Hey there, DETECTIVES! DETECTIVE WRITER here to tell you all about an unsolved crime, the case of Laetitia Toureaux.
Laetitia Nourrissat Toureaux was born in Oyace on September 11th, 1907. On May 16th, 1937, Toureaux entered an empty Paris Metro carriage and less than 90 seconds later, she was found murdered at the next stop in Porte Dorée. She was stabbed to death.
What makes the case interesting is that after police investigations, it was discovered that Toureaux had led a double life: she was from Italy but her whole family relocated to France. During the day, she worked in a factory but at night, she was a dancer in a dance hall, had various lovers, and frequently visited the Italian Embassy. It was later revealed she was a spy and was hired to gain access to La Cagoule, a far-right terrorist group. Her case was later dropped two years later, due to the beginning of World War II. To this day, her murder remains unsolved.
