Two Men Hired by Louisiana Millionaire to Abduct Estranged Wife Drown While Trying to Evade Police



Two men who were hired by Louisiana millionaire Lawrence Michael Handley to kidnap his estranged wife drowned while trying to evade police.

Handley pleaded guilty on Monday to two counts of second-degree kidnapping and one count of attempted second-degree kidnapping after authorities said he orchestrated the abduction of his estranged wife, according to a report by USA Today.

The plot went awry when Handley’s two hired kidnappers, Sylvester Bracey and Arsenio Haynes, ended up on a dead-end road, got their van struck in a swampy area, and jumped into the Intracoastal Canal near Baton Rouge, where they drowned, trying to escape police.

The 53-year-old millionaire now faces up to 35 years. Officials said Handley hired kidnappers in August 2017 to abduct his estranged wife from their home in Lafayette, Louisiana.

A few months before hiring the kidnappers, Handley filed for divorce, alleging that his wife attacked or threatened him, and hired a hitman to kill him.

Meanwhile, Handley’s wife alleged that her husband tried to track her phone, access her email, and install spyware on her computer. Handley also allegedly sent his wife threatening texts before the abduction.

Multiple restraining orders were also filed in 2017, according to court records.

On August 6, 2017, Handley’s hired kidnappers — both 27 years old — who went to the couples’ home, and forced their way inside with handguns.

According to a court document, “the kidnappers handcuffed [Handley’s wife] placed a bag over her head and forcibly removed her from the home,” and then proceeded to threaten, torture, and abuse her while driving toward Baton Rouge.

But then, a major traffic jam incentivized Bracey and Haynes to drive on the shoulder of the road in an attempt to avoid traffic, causing their vehicle to be spotted be an off-duty sheriff’s deputy.

“The deputy followed the van until it reached a highway. Instead of turning left, where they could have taken a number of routes, the two men turned right onto a dead-end road,” reports USA Today.

The kidnappers’ van got stuck in a swampy area, so they fled into the nearby woods, and jumped into the canal, where their bodies were found less than a day later.

A gun — which authorities believe belonged to one of the kidnappers — was also reportedly found inside a nearby pipe. Handley’s wife was also found by deputies in the back of the van.

Five days later, Handley — who tried to charter a plane — was caught by police at a hotel.

According to the district attorney’s office, Lafayette Police Department Detective Jared Istre found video of Handley planning his wife’s abduction, as well as checklists Handley made.

Handley reportedly found success early in the technology industry — helping launch companies that sold vitamins, energy supplements, and calcium creams — and became a millionaire by the age of 30.

Would have been easier to give her half!

Two people died as a result of his plot so shouldn’t he also face 2 charges of murder?

Keystone kidnappers?

Osky

what happened to the wife?? is she ok?

Bwhahahahhaha!

No sh*t. Driving down the shoulder to get around a traffic jam is a great idea when you have a kidnap victim in your van. What could go wrong?

They drown trying to get away from police. This sounds like the old Louisiana. Lots of people died running from police.

call their death pennance for all the crimes they undoubtedly committed and were never charged with

Huge numbers of blacks can't swim , I use to own a Jet-Ski rental in Biloxi , lots of blacks came over from New Orleans ++ . They would tip-toe in the water rarely going deeper than their knees . Many drownings at the beach were black folks .
I've seen one of them push another down in knee deep water - they super panic in that environment and nearly drown themselves .

They just can't swim. Scared of the water.

Rte: Back in the day when I was "on the job" we used to call these type endings to criminal conduct "street justice".
If this actually went down as reported I would consider this a wonderful example of "street justice".
He-he.

too bad there weren't alligators involved.

LOL. Cajun Justice !

Yep. Sink like an anchor.

I was at my friend's high school graduation party years ago. His property had a pond with a huge rope swing to jump off of. Of course there was a token black guy at the party. Everyone wanted him to go off the swing. I told my buddy no way he is going near that rope but he finally caved in hit the water knocked himself out with his knee and we had to rescue him

I went o HS with a couple of Farm raised brothers.
Good ole hard working Country Boys. Both sounded like TX Rednecks when they talked. No Ebonics schitt. There Dad would have beat their ass.
Any how, did a lot of fishing with them when we were kids.
If my lure got tangled up, I’d wade in and get it.
Not them. They’d cut their line.

Old news . It happened in 2017 .

Sounds like the plot from Fargo, just a little farther south.

maybe it is genetic. ingrained fear of crocodiles ,from their ancesters in Africa
