I remember watching a program about this on UK television years ago. A question asked of one off Lucan's friends was, "If he came to you, would you help him escape the country". Their answer was, yes. These so called honorable lords and ladies still have a medieval mentality that laws don't apply to them. The only laws they will ever comply too, are those that suit them.

[@Vickiehou]

I believe his friends helped him escape and kept financing him in some ways.

[@FigaroHey]

Why do people blacken the medieval period by using that word to describe anything evil? The medieval period wasn't any more evil than any other period, and it was a lot less bloody and murderous and produced greater art and architecture than the past 100 years.

Gambling and driving fast cars is one thing , but murder is “beyond the pale”. I must be odd, I look at a wastrel like that and think, he has no close family, he could loose all his money in one hand, he has no goals except to party, and no long term relationships or signifcant other. He also, apparently, lives beyond his means, and likes women that look terribly young. The fact that he couldn’t get a wife from “ his own class” says a lot about how he was viewed by others .

[@laurelgirard8475]

A woman recently attacked has a right to “ rant and rave” . She also probably has a head injury. I hate how male cops characterize female victims. I ‘m sure the cover up began immediately. He was in too much shock to talk on the phone, but he called around to find people to help him.

What an idiot of a man , living such a beautiful life and not beeing able to appreciate it , trying to " appear " richer than he was" his friends seems totally obliterated of the fact that he killed a totally innocent person , his wife was also totally innocent, hos socalled friends should declare him persona non grata at once , before he believes he can gain money by killing them of as well . 44:21

There is no way that Lord Lucan committed suicide by jumping from the ferry halfway across the channel!

[@kimberlysheridan5530]

It's been awhile since this was uploaded. A man like tall, strong Lord Lucan, whose superficial charm hid a beastlie inner nature, who could beat a small woman to a pulp, is a coward. He threw himself into the channel rather than face the irreparable loss of stature. He was a coward.

[@athenaf8278]

She was horribly ABUSED and she was the one who was caring for the family. Her children are absolutely despicable for not standing by her after they grew up.

[@amandaslade9072]

Agree

[@tammylewis2408]

Lady Lucan died from suicide; she was very lonely, her kids not speaking to her, plus having health issues such as Parkinson's, it became too much for her. As for her children, they were poisoned by their aunt, who took care of them, saying that it was their mother's fault, and believed her, basically "alienation of affection". I truly hope she didn't leave the kids anything in her will, that she left everything to charities and/or a few friends who stood by her; that would be the best revenge.

[@rebekahcessna9450]

How are children supposed to inherently know that what the adults that are responsible for their care and well-being are saying is false. That is how values, beliefs and traditions are passed to children. Look at the adults who are convinced the most ludicrous things are true despite evidence and logic plainly say otherwise like the Q conspiracy, the Clintons running a sex traffic of children in the basement of a pizza restaurant in Washington when the restaurant did not even have a basement? Or that all Palestinians are terrorists, that bombing hospitals and elementary schools and churches and cutting off all medical aid, access to food and water is necessary to protect the safety of a near superpower with a military backed by the strongest military power in the world. How are little children who had been through horrific trauma at a very young age, one awoke and saw the father doing something to mother. They were left alone as she ran for help. Do you think they somehow didn’t notice the blood spatters all over the walls and floors, the noise, the screams, the sounds of struggle? Then when “rescued” by relatives taken to a safe place tells you how things went down for your entire childhood, verified by other relatives and adults, probably kept away from their mother and if they did see her, she was so broken and damaged, had no voice or no advocate and you expect these children to just “know” the truth and see it? I am a victim of Parental Alienation and I cry every day for past 5 years over it and no matter what I say or do gets twisted by the people they are with. But I don’t want revenge against them! Even if they become middle aged. That would be really insane.

I'll pray for this lady:otherwise who else will do it? She had the most miserable life anybody could imagine.

[@ebonypenguin2899]

Did Lucan plan to murder his wife, somehow pass it off as a natural death, and by default, regain custody of the children. Seems like a half-baked, half-cocked plan to me 🙄. Even if he did successfully disappear and lived a comfortable life as a refuge from justice, he (presumably) never got to see his children again. Doesn't seem like much of a win to me. R.I.P. Sandra.

[@Anthony-ck2dc]

I remember this crime from 1974 only because I remember a PAUL McCARTNEY interview from the mid seventies in which Paul kept saying "LORD LUCAN IS MISSING" for a laugh during the interview........

[@moviemonster2083]

No way would Lucan have boarded a public ferry risking exposure. He had his own boat, probably 'borrowed' from his friends, from which he had hoped to dump the body of his killed wife, but now, he used it for his own self-murder. I use that term because what Lucan did was NOT a suicide; he killed himself to avoid greater justice, it was to avoid something that to him would have been worse: total exposure as a fraud and a wife-killer (nobody cared about the nanny, sad to say), and more importantly, a failure at both. And I don't believe for a minute those 'sightings', that's a story from Victorian literature. He was a miserable excuse for a human being and deserved his fate. Sandra, however, didn't deserve hers. I suppose the lesson is not to get involved in others' messy divorces, in any way, even by way of being employed by someone going through one.

[@hensonlaura]

He was a narcissist. He wouldn't have killed himself because that would mean he gave up and he was wrong! Narcissists are NEVER wrong. He was on the run for years until he died. That is why he was such a good gambler.

