Gueydan man arrested by AG Murrill's Louisiana Bureau of Investigation for 10 counts of Sexual Abuse of an Animal and 100 Counts of Possession of Child Sexual Abuse Materials

A man from Gueydan was arrested by Attorney General Liz Murrill's Louisiana Bureau of Investigation on August 12, 2025.

25-year-old James Wyatt Joseph Bouley, of Saltzman Road in Gueydan, was arrested in Crowley for violating:

  • 100 Counts of LA R.S 14:81.1E(5)(a) Child Sexual Abuse Materials under the age 13 (felony)
  • 10 Counts of LA R.S 14:89.3 Sexual Abuse of an Animal

Agents initially got a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

This arrest was a result of a joint investigation with The Louisiana Bureau of Investigation and Acadia Parish Sheriff’s Office.

"Cases like this are always very disturbing for our Louisiana Bureau of Investigation agents. I'd like to thank them and deputies with the Acadia Parish Sheriff's Office for their great work on this case. If you hurt our kids or animals in Louisiana, you're going straight to jail," said Attorney General Liz Murrill.

Bouley was booked into the Acadia Parish Jail.

His bond has reportedly been set at $125,000.

Our investigation continues.
