Carolyn Breaux Nichols was 26 when she was found dead in July 1997 near the St. Landry Parish Airport in Opelousas, Louisiana. Her body was discovered along with that of Tamika Blake Wilson after a passer-by came upon the scene, prompting a homicide investigation.

On November 4, 1997, investigators arrested John Peter Malveaux after finding him sleeping in a car that belonged to another missing woman. During questioning he was identified as a suspect in the killings of Nichols and Wilson and other violent offenses. Malveaux later admitted responsibility for Nichols’s murder and for three other women, pleaded guilty in St. Landry Parish court, and received three life sentences without the possibility of parole.

Does anyone have information about Carolyn’s last known movements or who she was with in the days before July 1997?
