In 1995, a pair of eight-year-old girls were kidnapped from the Belgian countryside. Later, two teens vanished after leaving a magic show. Then another set of girls disappeared. Hysteria gripped the country, while the police response seemed not up to the task. After questioning, Marc Dutroux would take investigators to his home where they discovered two of the girls being held in a dungeon. Dutroux’s arrest set in motion a controversy over police errors, government ineptitude, and accusations of cover-ups.In “Le Monstre: The Dutroux Affair” from iHeart Media and Tenderfoot TV, host Matt Graves looks into the crimes of Belgium's deadliest serial killer. It also explores the country’s institutional failures to protect children and the massive protest movement demanding reforms.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "LE MONSTRE" BEGIN IN THE FINAL TEN MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.
