Episode description

The Dark Secrets of Evil Abbe Bruneau
News of the Times Episode 246 | 1894
Evil Abbe Bruneau – a name still remembered in France!  In 1894, in a village located in Brittany, an abbe of the local church is found dead in a well, severely battered.  It would appear that logs had been thrown on top of him once he was in the well.
What unfolds is a tale of debauchery, arson, scandal, forgery, and a few horrific murders as well.  The tale of Abbe Bruneau’s crimes would be considered salacious by most standards.  We take a look at the man and the crimes of Abbe Bruneau in today’s episode of Murderous Mondays.
Hosted by Robin Coles.
