Charge upgraded for man accused of Denham Springs hit-and-run crash after woman dies

BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — A man accused of a Denham Springs hit-and-run that claimed the life of 20-year-old Jody Mann has been booked into jail again on a new charge.

Mann was struck and killed in March while walking home from a friend’s house along Louisiana Highway 1023, just south of Highway 63. Suspected driver Brandon Chenevert, 30, was reportedly seen on surveillance footage returning to the scene. He was initially arrested on April 2 and released on bond the following day.

Jail records show Chenevert was re-booked on Monday and is now facing a charge of negligent homicide. Authorities say he also faces several other charges, including felony hit-and-run and obstruction of justice.

Court records reveal a lengthy criminal history for Chenevert, with prior charges dating back to 2014. His record includes offenses such as careless operation of a vehicle, driving while intoxicated, and simple assault.
