Ten-Most Wanted list and the entire country was looking for her.However, this was not exactly the way it happened, thus the story of the woman that came to be known as "Lula May" and "Dr.Death", vicious murderer of her own son and several others that interfered with the pursuit of her destiny!She had been chosen by a Higher Power before she was born to become the protector of a special place and its creature inhabitants that had become endangered by human encroachment, namely an isolated swamp in Louisiana.
