Amanda Leigh Carney Photos: Full Story & Must-See Details On Murder Victim


A 18-year-old woman from Claiborne Parish, Louisiana, was allegedly murdered by an escaped prison inmate on Thursday. Amanda Leigh Carney is the stepdaughter of an assistant prison warden, as well as a recent graduate of Summerfield High School.
Carney was allegedly abducted and held hostage by a 39-year-old prison escapee named Deltra Henderson. The convict escaped from David Wade Correctional Center, and later found the young lady in her car. He allegedly stole the car, took the lady hostage and later stabbed her to death. Henderson ditched her vesicle in the woods, and confronted another civilian and also stole that person’s vehicle.
Henderson was previously serving time for three separate felony charges: 10 years for distributing cocaine, 30 years for attempted armed robbery and 30 years for aggravated burglary. According to documents obtained by KTBS, he had the possibility of being released on March 28, 2025. However, he died in a police shootout following his alleged kidnapping and murder of an 18-year-old female.
Police found Henderson at his home, where he barricaded himself inside and fired upon responding officers. The incident has been neutralized and the suspect/escapee is dead.
