Shocking details have emerged about Kaegan Jude Solet, the person of interest in a series of stabbings in Houma , Louisiana, that left four people dead and a juvenile critically injured on Saturday, September 12. A search is underway to apprehend him.
The individual was flown by Acadian Ambulance Service Air Med to an out-of-area hospital. They remain in critical condition. At least four victims were pronounced dead. Solet has been arrested several times in the past decade for a series of stabbings, one of them fatal. However, he has not been convicted in any of those cases. Police arrested him following an anonymous tip. He was found hiding inside a shed behind a mobile home, a block west of Saturday’s deadly crime scene. She alleged that a man entered her room and attacked her with a wine bottle, and then stabbed her several times. Boudreaux initially claimed that her boyfriend William Naquin was the one who had attacked her, but later went on to accuse Solet, who claimed that he was homeless at the time. Prosecutors pointed to security camera footage and Solet’s DNA being found inside as evidence that he had carried out the attack. Solet was arrested and charged in the attempted murder.
Police said that deputies initially responded to the 200 block of Ashland Drive, where they found a juvenile suffering from apparent stab wounds. Solet was charged in January 2019 with the murder of Kemple Paul Scott Lovell, a homeless man found dead with several stab wounds in Houma, police said, per the New York Post. In December 2019, Solet was charged with attempted second-degree murder for the violent attack of a woman found lying in a pool of blood inside the Red Carpet Inn in Houma. However, he was found not guilty of the attack in November 2023.
Amid the investigation , deputies found several deceased victims inside nearby homes, police said. 59-year-old Cindy Boudreaux was discovered inside a room of the motel gasping, “don’t let me die,” as paramedics tended to her, per the Houma Courier. He said that he had been inside the room with Boudreaux the previous night but had been sleeping on the streets the day she was attacked.