Interesting. I too think he was a narcissist --of the Grandiose kind. Also, a psychopath. Which to me, suggests he didn't give a s*** about his kids back home, families he destroyed, he was a sharp con-artist. I wonder if he didn't care at all whether or not it appeared he gave up. He started a new life somewhere else, continuing the cycle. Probably relaxing and dying of old age 🤬 Side note; Hitler was a Narcissist (at his "best") and he gave up and did it the cowardly way.

@stopthecrazyguy9948 As I understand it, any known relatives DNA can now be used to pinpoint or trace familial DNA to a very narrow percentage rate. This is how so many cold cases are now being solved, long after the crimes were committed. Even if the perpetrators DNA isn’t in the database, if someone related has DNA in the database that is a close match, they can now trace the unknown DNA and narrow it down pretty precisely. Also, now with so many people tracing family trees with home DNA kits, the DNA database has grown considerably compared to the time when criminals mainly made up the database.

It breaks my heart to hear some of these childhood stories of troubled souls that turn into criminals. It is incredible how many of these bad situations could probably be prevented if mothers would focus on just mothering their young children. So much crime and heartache couldbe avoided if children got the nurturing they NEEDED from their mother. I say this as a mother who noticed her 5 year old son's behavior and said, wow, that kid is gonna have some serious mommy issues one day. Then I realized, "DUCK, *I* am this kid's mother; *I* am the reason he could have mommy issues when he grows up. Damn, I had better do something about that!" And so I have.

All his friends do. They helped him flee and protect him. To this very day they defend him against the wife that he battered and abused, by feeding into his evil, narcissistic, manipulative narrative that she was the one who wasn’t good in the head. The documentary is such a must watch, because it shows perfectly how it wasn’t just him, his aristocratic circle helped him gaslit and destroy her, once she started opening up about the abuse. They did that by trying to make her seem mentally unwell because she dared to open up about it to someone (one of his female friends) whom she mistook for being her friend also, big mistake. One of them (his gambling mate) even went as far as helping him do things like admit her against her will, simply because she once dared confront one of his mistresses in public. Theirs is one filthy world. I was beyond grossed out by this female who kept defending him against his battered abused wife, in the documentary. That evil, sexist turd had obviously been his mistress, or one of the many anyway; because they all also sleep with each other like it’s nothing, the promiscuous farts. Lady Collin Campbell, who is another sexist woman hater, to this very day says that she thinks Lady Lucan killed the nanny, like wtf. “Everyone in our circle does” she repugnantly ascertains, while ALL the circumstantial evidence plus Lucan’s own despicable behavior in of itself his entire life, do ALL more than confirm that it was obviously him. Despicable lot all of them! They will all end up in purgatory, it exists and it’s for shadow trolls like them. They have even managed to play Lady Lucan’s children against her, their last act of aggression and abuse against her. Putrid people, if one can call them “people” at all, that is. There is a reason why Lord Spencer, Diana’s brother, does not have a relationship with any of his so called “society” peers and has always made a point out of choosing his wives from outside of it. The latest one is even American. As far away from the sick, demented, evil lot as possible is where he wants to be, and I say good for him.

Great-great-grandfather. The charge of the Light Brigade was in 1854 and that lord Lucan was the 3rd of the title (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Bingham,_3rd_Earl_of_Lucan), this one here is the 7th (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Bingham,_7th_Earl_of_Lucan).

I think it was his grandfather. Inherited idiocy

I believe in this case it is not a conspiracy theory because it has always been the case that the aristocrats are very well connected. I'm fully convinced that he was aided in disappearing because it is quite impossible for the police not to have followed the money trail

Those 2 fisherman who saw him jump off the Ferry halfway across to wherever, cant be right as others would have seen him surely. It was a ferry. I dont believe this theory at all. Just doesnt seem plausable.

People featured on this show are off the hook- the “criminologist “ who falsely states that PDiana was killed because of the drunk chauffeur and then the lady who laughs when she says that LLucan made a mistake by killing the wrong woman 🤦‍♀️ You’d be better off getting expert advice from your local pub goers

Put your hearing aid in then, or use the subtitles. I heard it all perfectly well

If they ever make a big budget movie about Lord Lucan I hope they will cast Brad Pitt in the lead role because I think Brad Pitt resembles Lord Lucan and he's an actor that could play the role in a stellar manner.

[@ThanaBrunges-mx7ji]

Maybe he got braces to create a gap in his front teeth and came back as Freddy Mercury? 😅

So the parents never did any parenting. Just shuffled the kids continuously from boarding school to an heiress. The mother sees that he isn't like the other kids. This is a result of very bad parenting and emotional neglect will result in sociopathic adults. I saw a documentary of his poor wife it was very tragic

[@totmirmis]

you are describing the childhood of most of the uk´s upper class especially in those days : raised by nannies and shuffeled off to boarding schools. Bad thins happen at those schools toodesribing

I disagree …he tried to kill their mother

[@jedgrahek1426]

The whole "Diana Conspiracy Theory as example of stupid human nature" section was so tiresome and propagandistic. Honestly, if mainstream media didn't constantly go out of its way to disparage, attack, and use every trick in the book to undermine or silence rational lines of inquiry about uncertain events, I would be less inclined to suspicion that there is more to any given controversial story, and less motivated to seek out as much independent information and journalism as possible about such events. But hey, that's the point, doesn't matter how obvious the propaganda is to some, as long as it works as intended on the majority even paying attention, and then the huge majority who merely want to fit in with perceived normality.
