Arrest in Brusly teacher's death comes after investigator spends 7 years making his own breaks

Maj. Todd Morris treated the case like all the others he's investigated during his 28 years with the East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office, pursuing every possible lead and sticking to his personal belief that "you make your own breaks."

And he refused to stop following up — even after seven years had passed since Sylviane Finck Lozada disappeared under suspicious circumstances and international politics had brought the investigation almost to a standstill. That perseverance helped achieve a remarkable outcome as Oscar Lozada was arrested this month and accused of killing his wife in 2011 following years of documented domestic abuse, then fleeing from Baton Rouge to Venezuela with their young daughter.

Trial delayed for man accused of killing and dismembering his wife, a Brusly school teacher

Oscar Lozada, 45, had been scheduled to stand trial Monday, but his attorney, East Baton Rouge Parish Assistant Public Defender Quintillis Lawrence, and Assistant District Attorney Dana Cummings jointly asked for that it be delayed.

Cummings told ad hoc Judge Lou Daniel during a brief hearing in the second-degree murder case that the motion to continue the trial was prompted by the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Daniel granted the motion and set a status conference for Aug. 13.

Lozada, who was in court Monday, has remained in custody since his 2018 arrest.

This year he rejected an offer to plead guilty to manslaughter and obstruction of justice in exchange for a 50-year prison term. He faces a mandatory sentence of life in prison if found guilty of second-degree murder.
