Biographie Therrien Lucien

Lucien Therrien was the name he was born with, but after approximately age 17, adopted the name Louis Valley. It was a variation of his given name and the surname of his older half-brothers and sisters. His father, also Lucien Therrien, was an abusive person, and a criminal who played a part in the grisly murder of a prostitute in New Bedford in 1914. Prior to that he had been charged with attempted rape on a minor female (several charges) and "white slavery" (pimping).
