18- year-old Nikyra Cheyenne Dedeaux was a nursing student from Gulfport in Southern Mississippi. Her mother said she wasn’t supposed to be there, but she snuck out.

28-year-old Nicole Perez was a deli manager who had recently moved into a new apartment with her four-year-old son.

37-year-old Reggie Hunter was a warehouse manager and devoted father of two from Baton Rouge.
