Description

A murder in the heart of the Papacy. Giovanni Borgia, the Duke of Gandía, was found in the Tiber with a fortune in gold untouched. The evidence points not to robbery, but to assassination. Join The Evidence Vault as we investigate the prime suspects in this infamous case: his fiercely ambitious brother Cesare Borgia, his wronged brother Jofre Borgia, and the revenge-seeking Orsini noble family. Why did Pope Alexander VI halt the investigation after only one week? Uncover the treacherous political secrets and forensic clues of the most powerful and corrupt family in Renaissance history. 🪙If you Love this Story!
