🌙 Four different eras. Four true crimes. And four stories that left a deep mark on Spanish true crime history. Tonight we'll travel from late 19th-century Madrid to early 1980s Spain to reconstruct four documented cases that tested the police, the courts, and society itself.
We'll begin with the Fuencarral Street murder of 1888, one of Spain's first major media trials; then we'll travel to Don Benito in 1902, where a double murder nearly sparked a popular uprising; we'll learn the story of Pilar Prades, executed in Valencia in 1959 and considered the last woman executed in Spain; and we'll conclude with the Almería Case of 1981, the deaths of three workers mistaken for ETA members and the subsequent legal proceedings. Four different stories told from available documentation, distinguishing proven facts from the versions, errors, and myths that emerged afterward.
😴 Get comfortable, dim the lights, and join me on this journey through the dark side of Spanish history, told calmly and without dwelling on the most gruesome aspects.
