(1833, Louisiana) The Slave Who Boiled His Mistress Alive in the Sugar Vats

In November of eighteen thirty-three, on a sugar plantation seven miles from New Orleans, a woman was found dead in a refinery vat. Céleste Durand had been held under boiling syrup for approximately four hours. The man accused of killing her—an enslaved worker named Marcus—vanished before authorities could arrest him. He was never found. This video examines what led to that moment of violence, what happened in the aftermath, and why the case still matters. Using courthouse records, plantation ledgers, tribunal testimony, and oral histories, we reconstruct a story that Louisiana tried to bury. We explore the mathematics of sugar production and human suffering, the systems that made cruelty profitable, and the impossible choices enslaved people faced when trying to survive or resist. This isn't entertainment. It's an examination of how violence works, how power maintains itself, and how resistance ripples through communities in ways that official records rarely capture.
