EPISODE 59: Princess Diana — Accident, or Something More Sinister?═══════════════════════════════════════August 31st, 1997. Paris. Princess Diana died in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel. The official verdict: unlawful killing caused by a drunk driver and reckless paparazzi pursuit. For millions of people, that verdict has never been enough.This episode explores:* The claim that Henri Paul was an MI6 informant — and the unexplained funds in his bank accounts* The bright flash of light reported by multiple witnesses in the tunnel immediately before the crash* The white Fiat Uno that made contact with the Mercedes and was never identified* Mohamed Al Fayed's allegation that Diana was pregnant with Dodi's child and the couple were about to announce their engagement* The 871-page Operation Paget report — the most thorough investigation ever applied to the case* The 2008 inquest verdict, and why it failed to fully satisfy believersFor believers, the combination of MI6 connections, witness testimony, and the Royal Family's motive to prevent Diana from publicly involving herself in a new relationship makes the accident narrative feel insufficient. For sceptics, six decades of investigation found nothing beyond what the crash itself explains.What is certain: Diana died at thirty-six. The investigation was imperfect. And the questions have never fully been quieted.Essential listening for searches including "Princess Diana murder conspiracy," "did the royal family kill Diana," "MI6 Diana death," "Diana car crash theory," "Dodi and Diana killed," "Princess Diana truth," and "Operation Paget findings."
