Sex-drug ring ensnared Louisiana man, leaving him dead

Justice has been fleeting for the Arthurs since Shawn died in his apartment the night of Feb. 24, 2017. The police found beer, whiskey and drug capsules on the floor of the nearly empty, carpeted apartment, not far from Shawn’s lifeless body. They also reviewed phone records and found Shawn had been in touch that evening with a prostitute who offered online escort services.

Shawn’s credit cards, TV, engagement ring, wedding bands and his truck were all stolen, and the police found someone had used his credit and debit cards the next day in New Orleans.

But the Jefferson Parish Coroner’s Office and the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office both quickly concluded Shawn’s death was an accident and not the result of any foul play.

Zeagler, a homicide detective, notified the Arthurs in May that he was closing the case as an accidental death, less than three months into his initial investigation.
