EP2- New Orleans- The Butchering of Addie Hall

Please follow and review! Thank you for listening! Questions and comments to: monteashleymader@gmail.com The Zack and Addie case is a tragic story that unfolded in New Orleans, Louisiana, with Hurricane Katrina serving as a backdrop to the events. In August 2005, Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast, devastating New Orleans and causing widespread destruction and displacement. Amidst the chaos and aftermath of the hurricane, the city saw a surge in crime and social upheaval. In October 2006, the bodies of Zackery Bowen and Adriane "Addie" Hall were discovered in their apartment in the French Quarter. Bowen, a bartender, had killed Hall, his girlfriend, dismembered her body, and then jumped to his death from a hotel rooftop. The details of the case shocked the community and garnered national attention. The murder-suicide of Zack and Addie became emblematic of the post-Katrina trauma experienced by many New Orleans residents. The couple's story highlighted the strain on mental health resources, the breakdown of social support systems, and the lingering effects of the disaster on the city's residents.
