A suicide note in the pocket of a man who jumped off the Omni Royal Orleans Hotel late Tuesday led police to the grisly scene of his girlfriend’s murder, where they found her charred head in a pot on the stove, her legs and feet baked in the oven and the rest of her dismembered body in trash bag in the refrigerator, according to police and the couple’s landlord.

The man, Zackery Bowen, a tall man in his mid 20s with long blond hair, claimed in the note to have killed his girlfriend, Adrian “Addie” Hall, on Oct. 5, according to police. Hall was also in her mid 20s.

In the five-page note, Bowen claimed he strangled Hall in the bathtub, then dismembered her body before taking it in pieces to the kitchen, police said. An autopsy conducted today shows that Hall was in fact manually strangled, police said. It also appears that Hall’s body was cut up after she died, police said.

“He appeared to clean up the bathroom a lot after he did it,” one officer said

Maybe he was remembering what the Mayor said, abut this being a chocolate city.

Doomed couple stuck it out in an abandoned French Quarter

I would think the hands (being lean, oft-used muslces) should not be broiled, as they would be tough.

Sorry. I meant boiled. Bar-B-Que is OK too. The head should definitely be baked.

From the article.... "As he picked up limbs along the sidewalk,..."


I am so going to hell.

"you'd just make pierogies out of her, no doubt...."

Only if she was a couch potatoe.

A city I've always wanted to visit.

Sounds like a place where you could hide in plain sight. Not that I need to, but it is appealing.

"Neither the perp nor the victim were New Orleans natives. Both moved there last year. I'd love to hear y'all argue that they were both normal until New Orleans screwed them up, though.

They were probably Leftist moonbats. And you CAN argue that Leftist moonbat activism can screw up peoples minds. They were probably part of that Cindy Shehan crowd that stayed in N.O. because Katrina aid donations were easy to scam over the internet.

All one needed is a sign that said " clinic" and and empty building to hang it on, and be linked to Micheal Moores web site. Easy money. But, living easy and excessive drug use has a price.

Maybe he killed hisself when he realized that he'd burned his dinner.

Maybe he killed hisself when he realized that he'd burned his dinner.

That very well could be. Or he allowed the meat to spoil before cooking it. Who knows? Amateur cooks are an unpredictable, and very dangerous, lot.

Hey we were in Plantersville last Saturday. Well, out in the piney woods nearby at the Renaissance Festival and it was wonderful. What you want to bet the Houston "visitors" won't swarm up there that weekend - the last weekend of the Festival coincidentally.

[Xenalyte]

You were at the Festival and you didn't come see me?

I am crushed and deeply saddened. ;)

[daybreakcoming]

I bet we did see you! We were agape at the costuming and we did a lot of people watching. (our first time) But wish I had known you were there - my girls would have been so impressed that I knew one of the revelers. :o)

We do plan on going back - will FReepmail you and find out where you hang out.

"To me, the guy on the right looks like the creepy, dangerous one."

So, did the fuzz interview the ZZTop dude? What'd he have to say?

OK, I listened again and a reporter asked the Police deputy about the terrorist threats to NFL stadiums. He answers, "They wouldn't dare go into Saints stadium". The first time I heard it, I thought he said Shea stadium! That Cajun dialect caught me off guard! Sorry for the confusion!!
