ST. LANDRY PARISH — UPDATE: Benjamin Philip Baquet, 30, has been booked in connection with the death of a seven-week-old baby.
Last month, St. Landry Crime Stoppers asked the public for help in locating Baquet, who was wanted for second-degree murder in connection with the baby's death, which doctors attributed to "shaken baby syndrome."
Records show Baquet has been booked by St. Landry Parish Sheriff's deputies on a charge of second-egree murder.
At the time of last month's announcement, deputies said that they had "very reliable information" that Baquet might be in the Acadiana area for the holidays.
