Sullivan Lane Jr., 52, was found dead inside his Castle Kirk Drive home in Baton Rouge on March 12, 2020. First responders discovered multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene in the afternoon in the neighborhood between Highland and Perkins Road.

Baton Rouge Police say a domestic dispute between Lane and his 39-year-old wife, Lindy Lane, escalated from a verbal argument to a physical confrontation. According to the police affidavit, Lindy Lane armed herself with a .40 caliber handgun and told investigators she intended to strike her husband with it. She reported the gun discharged as she tried to hit him, striking him once, and that after he fell she stumbled and the firearm fired several more times, causing the fatal wounds.

Lindy Lane was arrested and booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison and charged with one count of manslaughter in connection with Sullivan Lane Jr.’s death. Is there anyone who knew the Lanes or witnessed the neighborhood incident who can provide more detail about what happened that afternoon?
