Before he turned killer, Dominique had already had previous run-ins with the law. He was accused of committing two rapes, in 1993 and 1996, per WAFB. He spent a short time in jail but was never prosecuted, so that was the end of it. He didn’t earn the “Bayou Strangler” moniker until he began his murder spree. So, just how many people would fall victim to him?

In 2006, he confessed to killing 23 men, and indeed, during his streak, the bodies of 23 men were discovered. But evidently, DNA connected him to only eight victims, so he was only prosecuted and convicted for eight murders (via Investigation Discovery). He is currently serving eight life sentences for his crimes. Though he readily admitted and confessed to nearly two dozen murders, he’s only serving eight live sentences because the three other parishes in which Dominique committed crimes have not charged or indicted him (per The New York Times).
