Prosecutors will seek the death penalty for the man accused of killing a woman and a Louisiana State Police Trooper and injuring several others back in an October crime spree.
31 YO Matthew Mire was indicted by an Ascension Parish jury on two counts of first-degree murder, two counts of attempted first-degree murder, and other charges on Oct. 14. Mire pleaded not guilty to those charges.
Authorities say Mire is accused of shooting a man and a woman at a home on Dutton Road in Prairieville around 3 a.m on Oct. 9. Both victims were taken to the hospital and the woman, 37 YO Pamela Adair, later died.
Investigators say Mire is also accused of ambushing and fatally shooting Master Trooper Adam Gaubert less than a mile away from the house on Dutton Road. Police say Master Trooper Gaubert, a 19-year veteran of LSP, was shot while sitting in his marked patrol unit.
Mire is also accused of shooting two people in Livingston Parish.
