Mother Punished Daughter for Loving Outside Her Class: Blanche Monnier Case
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 июн 2024
- Blanche Monnier, born into a world of privilege and grace in France, 1849, mysteriously disappeared one day, leaving no clues behind. What followed is almost unbelievable.
Did the years in that room shatter her mental health? Or did her mental health issues send her to that prison in the first place?
While we may never uncover the truth, it's a thought-provoking question: Which explanation do you believe holds more weight?

So sad. So her brother was a lawyer but she couldn't marry one? Glad her brother never recovered. What happened to the lawyer she loved...a normal and happy life?
I bet he moved on.
Unfortunately he died unexpectedly in 1885, when Blance in her 12th year of imprisonment.
@@ilicarriedoll2843 did he marry in the 12 years? Sad story and who wants that level of society.
Thats terrible that mother was jealous of her daughters beauty, that's psychotic. So sad.
It happens more than you know...
Maybe not psychotic, but just plain diabolical. A truly evil person.
The saddest part- her ‘nobody’ probably would have treated her like the debutante she was…🥺 so sad- everyone deserves to be happy 🥲🤷🏼♀️
At least attempt to be happy.
Her brother became a lawyer, why didnt the mom imprison him then?
Money; that's why. Marcel was wealthy, but Blanche's suitor wasn't. He was penniless.
Because Mom was psycho, there was no rhyme or reason to her actions, just abuse and control.
Hi Chris. I have heard about this poor girl over the years and doesn't get any easier, listening to it again. Blanche was such a beautiful young woman. Like I've always said, you can not help who you fall in love with and this is no different. Thank you for sharing
Shame on that horrible woman for doing this to her girl.
like Josef Fritzl
@@edwardnardone7485 just like him. That evil man.
Poor thing. No one deserves that! Thank you for the excellent and interesting recap!
How horrifying! May her mother rest in hell.
I remember hearing this story years ago. Just so sad. Pure evil. Love ya Chris. You and Amy are great. Be safe. 💕💕
Love ya MsC!
Y'all did such a great job on this story! I'm fascinated by these old historical stories.. Poor Blanche 😢 How horrible 😢
Holy Smokes! This is a seriously troubling story….
Thank you Chris….beautiful job on this recap!
Outside locks don't lie. 🤬
Monstrous horrible "mother." Only concerned for her own honor. She does this to her own daughter, together with all those who knew exactly what was going on.
Despite the brother Marcel's claim, she could not have left anytime she wanted because there was a padlock outside the bedroom door.
Blanche was not mentally ill. Being locked in that room did her in.
Another interesting, unknown story. Thanks Chris !
It's so bizarre how families do this.
They make their own lives a living hell to make another's life a living hell.
This case has always haunted me.
I've always found this case heartbreaking!
Thanks for the recap Chris and Amy! ❤
😢💔
Heartbreaking.
JUSTICE.
God Bless 💗🙏
Wow! This is horrifying and Unbelievable!! ❤❤✌️
Well, this was indeed a heart breaker. To lose a quarter-century of your life, just like that, whether it was because of her domineering mother, or if she really was mentally ill... I can't imagine it, nor do I want to, ever. Really sad.
Be good, be kind, don't litter, be genuine and take care of one another, TCR Fam.
That kind of isolation definitely fucks with a persons psyche they were the ones that let that happen to her my high school criminology class covered this case. (back when I was in high school that is)
This story is heartbreaking.
It shows that beauty is also nurtured. It fades so fast with forms of abuse. So sad.
Her own brother would read her the paper, how honorable.A smart lawyer, a pillar of the community, he could have, should have but chose to turn a blind eye. She couldn’t have left on her own because there were locks on the door. Chris and Amy have a great week as well as everyone else.
How very sad. 😢
The absolute depths of depravity, fuelled by an intense jealousy of her own lovely daughter. She had to ruin it. She couldn't handle it so she obliterated it.
I hate thinking of how satisfied she must have been with herself over the years watching her daughters light slowly fade away in the dark, forgotten.
Monster.
Hey Chris. Thanks for the recap. Always look forward to your videos.
Appreciate you thanks!
❤Thank you Chris❤
Our pleasure Bridgett!
Hello, Bridgett!
@@VernSherris Hellooo Vern!!!
Think about it, feces was the only constant stimulation she had that was a way to express herself. To us it's disgusting and something to get as far from as possible but she had no sun,no fresh air,no clothes,no friends or family barely anything to eat but she had excrement. It's so humiliating and heart wrenching and they all failed her. This world and this life failed her.
Thanks for the recap.
Schizophrenia can be a horrible disease, and if the family was telling the truth, that would explain things. At that time in society, many people would try to keep a family member confined rather than admit that a family member had a mental illness. I can't completely dismiss the brother's account.
On the other hand, the world is full of people who are addicted to power and control. If her mother was that kind of person, society of that time would have allowed her mother to inflict that kind of imprisonment on a daughter. The effect of being treated that way for decades would have destroyed the victim. I'm inclined to believe that the mother committed this atrocity, but obviously, I can't be sure from across the world and over a hundred years later. If the mother inflicted this torture on her, I hope her mother is punished for all of eternity.
But she wasn’t schizophrenic. That’s just it. They said that to cover their tracks. They have the money in the means to put her in a proper facility. Had she actually been schizophrenic but she was not. It was to keep her from marrying someone that her mother did not deem fit. It’s disgusting.
