Man convicted on two counts of murder after 2022 Brusly stabbings
BRUSLY - A man was convicted on two counts of second-degree murder after a stabbing in 2022, according to the 18th Judicial District Attorney.
Kevin Craig, 61, was arrested after a March 27 double-murder of Myeisha Adams and RL Washington. According to a release from District Attorney Tony Clayton, Craig was having an affair with Adams and Craig had a child with her. Craig dropped her off at the home of Washington. Around midnight, Craig entered Washington's residence without authorization and tried to forcibly drag Adams out of the house.
A friend of Washington discovered his body with six stab wounds in his home the next day. The body of Adams was found in a field off Louisiana Highway 1 in the area. Adams had been stabbed thirteen times, and Craig was arrested that morning.
Officers later uncovered video footage of Craig with a large knife in his hand at about 1 a.m. the morning of the murders. He was also seen leaving Washington’s home with Adams. Craig’s mobile phone was found at the scene where Adams body was found.
