97: Bad Blood: The de Ligonnes family Murders

This week's case is the story of an aristocratic French family. Five of the family members were murdered, and the patriarch, who is also the main suspect, is nowhere to be found. To this day, no one has seen him, although there are many theories around what may have happened.
