LAROSE, LA. (THECOUNT) — Lafourche Parish Sheriff Craig Webre says, the Larose couple found dead on Tuesday after a double shooting murder-suicide have been identified as Nicholas Verdin, 35, and Tiffany Naquin Verdin, 41, according to officials.
Detectives believe Nicholas Verdin shot Tiffany Verdin before taking his own life.
The incident was reported just before noon on Tuesday, October 1, 2019, after a teenager living at the house in the 100 block of Louis Drive in Larose arrived home and discovered the couple.
“We extend our heartfelt sympathies to the families of those involved in this tragic incident,” said Sheriff Craig Webre. “Investigators are still processing evidence, but all signs point to this incident being determined as a murder-suicide,” reports LPSO.
Based on evidence collected at the scene, detectives believe Nicholas Verdin shot Tiffany Verdin before turning the gun on himself and taking his own life. The residence is equipped with a surveillance system that showed no unknown subjects entering or leaving the residence since the previous night, and there were no signs of forced entry.
