483: Murder in Monaco
True Crime Obsessed
Ted Maher: Hiring and Background
Hosts introduce Ted Maher, his claimed Green Beret and nurse credentials, and how he was hired by Safra.
On December 3, 1999, billionaire Edmond Safra and his nurse Vivian Torrente died in a house fire in his 10,000-square-foot Monaco loft. The circumstances are... insane. Like, in the most secure country in the world, surrounded at all times by a team of private bodyguards, how could this have happened? Welp, turns out, there's lots of ways. Was it the Russian mafia who was, like, mad, because, like mafia? Was it his private American nurse who'd been looking for a payout? Was it his wife who stood to inherit billions? OR WAS IT AN EPIC, DISASTEROUS, COMPLETELY AVOIDABLE ACCIDENT THAT EVEN WHEN EXPLAINED THE STUPIDITY IS SO ENRAGING YOU'LL FIND YOURSLEF LEVITATING OFF YOUR CHAIR? Sorry for yelling. Or was it all of thee above? Come untangle it with us, won't you?
