Full Episode
Hey, true crime besties. Welcome back to an all new episode of Serialistly. Hey everybody, welcome back to an all new episode of Serialistly with me, your true crime bestie. Can I talk? Hi, it's me, Annie Elise, who apparently can't even speak. Me, your true crime bestie, Annie Elise. Wow, that was rough guys, but it's a Monday, you know, give me a little grace. It's a Monday.
I hope you guys all had a really nice weekend. What did I do this weekend? Oh, I actually feel like I did more this weekend than I do any weekend the entire year. I had like two back-to-back events on Saturday.
I had a baby shower, and then I had an event for my son's school, a fundraising event, and then I decided to bed rot all day on Sunday, and I finished Paradise, which if you guys haven't watched that on Hulu...
oh my god it is so good I think I binged it in like two days and then what was I don't remember if it was the second to last episode I think it was where if you have watched it you know what I'm talking about but it like is recounting the day that everything went down I think that's even the title of the episode it's called the day I had such anxiety and nervous energy I thought it was real like
I literally thought I was in the movie Armageddon and that the world was ending and I thought it was real. It's such a good show. I'm so sad there's only one season because now I'm like waiting for season two and it's probably not going to come out for like two years. And then what else did I binge? I'm caught up with Severance, which is also so freaking good.
And well, by the time this airs, I guess the season finale will be out. So yeah. God, it's such a good show. Sorry, I probably just blew your eardrum out. And then, of course, I had to watch White Lotus. Piper! Piper Buddhism! You know, all of that stuff. So if you're like, Annie, just shut the hell up, please. Sorry. TV's my life, okay? TV's my life.
All right, so today's case, the one I wanted to talk to you about, this one is really interesting. I haven't heard a lot of people talk about it before, but I did see it on, I think it was Unsolved Mysteries, which that's always a good show, right? But they didn't really do a lot of in-depth, deep dive, nitty gritty details that, you know, I like live and die by.
So I had to go a little bit further. I wanted to just research it because it's a really complex case. It's like hidden family secrets with a splash of deceit. I don't want to say family annihilator, but I just wanted, let me break it all down for you and then you can be the judge. And, you know, I'm going to stop talking.
On April 21st of 2011, five members of the Dupont de Ligonnès family were found buried under the patio of the family home in Nantes. Dupont de Ligonnès had gone to great lengths to disguise his appearance, even undergoing cosmetic surgery.
