    Intellingent man and unstable wife.. not a very good cocktail.

    I like the documentary a lot, okay maybe a little too long and repetitive, but stil very entertaining. Didn't bother me.

    When they started to talk about his wife, the politician wife, I started to understand her personality a little bit more, a veeery unstable woman with a lot of father isssues. I didn't like her sister at all, ... see for yourself.

    Too often they use the power of politicians to blame them inmmediatley, it doens't have to be like that all the times.

    For me the reasonable doubt is really there, with the facts they reported in this documentary.

    A must see for fans of crime documentary.

    Fascinating

    Good crime show, slow pace but the plot makes up for it

    Decent true crime doc

    A decent true crime doc about the death of Veronique under strange circumstances in the hotel she was sharing with her husband. The documentary had good flow, relevant interviews, and a good amount of archival footage. The pace was slow throughout and some topics were touched on more than once.

    Politician kills wife

    The Accused man is a politician, which is a job for trained and experienced people who spin the truth to suit their cause. The evidence that he had a hand in the death of his tragic wife seems to prove this in my eyes. He was jealous, proud of his standing in the eyes of the public, and I believe his ultimate frustration with her decision to have chosen another man drove him to act in a state of rage. Probably a case of manslaughter.

    Meh

    Dull viewing. A tragic story without any significantly vicarious narrative threads. Spare yourself the indulgence of 2.5hrs of viewing you won't get back.
