In part one we learned about Angelina Rodriguez, a greedy opportunist with a heart of darkness. Angie\u2019s first marriage crumbled after the tragic \u201caccidental\u201d death of their baby daughter Alicia, and after cashing in on the $50,000 life insurance policy she\u2019d taken out on the baby the DAY before she died\u2014not to mention the nearly $800,000 settlement from suing the company that made the pacifier that caused Alicia\u2019s death\u2014Angie lived high on the hog for a while. But that money ran out, much faster than anyone would have expected, and Angie soon moved on to a new target\u2014I mean, husband\u2014Frank Rodriguez, whom she snagged by carefully molding herself into the image of the pious Christian family woman Frank had always dreamed of. But when healthy, 41 year old Frank died of unknown causes not long after he and Angie married, investigators began to suspect that this \u201cgrieving widow\u201d might not be grieving after all. And when we left you at the end of part 1, detectives were about to get an earful from Angie\u2019s best friend Palmira. Join us now for part 2.
