According to his confession and information gleaned from other sources, Dominique, whom some are already calling the "Bayou Strangler," enticed his victims with promises of money in exchange for sex—either with Dominique himself or his nonexistent wife.
After negotiating a deal with a potential victim, Dominique would drive the man to his home, a tiny camper trailer parked beside his sister's mobile home off of Bayou Blue Road, just northeast of Houma, or to another location Sheriff Larpenter declined to identify. Once Dominique got his intended victim to a secure spot, Larpenter said, he would tell the man that he had to tie him up first, before they had sex. If the victim was heterosexual, Dominique would claim that his "wife" was shy and wouldn't come into the room until the man was tied up.

Dominique never fought with his victims, Larpenter said. Instead, he took advantage of their desperation and tricked them into allowing themselves to be put into a helpless position. No drugs were involved.
"Every one of them was voluntarily tied up," Larpenter said. "Once he got you tied up, you were his."

Dominique chose his victims carefully. "These were street people," Larpenter explained. "A lot of them were living pillar to post." Some were barely missed.
