Ep 8. Antoinette Frank And Rogers Lacaze

In season 5 episode 8 of Snapped: Killer Couples, viewers are presented with the case of Antoinette Frank and Rogers Lacaze, a couple who turned to murder in an attempt to cover up their own crimes. Frank, a New Orleans police officer, and Lacaze, a former officer and current security guard, decided to rob a restaurant where Frank previously worked as a security guard. The couple believed they could get away with the crime due to their previous law enforcement experience, but things quickly took a deadly turn.

During the robbery, Frank and Lacaze ended up not only stealing money from the restaurant, but also killing three people inside: the restaurant's manager, a waitress, and a customer. The brutality of the crime shocked the community and led to a months-long investigation that ultimately resulted in Frank and Lacaze's arrests.

Throughout the episode, viewers hear from family members, witnesses, and law enforcement officials involved with the case. They discuss the various pieces of evidence that were used to link Frank and Lacaze to the crime, including DNA, fingerprints, and surveillance footage. The episode also delves into the couple's personal lives and their potential motives for committing such a heinous act.

As with all episodes of Snapped: Killer Couples, viewers are left to try to understand the psychology behind how two people could come together to commit murder. The show raises questions about the power dynamics in relationships, the role of law enforcement officials in committing crimes, and how seemingly normal individuals can suddenly turn to violence. The episode also serves as a reminder that justice can still be served even when the perpetrators believe they can use their own knowledge of the justice system to evade punishment.
