Terrebonne Parish authorities have identified a body found in the water in Cocodrie but have not yet released the identity, pending family notification.

Sheriff Jerry Larpenter said that at approximately 4:45 p.m. Thursday a call was received from a fisherman in the area of the 7800 block of La Highway 56 in reference to a body found floating in the waterway.


Deputies and detectives arrived and confirmed the report and removed the body from the water.

Two tattoos – KKLS and “Tammy Sweet Lips” – were on the body.

TPSO received several leads and are investigating. An autopsy is scheduled for Friday.


The official classification is “suspicious” pending further information.

Larpenter asked that anyone with any information, please contact Crimestoppers for a potential reward at 1-800-743-7433 or TPSO at 876-2500.
