Especially troubling in the Baton Rouge case is the tortured course of the separate investigations into what authorities now believe are related murders.
The capital city's serial killer task force, which formed July 22 after three cases were linked by DNA, focused primarily on DNA-related cases and resisted offers of free help from outside serial killer experts such as Keppel and Peter Scharf, a criminologist at the University of New Orleans.

BATON ROUGE -- Citing the needs of the serial killer investigation, the State Police crime lab obtained an extra $462,000 from legislators Tuesday for equipment and supplies to help speed up the processing of a backlog of pending DNA tests.

Critics say the serial killer's DNA could be sitting on a shelf in the crime lab as evidence that has yet to be tested in a rape or violent assault investigation.
