Nazi Murder Mysteries

S01E02: The Duke Of Windsor

When Edward VIII, the former wayward King of Great Britain was sent by the British establishment to see out the war in as Governor of the Bahamas, it was hoped that he would refrain from causing any further embarrassment to the Royal family. But in 1943, the mysterious murder of one of the wealthiest men in the British empire, Sir Harry Oakes, sparked a chain of events that have led many to believe that the Duke of Windsor had not learned from his mistakes. This episode looks at the persistent rumours accusing the Duke of having been complicit in illegal financial schemes involving laundering Nazi money and influencing the outcome of a murder trial.
