The Italian Coin That Undid a Twenty-Year Swindle
This episode delves into the extraordinary case of Thérèse Humbert, a woman who orchestrated a twenty-year swindle within the French legal system. It explores how she maintained her elaborate fiction and the powerful figures who enabled her deception.
Case: The Humbert Swindle
Person: Thérèse Humbert
Date: 1902 (safe opening)
Location: Paris, France
Period: Late 19th to early 20th century
- Thérèse Daurignac, born in 1856, learned the power of false legitimacy from her father, who spent his life claiming to be a secret noble.
- As a girl, Thérèse persuaded friends to pool their jewelry to create an illusion of collective wealth, a tactic she later scaled up.
- In 1879, she married Frédéric Humbert, son of a powerful legal mind, who was aware of her fabricated story before their marriage.
- Thérèse invented an American millionaire, Robert Henry Henry, and a dramatic train rescue to explain her supposed inheritance.
- Her brothers played the roles of Henry's nephews, appearing in courtrooms for years to maintain the illusion of a contested will.
