Precedent to the Praslin affair described in 18th century Aix murder
The article recounts the Aix affair where President Entrecasteaux was accused of murdering Madame de Entrecasteaux after a private salon at the Marquis de Galleret. A key clue was a missing razor. Despite a public trial, Entrecasteaux fled, was pursued, and died in Lisbon while his case was tried in absence. The piece connects the event to the Duchess de Praslin case as a long-echoed aristocratic scandal.
