Bossier Parish Foster Parent Arrested For Rape, Child Porn

A Bossier Parish Air Force veteran is behind bars, accused of raping and sexually exploiting young boys in his foster care. Lt. Bill Davis with Bossier Parish Sheriff’s Office says 51-year-old Terral Parfait was arrested after one of his victims came forward.

“A juvenile victim came forward on Monday to tell us about sexual encounters with this man while he was under his foster care that went back about seven years,” Davis said.

Davis says Parfait lives alone and has been a foster parent for quite some time. He says so far, Parfait has been charged with three counts of 1^stdegree rape.

“The three charges of 1^st degree rape stem from him actually admitting to having sexual relations with three different boys under the age of 12 who were under his foster care,” Davis said.

Davis says hundreds of floppy disks, flash drives, VHS, and DVDs were also seized from the suspect’s home. He says Parfait is also charged with possession and production of child pornography.

“We have also found images of known child pornography, as well as child pornography, their photos that he took of boys that were in his care” Davis said.
