Episode description
The Socialite Serial Killer
News of the Times Episode 257 | 1895
1894 Antwerp Belgium and one of the top leading social lights of the country is arrested for the murder of three relatives who were all heavily insured. As the story unfolds into the life of a couple who were considered wealthy and leaders within society, what begins to become clear to investigators is that despite appearances, this was a woman desperate for money. Spending far above actual income, and living on credit, it would seem that a family member had to die every time the creditors were closing in.
As investigations are pursued, questions are asked regarding other deaths within the circle of Madame Joniaux
We look at the history, crime and capture of the socialite serial killer in 1894 Belgium in today’s episode of Serial Killer Saturdays.
Hosted by Robin Coles.
