He was in prison from 2000-2008 (dunno the exact months) for the sexual assault. He got out two years early for good behavior. Pate would have been around the time of the assault he was prosecuted for. He was about 21 when entered prison and he's been out for four years. Plenty of free time to commit more crimes.
Someone on Tiger Droppings mentioned (before today) Pate and BL being a suspect back then. That's a good board to read because of all the locals who ae turning out to be right. Adam4LSU (the one with the SIL who was seeing BL) said more murders will be pinned on BL. We shall see. I think this is going to turn into a major serial killer case.
Some info mentioning Pate here (the women mentioned as being killed by the same person ended up being victims of Baton Rouge serial killer, Derick (sp) Lee):
Slaying similarities examined
Five Acadiana murders still open
By KEVIN BLANCHARD and MELISSA MOORE
Acadiana bureau
The Baton Rouge Advocate
LAFAYETTE -- Acadiana-area law enforcement investigators have at least
five open cases of women found dead since 1994, but they don't think
any of them are related to the serial killings in Baton Rouge and
Lafayette.
DNA evidence has attributed the deaths of four women -- three in Baton
Rouge -- to the same killer.
Monday's revelation that the same person killed 23-year-old Trineishia
Dené Colomb of Lafayette has expanded the scope of the investigation
to Acadiana.
Colomb was found beaten to death on Nov. 24 in Scott.
A man said he saw a white truck -- similar in description to the truck
seen in the Baton Rouge killings -- parked behind Colomb's abandoned
car near Grand Coteau.
DNA evidence taken from the body matched the other serial killings,
Lt. Craig Stansbury said.
In the past 12 years, dozens of women have been killed in the Baton
Rouge area, their slayings still unsolved. Baton Rouge authorities
have said some of those cases may be related, though any connection
with the confirmed serial killer cases can't be made without a DNA
match.
The first three serial killer victims were linked by DNA this summer,
setting Baton Rouge residents on edge and leading to the creation of a
task force that is still trying to solve the crimes.
Gina Wilson Green, 41, was found strangled in her home Sept. 24, 2001.
Charlotte Murray Pace, 22, was found stabbed to death in her home May
31. Pam Kinamore, 44, was abducted from her home July 12. Her throat
was cut and her body dumped at the Whiskey Bay exit off Interstate 10.
All had been sexually assaulted.
Colomb's slaying also seems to have much in common with a killing in
Baton Rouge that has not been tied to the serial killer.
East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Lt. Darrell O'Neal said
investigators are aware of the similarities between Colomb's slaying
and Christine Moore's disappearance and killing in May.
"At this time there has been no evidentiary connection" between the
two crimes, he said.
Moore, an LSU graduate student, was last seen on May 23.
Her abandoned car was found days later and her skeletal remains were
found June 16. Her body had been left in a wooded area next to a River
Road church near the East Baton Rouge and Iberville parish lines.
East Baton Rouge Parish Coroner Dr. Louis Cataldie said Moore appears
to have died from a blow to the head.
The autopsy found a "line fracture" of the skull. Cataldie said that
force could have come from being hit with a blunt object or a fist, or
from being slammed against a wall.
The finding does not rule out the possibility of other injuries that
would not be detectable by examining her bones, he said. Lafayette
Parish Sheriff's spokesman Craig Stansbury said Thursday that his
department has used DNA evidence to eliminate one case from the serial
killer file.
In January 2001, 29-year-old Cennea Guidry was found dead in a ditch
near her suburban Lafayette home. She'd been beaten to death. The case
remains open.
A sample of DNA evidence from the scene did not match DNA evidence
from the serial killings, Stansbury said.
