In October of 1998 the family of a 30-year-old Houma art student, Shannon Harris, reported him missing to the Houma Police Department after he did not arrive back at the school he was attending in Dallas following a visit.
“An investigation started at that time but despite everyone’s best efforts no headway was made in locating Shannon Harris,” said Houma Police Chief Dana Coleman. “Our detectives continued to follow up leads and in 2002 explored a field near Hollywood Road and 9th Street with no results.”
On Sept. 19, 2020, Houma police officers made contact with 47-year-old Stanley Briggs regarding a medical emergency call. During conversation with officers Stanley Briggs provided information related to the disappearance of Shannon Harris. Further investigation revealed that Mr. Harris was the victim of a homicide, and that his body could be found in the vicinity of 9th Street and Hollywood Road, resulting in organization of a search. Members of Shannon Harris’ family were kept advised of the search efforts at all times.
On Monday, Sept. 28, Stanley Briggs was arrested on a charge of 2nd Degree Murder and the search efforts continued. On Thursday, Oct. 1, human remains were located in the field at Hollywood and 9th Street.

Chief Coleman expressed thanks to Sheriff Tim Soignet, whose personnel assisted, the Patterson La. Police Department, which provided a specially-trained canine, the Louisiana State Police and also Terrebonne Parish President Gordon Dove, for committing personnel and equipment from the Parish’s Public Work’s Department.
“Additionally, I wish to thank the Louisiana State University Department of Archaeology, whose members are assisting us greatly.”

Often wonder how many unfound bodies I've driven by near the interstates over my time.

How did the medical emergency lead to the confession and discovery of a body?

Guy was probably high off his arse and talking about it.

Guy thought he was dying and made a confession.

Probably thought he was going to die and wanted to come clean.
Eta: they probably told him how much the emergency call was going to cost and he decided prison would be cheaper

I didn’t read the whole article but usually someone catches a charge and says “but hey let me tell you about this” for a reduced sentence

Is that the same Stanley Briggs that went to Terrebonne High? Can’t tell from his mugshot.

You probably mean the bones of a man killed in 1998 were found, if he wasn’t in a freezer.

I used to shoot squirrels on that very spot when I was a kid 50 years ago. It was full of trees then.
I could paddle my pirouge from my house to there. Or ride my bike carrying a .22 rifle.

Hey Bigfish. It sounds like he killed his lover. Was he ashamed of being a poof?
