay. ( Just up the road from Lillian's body dump site. She had been stabbed and her throat cut. Pam had visited the LSU campus the week prior to her murder. And a truck driver says he saw a white man in a white truck with nude female pull off whiskey bay exit the night/ early next morning of her abduction. Under hypnosis he says the driver had blonde/red arm/leg hair (Mr. Gillis appears to have such).
Trineisha Dene Colomb, age 23, was murdered November 21st, 2002.
She was most likely abducted while visiting her mothers grave in Grand Coteau. Witnesses say they saw a white man in a white truck near the abduction and dumping locations.She died from a blow to the head.
Carrie Lynn Yoder , age 26, was abducted March 3rd, 2003
She was reported missing from her home. Her body was found in Whiskey Bay. (near Pam and up the road from Lillian).Cause of death listed as asphyxiation. She had also been beaten and sexually assaulted. She lived 2.1 miles from Mr. Gillis and the grocery store she had just visited prior to her abduction was just up the block from Mr. Gillis' home. Also, even though police had staked out Whiskey Bay and had already searched it, they did not turn up Carrie's body. However, a week later, a fisherman found her in Whiskey Bay. Where was Carrie's body all that time? We know Mr. Gillis tended to drive around with his victim's in his trunk. Where did DTL keep Carrie? For that matter, where did DTL take Carrie and Pam after he abducted them, but before he killed them?
Mona L. Burt, age 35, is murdered March 11, 2003 in Hammond, LA in her own home.
She was found stabbed and her throat slashed in her home at 109 Rosewood Circle. She was found by her roommate at 11:00 pm
Johnnie Mae Williams, October 11th, 2003.
Found near Pride Port Hudson Road, badly decomposed. Mr. Gillis says he had her in his trunk for a while. Was she in there alive or dead?
Donna Bennett Johnston , February 27th, 2004 .
Her body was dumped on Ben Hur Road, which is just up the street from Mr. Gillis' home.
Plus, add to this the fact that from Gina's murder until Carrie's murder I have a difficult time trying to find any other murders that fit this guy's MO, i.e. stabbing, prostitutes and strangulation. But after Carrie, we know of TWO KNOWN victims, one in October 2003 and one in February of 2004, just four months apart. There was four months between Gina and Geralyn, There were four months between Geralyn and Murray. There was 1 1/2 months between Geralyn and Pam. There was four months between Pam to Dene. There was four months from Dene to Carrie.
I'm just saying that these similarities are too in your face to completely ignore. He was a white man with a white truck who had no clear cut choice of victims. He murdered black and white or all ages. He murdered some in their homes and some while jogging out in the open. He left their bodies in their home or he dumped them in a bayou or Whiskey Bay. He liked to use a knife and he liked to cut throats. He also strangled. He appears to have a comfort zone that the SK victims just happened to live in. He also apepars to have a comfort zone of dumping bodies that the SK just happened to dump in. He also appears to have NO KNOWN VICTIMS during the time the Serial Killings attributed to DTL were being committed.
Hmmm, is all I can say. And I will continue to search.
