The Baroness Killing of a Countess

News of the Times Episode 288 | 1868 

Vienna 1867 and beautiful Baroness Julia Ebergenyi and dashing Lieutenant Count Chorinsky meet at a party.  Their meeting quickly develops into a passionate intimate affair.   There is only one hindrance to their future bliss: Count Chorinsky has been divorced from his 1860 impetuous marriage.  

The divorce granted from the Roman Catholic church stipulates that neither he nor his wife can ever marry again. A plan is hatched requiring travel to Munich were the present Countess Chorinsky lives. 

The highest levels of aristocracy, international intrigue and a passionate love triangle all helped to ensure that this sensational story travelled around the globe! We take a look at the background, the crime and the capture in today’s episode of Murderous Mondays.

Minnie is a hard working woman. - She has two little kids, there must be a way to help - Susan said. - Sadly, the law backs the landlord in this case... - Which are her options, then? A doss house? - she said -. That's not a safe place for her children, Joe! - Hopefully she knows someone that can take care of them, honey... ▪️▪️ - Ojalá pudiera ayudar de alguna manera, cariño - dijo Joe cuando Susan servía la cena -. Minnie es una curranta. - Tiene dos niñas pequeñas, debe haber alguna manera de ayudar - dijo Susan. - Desgraciadamente la ley apoya al dueño en casos así... - Cuáles són sus opciones, entonces? Un albergue? - dijo ella -. No es un lugar seguro para las niñas, Joe! - Por suerte conocerá a alguien que las podrá cuidar, amor... ▪️▪️ #victorianplaymo #victorian_playmo #victorianinspired #victorianstories #victorianengland #playmobil #playmobiltoys #playmobilfigures #playmobilcollector #playmobilofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CaKarC3MrPA/?utm_medium=tumblr
