OPELOUSAS, LA — A disturbing homicide case in Louisiana has taken a new turn as police say the man accused of murdering his mother and hiding her body in a trash bin is now facing additional criminal charges.

According to KADN News 15, 33-year-old Aaron Lloyd has been rebooked into the St. Landry Parish Prison on new charges of include obstruction of justice, failure to seek assistance, aggravated second-degree battery, and possession with intent to distribute a Schedule II controlled dangerous substance.

Lloyd was initially arrested on charges of first-degree murder and distribution of Schedule II drugs.

Police say Lloyd admitted to injecting his mother, Lisa Lloyd, 65, with methamphetamine before fatally beating her and disposing of her body in a garbage can outside her residence on Park Circle, in Opelousas, Louisiana.

Opelousas Police, working alongside the St. Landry Parish Sheriff’s Office, located Lloyd in Krotz Springs, where he was taken into custody. During questioning, authorities said Lloyd confessed to the killing in full.

According to KADN, this is the fourth murder reported in Opelousas so far this year. Residents along Park Circle told reporters that such violence is rare in their quiet neighborhood.

Investigators say the case remains active, and Opelousas police have indicated that more arrests may be forthcoming as the probe continues.
