A 59-year-old Thibodaux man was arrested by the Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office this week, accused of raping an elderly woman.

On Dec. 22, 2017, LPSO detectives opened an investigation in reference to Michael Adams, 59, of Thibodaux.

Investigators learned through investigation that Adams allegedly committed a sexual battery on an elderly woman – both on Nov. 3 and then again on Dec. 21.
