Terry Anthony Black Boyd, 35, was fatally shot inside a Baton Rouge residence on October 21, 2009. Investigators treated the killing as targeted rather than random, and the case developed into an alleged murder-for-hire plot tied to a personal dispute between Boyd and another man.

Three people were arrested: Michael Marlo Mike Louding, then a juvenile; Adrian Pittman; and rapper Torrence Lil Boosie Hatch. Prosecutors said Hatch hired Louding to carry out the shooting and Pittman acted as the getaway driver. Pittman later pleaded guilty to a lesser manslaughter charge and cooperated with prosecutors. Louding’s alleged confession—central but disputed—was a key piece of evidence at the trials.

Hatch was tried on first-degree murder charges but was acquitted. Louding was tried for first-degree murder after challenges to suppress his statements failed and the prosecution described the shooting as having been fired from outside the residence. Are there readers who remember Terry Boyd or have information about that night?
