Louisiana State Police Special Victims Unit Arrests Homer Man for Sexual Crimes Involving Minors

Claiborne Parish – The Louisiana State Police Special Victims Unit has arrested 36-year-old Ferono Marquan Curry of Homer following an extensive investigation into allegations of sexual abuse of multiple minor children.

In May 2025, LSP-SVU launched an investigation after receiving reports that two young children, ages six and eight, were being sexually abused in Claiborne Parish. During the investigation, an additional incident was reported, prompting Child Protective Services to intervene. Subsequently, the children were removed from the home, and Curry was arrested and processed in the Claiborne Parish Detention Center on two counts of first-degree rape.

As the investigation progressed, LSP-SVU uncovered additional allegations involving Curry and the same six-year-old and eight-year-old children, as well as an eight-month-old infant. Investigators executed search warrants at three residences and recovered multiple pieces of evidence, which are currently undergoing forensic analysis. Based on these findings, investigators obtained a second arrest warrant, charging Curry with three additional counts of first-degree rape.

Earlier today, a grand jury convened in the 2nd JDC and, after reviewing the evidence and testimony presented by investigators, returned a true bill indicting Curry on three counts of first-degree rape. The investigation remains ongoing. No further information is available at this time.

LSP-SVU works to rescue and seek justice for the victims of crimes involving the exploitation of children and the trafficking of humans for sex or labor. The public plays an important role in identifying suspects accused of these crimes and is urged to report criminal or suspicious activity. The Louisiana State Police online reporting system is available to the public through an anonymous reporting form that is submitted to the appropriate investigators. The form can be found by visiting http://la-safe.org/ and clicking on the “Suspicious Activity” link.
