High-stakes negotiations take center stage in National Geographic’s “Life or Death: The Negotiators.” This Wednesday’s episode, “The Negotiators vs. Rogue Cop,” examines a tense 1996 hostage situation in a Louisiana bank, where the perpetrator was none other than Sheriff’s Deputy Chad Louviere.
The fact that Louviere’s ex-wife worked at the bank adds another volatile element to the already precarious standoff, putting the negotiators’ skills to the ultimate test. The series aims to give viewers insight into the minds of those tasked with resolving these kinds of life-or-death crises.
“Life or Death: The Negotiators” airs Wednesday, May 28 at 10:00 PM ET on National Geographic.
