Antoinette Frank was a 23-year-old rookie New Orleans police officer when she and Rogers LaCaze terrorized the family-owned Kim Anh restaurant, shooting dead Officer Ronald Williams, and siblings Ha and Cuong Vu during a 1995 robbery.
Antoinette Frank (born 30th April 1971) is a former New Orleans police officer who was convicted of the murders of three people and is one ot two women on Louisiana's death row located in St. Gabriel at the Louisiana Correctional Institute for Women.
Frank had an unstable childhood, but there was one thing that was clear to her since she was a small girl: she wanted to become a policewoman.
As a teenager and, later on, young adult, Frank suffered from being a member of a broken family: her brother was a law fugitive, her father would appear in her life only occasionally, and Frank became distressed about these issues, needing psychiatric help.
According to author Chuck Hustmyre, a former policeman himself, when Frank applied to become a cop in Louisiana, she lied about her psychological and psychiatric condition in order to be hired as a policewoman.
Frank served in the New Orleans Police for less than one year and was hired despite being caught lying on several sections of her application. During a shooting, she met her future boyfriend, an alleged drug dealer named Rogers LaCaze, who had been badly injured during the shooting and who required help from Frank that night, as well as hospitalization.
