  • Résumé

  • Crime is so commonplace that it takes something particularly shocking to be labelled the “crime of the century.” Even so, there are a lot of cases that have earned the distinction. In each episode of Crimes of the Centuries, award-winning journalist Amber Hunt will examine a case that’s lesser known today but was huge when it happened. The cases explored span the centuries and each left a mark. Some made history by changing laws. Others were so shocking they changed society.

    S4 Ep39 Part 2: Claus von Bülow's Two Trials of the Century
    Dec 17 2024
    We are bringing you part two of the "Sunny" von Bülow story as a Bonus episode!

    When heiress and socialite Martha "Sunny" von Bülow was found unresponsive on the bathroom floor, her husband seemed awfully quick to pull the plug when doctors declared her comatose. Suspicions only grew when investigators discovered that Claus von Bülow had a mistress who'd given him an ultimatum to leave Sunny or else. But what seemed at first glance as an open-and-shut case turned out to be anything but.

    S4 Ep39: The Decades-Long Death of "Sunny" von Bülow
    Dec 16 2024
    To outsiders, Claus and Martha "Sunny" von Bülow seemed an idyllic couple on the upper echelons of high society, but those who knew them best were growing increasingly concerned in the late 1970s when Sunny began having health scares that doctors couldn't figure out. Claus said his wife was a depressed alcoholic, but Sunny's children and maid weren't so sure. Things took a tragic turn after Christmas of 1980, captivating the country and beyond with one of the highest-profile cases of the 20th century.

  • S4 Ep38: The Nazi Plunder of World War II

    S4 Ep38: The Nazi Plunder of World War II
    Dec 9 2024
    We all know Adolph Hitler as a mediocre artist-turned-genocidal dictator, but did you know that he pulled off the greatest art heist the world has ever seen? As World War II unfolded across Europe, Hitler directed his Nazis to steal countless masterpieces from every country they traversed. He kept his favorites, while others were hidden in castles and salt mines to be unearthed after the war ended. Many of the pieces have never been recovered.
