On March 18, 2017, 57-year-old Catherine Caufield was found dead on Brutus Street in New Orleans East, one of three people killed in the same incident. The other victims were 66-year-old Clifton Norbert Jr. and 58-year-old Joseph Davis. The deaths were described as a violent triple homicide that deeply affected the local community.

Catherine was a lifelong New Orleans resident, mother of Aleshia Nicole Goodlow-Shakir and grandmother to Kaysaan and Diyari. She attended Street Academy and Stevenson’s Academy of Hair Design; family and friends remembered her as caring and devoted.

The New Orleans Police Department investigated but has not identified a motive or made any arrests, and the case has gone cold. If anyone knew Catherine, the other victims, or has information about that night on Brutus Street, please come forward with what can help bring answers.
