About this episode

On December 3, 1980, Canadian professor Cyril Belshaw, a world-renowned anthropologist from the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, stood trial in the city of Aigle, Switzerland charged with the murder of his wife, Betty. Her body had been discovered 21 months earlier, along a remote Swiss mountain pass not far from where the couple spent a sabbatical. Odd: Just two months before her remains were found, Belshaw had reported her missing, claiming they had been visiting Paris at the time of her disappearance. Some things just did not add up.RATING & REVIEW (highly appreciated) FOLLOWING (to be informed about future episodes) FEEDBACK & COMMENT (written or audio recording) SWISS MURDRER MYSTERIES WEBSITEAuthor & HostRudolph IslerGet in touchFACEBOOKINSTAGRAMLINKEDIN DonationsPayPalREVOLUTCopyrightPlayground Media Productions Ltd.
