#8 Impostor Duchess, Part 1

from Grifter: True Crime · host Sonali Verghese

In 1920, in Berlin, a woman was seen standing on the edge of a bridge and moments later, she jumped into the river, attempting to take her own life. She was saved and transferred to Dalldorf asylum, because she wouldn’t speak or identify herself. In the next two years of her stay, she was given the name Anna Anderson and was noted as being anti-social, with strange scars on her body. Soon, a fellow patient identified her as a missing Russian duchess - Anastasia Romanov - daughter of Tsar Nicholas, who was murdered in 1918 by his Bolshevik guards. Except, not everyone believed her story and those people set out to prove Anna was a lying impostor.
