'THE WRONG PLACE, THE WORST TIME'
On November 12, 1999, Gillis picked up 36-year-old Joyce Williams shortly after she left a house on Oriole Street in Baton Rouge. He drove her across the Mississippi River and killed her. Hunters found her skeletal remains two months later lying on the bank of the river in Iberville Parish. One of her legs had been severed.

During the second week of January 2000, Gillis picked up a 52-year-old prostitute named Lillian Robinson. Lillian was a drug addict and an alcoholic. She had two adult sons, a daughter, and grandchildren. A month later, fishermen found Lillian's naked body floating in the Atchafalaya Basin near Whiskey Bay, 30 miles from Baton Rouge.

In late October, Gillis drove to Lafayette, La., 40 miles west of Baton Rouge. He kidnapped and murdered Marilyn Nevils, a 38-year-old drug addict and prostitute. Gillis then drove her to Baton Rouge and dumped her body next to the Mississippi River, at a spot one mile south of Ben Hur Road and three miles from his house on Burgin Avenue. Marilyn's decomposed body was found on Halloween. No one had even reported her missing.
