Steven Judy was a serial killer who murdered at least eight people in Louisiana and Indiana in the 1980s and 1990s. He was finally caught and sentenced to death in 1996.

Judy's first known victim was 23-year-old Melissa Ann Hammons, who was found dead in her Lafayette, Louisiana, apartment in 1985. She had been stabbed multiple times.

In 1987, Judy murdered two more women in Louisiana: 22-year-old Karen Marie Booth and 20-year-old Anne Marie Bourgeois.

In 1989, Judy moved to Indiana, where he continued his killing spree. He murdered three women in Indiana: 19-year-old Julie Ann Moore, 20-year-old Laurie Ann Garrett, and 32-year-old Jeanne Gilbert.

Judy was finally caught in 1995 after he was linked to the murder of 22-year-old Angela Marie Pico in South Bend, Indiana. He was convicted of murder and sentenced to death in 1996.

Judy's crimes were particularly heinous because he often targeted young women who were vulnerable and alone. He would often strangle his victims and then stab them multiple times.

Judy's case is a reminder of the dangers of serial killers and the importance of being aware of your surroundings. If you see something suspicious, say something.
