Two women were killed last week in domestic incidents in the Tri-parish area.

Stanley Lee Guidroz, 52, 2621 Madge St., Houma, admitted to Terrebonne Parish authorities that he murdered his wife last Wednesday before he drove to Zachary with her dead body in the backseat, TPSO Major Malcolm Wolfe said.


Pepettra Guidroz, 47, was stabbed multiple times and died as a result of wounds to her neck and chest, according to an autopsy performed by Dr. Charles Ledoux Jr. on Thursday evening, Wolfe said.


The Associated Press reported that Guidroz admitted to Zachary authorities that he killed his wife near a Burger King and drove around for hours before turning himself in.

Guidroz appeared in court for his magistrate hearing Friday morning and now remains in the Terrebonne Parish jail on a $1,000,000 bond. It is unclear whether he had an attorney, Wolfe said.


Tacoma Police (Wash.) authorities said Monday that Guidroz remains a person of interest in a previously cold case concerning disappearance of his son from a Tacoma park in 1983.

Pepettra Guidroz’s daughter, Fallon Bentley, told the Associated Press her mother knew Stanley was on drugs, “but she accepted that and told him just to make sure he paid the house bills first.”

And last Tuesday, the Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office announced they had arrested a Thibodaux man who allegedly shot his ex-girlfriend and left her body, partially nude, in a Thibodaux ditch.

Lafourche detectives worked to obtain a search warrant for Darrel Ansardi, 52, 179 John Edward Lane. Deputies were already on scene at his house when Ansardi pulled onto his street, saw the detectives and turned the car around, LPSO Sgt. Lesley Hill said.

A man who was searching for a spot to crawfish found the body Sherry Gautreaux, 42, along La. Highway 309 in Thibodaux, and he contacted Terrebonne Parish Sheriff’s Office, Hill said.

Ansardi was booked into the Lafourche Parish Detention Center as a fugitive of Terrebonne Parish and was later transferred to the Terrebonne Parish Jail.
