Father Charged With Killing 1-Yr-Old Child
HOUMA, Louisiana — A Terrebonne man is charged with suffocating his 1-year-old son to death, police said Saturday. Cody John Paul Bourg, 23, 122 Garth Drive, was arrested Friday and booked on a single count of second-degree murder in the death of his son, Julian Bourg. Cody Bourg remained in the Terrebonne jail Saturday in lieu of a $500,000 bond. If convicted, he faces mandatory life in prison. But the accused man’s mother, brother and other family members interviewed Saturday night are devastated by the turn of events and said Bourg was a good father who would never hurt his child. Julian, they say, had a few respiratory problems but was otherwise healthy. He apparently suddenly stopped breathing Oct. 19 in the home on Garth Drive in the Ashland North subdivision, relatives said.
