The Monster of Belgium: Marc Dutroux and the Crimes That Shook a Nation

Marc Dutroux is one of the most reviled criminals in modern European history. A convicted child murderer and serial predator, Dutroux’s crimes in the mid-1990s horrified the world—and shattered public trust in the Belgian justice system.

In this video, we uncover the dark story of Dutroux’s kidnappings, the harrowing ordeal of his young victims, and the chilling failures of law enforcement that allowed a convicted predator to strike again. You’ll learn how the abductions of Julie Lejeune, Mélissa Russo, An Marchal, Eefje Lambrecks, Sabine Dardenne, and Laetitia Delhez turned into one of the most explosive criminal cases in Belgian history.

We’ll also explore the infamous White March, where over 300,000 citizens protested against institutional failure, and how this led to sweeping reforms in the Belgian police system.

This is not just the story of a monster—it’s the story of a nation demanding justice.
