Transcript
00:00In 2011, a French count told everyone his family had entered witness protection.
00:04He was lying.
00:05Xavier Dupont de Ligonès had actually murdered his wife and four children.
00:09For weeks before the killings, he methodically planned every detail.
00:13He bought a silencer.
00:14He researched how to dispose of bodies.
00:16Then he sent fake letters to his children's schools and his wife's employer, claiming
00:20they were entering a government protection program due to his alleged work in drug enforcement.
00:25Neighbors started noticing strange smells coming from the property.
00:28Odd sounds at night.
00:30When police finally searched the house, they found five bodies buried under the back terrace.
00:34But Xavier had vanished completely.
00:37He's been spotted across Europe, Prague, Scotland, the French Riviera.
00:41Every lead goes nowhere.
00:43Investigators believe he either killed himself in remote mountains or assumed a new identity
00:47with help from unknown accomplices.
00:49After more than a decade, this aristocrat-turned-family-annihilator remains one of Europe's most wanted fugitives.
00:55The question isn't just where he is, it's how someone disappears this completely.
