Ep 43: Sophie Toscan Du Plantier’s Murde...

LAURA RICHARDS
About this episode

Laura and former New York City Prosecutor and retired FBI profiler Jim Clemente continue their forensic deconstruction of Sophie Toscan Du Plantier’s murder.


In this episode Laura uses the Sky docuseries ‘Murder at the Cottage: The Search for Justice for Sophie’ directed by six-time Oscar nominee Jim Sheridan as a jumping off point for my discussion with Jim. We share our thoughts on the police investigation, the key witness Marie Farrell, what happened to the missing weapon as well as the main suspect who was arrested twice by the Garda.