Please drop the "punished for all of eternity" nonsense. This crime was committed on this earth. The mother and brother got away with it for years even though others knew about it. The failure of earthly justice let them get away with what was essentially murder.
@@sweettexast2894 We don't know whether she was schizophrenic. We have no real evidence in either direction. I lean towards believing that her mother just didn't like her boyfriend, but I don't have any evidence. You don't have any evidence either. Plenty of people just hear a story and jump to a conclusion that satisfies a need to feel the emotional catharsis of self-righteous indignation. That feeling is one of the worst addictions in modern society. We need to go back to a time when we looked at things rationally and admitted to what we do and do not know.
@@peternolan4107 You're welcome to have your belief about eternity. I'm welcome to have my belief about eternity. That you think my view is nonsense doesn't strengthen your position at all. I will continue to write what I believe. I will not drop anything just because you don't like what I think and write. That you make that request is arrogant and foolish.
Great job, Chris. This was a sad but interesting story.
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you🙏🏻
This was hard to listen to, thank you for sharing
Such an incredible story teller.
What a shame so very sorry for her 😢 😔 😞
Aren't there photos of Blanche cleaned up after being rescued?
Such a tragic story.
She was really so beautiful 😮 she looked 92 not 52 😢 how anyone could survive 25 years mentally 😢 spent her freedom in a psychiatric hospital 😢so sad😢
Blanche was very beautiful. So sad.
What a fascinating historical episode. Loved it!
This is awful, 25 years of torture essentially, poor Blanche 😔😔
Hey Chris! 🩷
Hey Ash and Emi! Good to see you!
Hi, Ash. Hello, Emi.
Devastating. No one knows what goes on behind closed doors. Be kind. Your words might be the last words some people ever hear.
I love your videos! ❤❤
So glad you’re here!
Hi Chris! I enjoy the videos!
Happy to hear it, thank you so much!
Hello, keslsey9605!
@@VernSherris hello Vern!
@@kelsey9605 Hi, Kelsey! I hope you and yours will have a safe and happy holiday tomorrow. Bye for now.
Love your stories
How diabolical. An interesting story from the past. Thanks Chris. Hi from a beautiful autumnal Melbourne 🇦🇺
Have a wonderful night Chris and Amy ❤
You too Jessica!
You have a good night, too, Jessica.
We, as humans, need connections because we are social beings. This is torture. God Bless Her Soul!! May she be Free in death.
That’s sick! And the brother said the long time maid was the only one near her? So the maid is to blame as well! No? Her life wasted
Why could noone investigate and fine her way sooner??
A Mother's Day card from
True Crime Recaps.
Insanity....insanity keeps you going
That poor woman
I can't believe I am three episodes behind 😮
Fifteen months! And then he is acquitted!
I doubt she was mentally ill beforehand. She does not look it and a young man found her attractive and fell in love with her. Of course, they claimed they only did it help her. They were astoundingly vile people who essentially got away with murder.
What is really terrible is her mom and her brother got away with it
When you said that the brother worked in local government, everything else made sense.
OMG
She’s so beautiful 🩷
Her mother is a vagabond.
Poor Blanch! And what a f'd up family!
Reminiscent of the Lacey Fletcher case How could parents do this to their own children> And wait! The brother was a lawyer? But that wasn't good enough for Blanche to be in love with a lawyer? How sick and twisted
The nrother have money but her lover is not. It is f- up
I can only speak for myself, but I really believe that most would say that much of her mental illness stemmed from her captivity.
Hiya Chris they were evil scumbags
I love stories that mention the townsfolk😂
Oh she could leave anytime she wanted to. There was a friggen padlock on the door!?
I cal BS that she had the mental disorder before being confined. They had the money and means to access the best doctors and care for her if she was such. The mother was pure evil and she got off lucky with a conveniently timed death before she could be punished. Unbelievable.
A recent similar case Lacey Fletcher didn't last as long.
You'd have to have a off kilter mind if o be able to live with that kind of stench.
So her son can be a lawyer but her daughter can't date one. Got it.
Just a simple request.... Could you cut back on the hand motions please? Sorry but it is distracting.
🙃🙄🙄🤣🤣🤣
Blanche was mentally ill yes she had skyzophrenia, her brother and mother were also mentally ill too , her relation with her mom was making her go more crazy too she talked about how she wanted to be a nun ect she started to skip a meal and 2 and more , she needed something to get out of this toxicity , but her door was not locked she wanted to stay in that Lil cave she called it she felt safe , she was on depression but her mom was depressed too so she didn't raised Blanche with love and support , Blanche and her mom had a terrible relationship , she couldn't take care of herself anymore too weak by loosing weight the maids were there, her parents were complitly lost , Blanche wasn't locked by her mom because of a man , there s a book with the real story in details.
Wow a woman who wanted love instead of money. You dont see that to often nowadays.
This is of course all levels of wrong, I do however think that mental illness was in part at play here. She was diagnosed with schizophrenia, I’m pretty sure that is not an acquired illness. It was a different time, and things like mental illness were not diagnosed or handled correctly and kindly. Sad indeed…
This is one of these cheap ass excuses for a documentary. One person endlessly babbling on and a few photos. Whar...whar wharrrrr.....🤨😝🦘
