She's known as the Zydeco Sweetheart, but now Rosie Ledet is at the center of an investigation surrounding a dead baby in Allen Parish.
According to the Allen Parish Sheriff's Department, Ledet told investigators she gave birth to a stillborn infant July 1st, but waited four days before calling authorities.
No charges have been filed against Ledet, but an autopsy is still pending on the baby, which a preliminary report described as "near full term."
"We're not going to make an arrest until our investigation is complete, especially with the high profile, this woman is a musician, that has nothing to do with doing an investigation," said Detective Peggy Kennedy with the Allen Parish Sheriff's Department.
Authorities were not notified about the baby until July 5th. Investigators say Ledet told them she had a miscarriage at her home in Iota, then took the body, wrapped in a blanket to a shed behind a home on Bel Oil Road in Elton.
