Marc Dutroux was born in Belgium on November 6th, 1956, and he’s quite possibly the worst man we’ve talked about on this podcast. He kidnapped, raped, tortured, and killed so so so many girls over the years, and most people believed that he was part of a pedophile network that operated with members of the government high ranking officials. Among the girls he abducted, 12 year old Sabine Dardenne was taken while cycling to school. She survived everything he did to her, and wrote a book about what it was like in captivity. It was titled: J'avais 12 ans, j'ai pris mon vélo et je suis partie à l'école. In the UK it was called I choose to live. This case was another one that was really hard to get through, so if you need to take breaks, please do. Take care of your own mental health first, and we’ll see you soon!

Stay safe out there.

With love, Saaniya and Maddie x
