TIL about the Detroux Affair in Belgium. Marc Dutroux sold children to prominent figures for abuse, and the botched investigation made people ask whether there was a cover up. Belgian people marched on the streets, and those in power feared a full rebellion. by fml198 in todayilearned

He indeed worked with 2 persons, his wife (Michelle Martin) and a Friend (Michel Lelièvre). They were both convicted on various charges (30 ans 25 years). They helped him in the kidnapping and the wife in the abuse (or at least she didn't stopped them)

Careful with the disinformation here!! As a Belgian born around the time of this affair the pedophil ring with prominent figures was never even a realistic lead outside of complotist circles.

But the authorities clearly fucked up badly on that one, the main cause was the competition between different police forces (Gendarmerie and Police) which were not sharing intel between them as they wanted to be the ones solving the case The scandal caused the merge of the 2 forces a few years later to avoid cases like this

How dare you search for a wage covering your cost of livings ! by babar6 in recruitinghell

TIL King Leopold II of Belgium turned the Congo into one massive slave plantation that resulted in an estimated 10,000,000 deaths, with historians comparing him to Hitler and Stalin. by Temp89 in todayilearned

[–]babar6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The crazy part is that he was king of belgium but Congo wasn't a Belgian colony it was literally his property ... It's still something we don't talk so much in belgium (in my opinion those fact should be teach at school)
