Thanks to Bruno for coming on *Legend Story* to share his account. Bruno de Stabenrath—Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès’s best friend—describes Xavier’s personality as a father of four, shares memories of their time together, and discusses his involvement with a cult. In his view, Xavier is very much alive and could well be hiding in the United States. The Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès case centers on a quintuple murder that took place in Nantes in 2011; the bodies of his wife and their four children were discovered beneath the terrace of their home, while all trace of Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès has since vanished.
