KLFY Newsroom - UPDATE: BALDWIN, La. (KLFY)- On Dec. 18, 2016, 45-year-old Reynell Lockett Richard's body was found near a Hwy. 90 intersection in Baldwin.
Today, the St. Mary Parish Sheriff's Office has identified her estranged husband, Russell Anthony Richard, 51, as a person of interest.
"We are looking at Richard as a person of interest in this death investigation," St. Mary Parish Sheriff's Office spokesman Traci Landry told KLFY this afternoon. "He's been ruled as a possible witness."
Detectives are seeking Richard for questioning, Landry said.
Lockett Richard's body was discovered US Highway 90 overpass and the Baldwin Cut in Baldwin. Officials have not released the cause of death, but her family claims the was found strangled.
Her adult children plan to hold a vigil tonight at Lockett Richard' church in Baldwin.

Thoughts? I should note I put 2017 in the the thread title since that's the year Richard became a person of interest. Once again Richard is only wanted as a person of interest and not charged in Reynell Lockett's murder. However, imo, he isn't helping matters by disappearing. I am assuming Richard is still not located as of this posting date (1/29/2018), since the above is a relatively recent articles. But it's always good to call the information lines in the article to double check if you think you know a man resembling Richard (and of course give in a tip if it's confirmed he's still not located).
