Investigators Seeking Information on Bail Absconder
On August 28th, 2023, investigators with the Los Santos County Sheriff's Department apprehended Avery Lafayette, 44, for failing to appear before a criminal trial. Lafayette along with his wife, Dionne Lafayatte, 44, absconded from their agreed upon bail release and led investigators on a week long manhunt of the two.
Los Santos Police pulled Lafayette over in an unregistered vehicle after he failed to come to a stop at a controlled intersection. Lafayette led LSPD officers on a brief chase before they were able to stop and capture him. The Los Santos Police informed LS County Sheriffs of the arrest and investigators were able to pick him up from their custody.
Dionne Lafayette is still at large and is believed to be carrying a large sum of cash on her which is aiding her escape from law enforcement. Investigators believe that she may be hiding out of the City of Los Santos and may have changed her appearance. We ask for anyone who may have information or know the whereabouts of Dionne Lafayette to please come forward to Major Crimes Bureau investigators. As always you can pass this information along anonymously by phone or in person at a LSSD station.
