The Notorious French Ogress Serial Killer - Jeanne Weber
Serial Killer Saturdays
News of the Times Episode 232 | 1905 - 1908
Today’s episode, from 1905 to 1908 France, investigates the case of Jeanne Weber, a thrice accused serial killer who managed to avoid justice twice. Employing strangulation techniques which were difficult to spot in Edwardian England, Jeanne Weber managed to evade justice several times, continue her killing spree over 2 years, and elicit apologies for her hounding from the newspapers. For some time, there was much sympathy within the press and within the public for Jeanne Weber, until she was caught red handed…
A fascinating 1905 French serial killer, whose preferred modus operandi was slow strangulation, is today’s episode of Serial Killer Saturdays.
Hosted by Robin Coles.
