BATON ROUGE — A man accused of killing his father and daughter before shooting himself in March was transferred into police custody after being hospitalized.

Brent DeLoach, 63, was booked by the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office Tuesday night after being arrested on two counts of first-degree murder. He is being held without bond.

WBRZ reported that deputies were called to a Shenandoah home shortly before 2 p.m. on March 15. Arrest records said DeLoach originally reported that a man he didn’t know had come into the house and shot him and his 30-year-old daughter Christina DeLoach — who was found dead.

Brent DeLoach, who had been shot in the abdomen, was armed when deputies arrived. He said he shot back at the assailant. Paramedics then took DeLoach to a hospital where he was rushed into surgery, according to sheriff’s records.

Brent DeLoach's father, 84-year-old Sidney DeLoach, was also found dead with multiple bullet wounds.

Arrest records said the home — which showed no evidence of a break-in — had a surveillance camera at the front door. The recording showed Christina DeLoach going into the house, but leaving moments later with Brent DeLoach behind her. They argued in the driveway and then went back inside. The video showed deputies arriving a short time later.

Investigators said the evidence indicated that Brent DeLoach shot his father and then shot his daughter. They also believe he shot himself.

Brent DeLoach’s wounds to the upper abdomen were not life-threatening but was kept in the hospital until he was booked by deputies Tuesday.

Kathy King contacted 2 On Your Side in April over a security light charge that she'd been fighting since 2021. That problem is finally a thing of the past.

"I finally have a zero balance and I'm relieved after two and a half years," King said.

She doesn't owe Entergy anything. The $124.81 charge that had been accruing no longer shows up on her bill. The actual charge was only about $40 but over time late fees added up.

"Several people told me that they just would have paid the bill but I wasn't going to do that because for me it was the principle of the matter," King said.

The charge surrounds a security light on her property that hasn't worked since 2021. King canceled the service after her request for repairs went unanswered, yet she continued to be charged. Each month, King had been paying her Entergy bill on time but first subtracted the security light charges and the late fees.

"I didn't owe that money I didn't feel, so I decided I was just going to stick it out until I got satisfaction which meant that I didn't have to pay that bill," she said.

Entergy took a closer look at the charges and after three weeks removed them.

"I'm relieved just to not have to deal with this anymore, it hasn't been fun I haven't enjoyed it," King said.

The non-working light is still attached to the pole facing King's yard. It serves as a reminder about the journey and how long it took to get there.

BATON ROUGE — West Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Deputy Donald Dawsey was arrested and put on administrative leave in April after his ex-wife Kim Dawsey accused him of stalking. The two, now deep into a contentious custody battle, were in court yesterday for Kim to get a protective order.

Donald had been recording video outside his ex-wife's business from a camera placed in the woods. Kim reported the video to the East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office when she found the camera. Donald was arrested for stalking by EBRSO in April.

Later, she also found a camera mount in between two sheds on the Denham Springs property they once lived on together. That was reported to the Livingston Sheriff's Office.

Judge Kyle Russ denied the order, saying although he disagrees with Donalds' actions, he did not break the law, raising some interesting legal questions.

"It's very, very fact sensitive and it's also dependent on my motive," said LSU law professor Ken Levy.

Levy says it is perfectly legal to film someone from private property.

"For example, I can stand on my property and look around my neighborhood with binoculars. I can stare at one house with binoculars. I can use my camera. But if my neighbor sees this and is bothered by it and asks me to stop and I continue doing it, then it might not be allowed," Levy said.

According to Donald, he installed the camera to prove that his ex-wife did not need the spousal support Kim petitioned him for.

"When it comes to the stalking law it all depends on is this a pattern, and would it cause a reasonable person alarm, distress or fear?" Levy added.

Although Kim testified that she was scared for her safety, Russ ruled Donald's' actions did not meet those requirements.

Dawsey was placed on administrative leave, but is now back at work. The West Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office says there is still an internal affairs investigation pending.
