Part of the greatness of this channel, is the words used here! Truly different from others who cover old cases, in keeping with the language of that era. Beautiful actually. Love it.❤
So many of these stories are about people never satisfied with who they are with and what they have, always wanting more, envious. This is just another example. Well narrated, very detailed and we know every character's story to its ending. Thank you.
I enjoyed the fact how both women abandoned him like yesterday's trash. Obsession is a mighty potent addiction in humans. I believe he poisoned his housekeeper. Too bad he didn't get caught for that one. Makes me wonder what his family thought of his crime. I know his sister testified against him, but the mother? Other siblings? Great narration as usual BC.
I believe that he killed the second lady. He was considered to no longer be a threat to society, but it was like at the end of A Clockwork Orange, when he said, "I was cured all right".
What an amazing case that was clearly well researched. There is plenty of grief to go around but I feel particularly sad for his dear, sweet wife. What she had to endure because of Bertrand is horrible. I always wonder what happened to the children in cases like these. Thanks so much. Another story of how selfish, obsessed people can destroy all the innocent people around them.
Poor Mrs Bertrand. Must have been an awful life for her stuck in the middle of that nightmare. Glad she moved away & started a new life for herself & the children
This feels special, y'all; for once my schedule was different in a way that made me able to watch earlier instead of later. Brief Case time, on time, lol
I am rewatching this as I usually do every episode of Brief Case! There's just no other channel like this, and he never lets me down when I'm looking forward to my Monday evening video!
8:15 pm in West. Australia. A great time to watch a new Brief Case episode because MAFS (Married At First Sight) is on TV.. (a dreadful reality show where the premise seems to be who can cry the most!)
Great job B.C....in this life simple minded people do simple minded things but so often those simple minded things lead to devastating consequences...not only did he ruin his own life but also the lives of others 😞
As soon as I open my phone Monday morning (6:38am California) I am scrolling to click on that Brief Case notification! Always!!! I missed commenting to thank you last week I think, because of a horrible migraine. But I watched it!! And I'll give you good sir, double thanks this week to catch up. Your content always makes my day! Thank you x2!! 🙏🖤✌️
Bc I have been checking every half hour for this upload. Henry was one obsessed individual, a very self-destructive persona to live. A huge amount of information to cover in a short period of time. As Crimey stated, awesome illustrations uploaded. Great narration, this one has to be in your top Ten.
Thanks Rick, I have thought of launching a compilation of my top 3 videos (my 3 favourites), I would do it for my 5 year anniversary in May, problem is I have about 15 favourites, one I know I really like but the other 2 will be difficult to choose
Im always astonished by how successful people choose to ruin their lives and the lengths they will go to in order to ensure that said ruination is complete. 🙄🤦🏼♀️
How I love your episodes! This is another one that gives a glimpse of how things were back then with human obsession! Sometimes, it ends in someone's death. Thank you, Brief Case for this fascinating case!! You're definitely the Best!!!!
There was nothing being posted yesterday, and what was on my notifications was something I've already seen on another channel, or I already knew more than I wanted to about it. So, I'm glad to see one of my top favorites posting early this morning. Thank you 😊✌️❤️
24 hours later (after a crazy day yesterday) and I'm finally able to watch this video. You never disappoint with your content. You always come up with these fascinating cases. This one just goes to show when someone develops an obsession with another person, it never ends well.
@@BriefCaseOfficial yes I did. You do an awesome job with your videos, I look forward to Mondays at 6am (that's the time they show up here), and always enjoy watching them.
Brief Case is my favorite segment, extremely well put together. the narrating is world class ! Great to view some Australian cases, as l live near Melbourne. Victoria. Many thanks.
Oh nice a new one for me to watch after a horrendous day, im mad about these videos 💜🖤💜 i understand they are all sad stories but its still so interesting to learn about how they operated in the past. Thanks BC 💜
Yes! I'm here EARLY. Brief Case THANK YOU for daily calming my nerves with your soothing voice telling me crimes of the past 😂🤣 you have entertained me for so long now. Hope you see this! Continued success! Thank you for all your hard work. Love from California, U.S.A.
No, my friend. The Lippschitz family did not change their name to Bertrand because "it was easier to pronounce." They changed it because anyone living in an English-speaking country and sporting a name with "schitz" in it, is begging to be mocked straight into madness. Growing up in New York City, which has larger Jewish population than the State of Israel, my friends and I would search the Yellow Pages for Lippschitzes to call. As soon as someone answered, we'd shout, "If you're Lippschitz, my ass talks!" Yes, I know we're all going to hell. At least we'll get to meet some of your fascinating subjects there.
Been awhile since I've made comments. I've been watching you're videos, ported onto our t.v. and it's complex to write comments. They're very enjoyable to watch, bits of history that might have an affect on current events. Thank-you for these incredible stories. I doubt we'd ever hear them anywhere else. Where do you find them? Anyway, thanks. Stay safe. And please keep them coming.🤗
you can go to your local public library or city archives and pull up criminal cases. I could see looking for "murder" from a specific year and finding any that catch your eye. Then finding birth records and facts about the era like "impossible to travel by steam ship all the way to Australia" and bring life to the story.
@@danktankdragkings7117 Library, maybe. Depends on its size, etc. City archives are harder to access from a distance and would probably cost a lot from a distance. But thank you. That's a good way to start.
Nothing like watching Brief Case on a cold winter's day in NY-making all my problems seem so privileged-including sans Heroin In that day! Thank you. And, 🙏 if course . JOY!
He had a lot of hubris to put all this in a diary. I doubt he reoffended, he only murdered the first gentleman because of his wife. It would be interesting to know the rest of the story with Ellen, if she continued to seek other men after she remarried. Thanks BC as always!❤
Dear Briefcase, very good program. Henry louis Bertrand started out on the right track in the beginning, however, instead of being a loyal father and husband he detoured. Seamed he lost his focus which should have been on his family rather than the other women, Henry is not all to blame though. His mistress should not have allowed the affair. Should have stopped it from the beginning. They both murdered that man . Henrys mistress also should have gone to jail. For she was involved as well. Perhaps if she had been loyal and faithful to her husband, he would not have drunk so much , or hit her. Great Job Briefcase. Awesome.
I'm surprised that Mrs. Kinder wasn't convicted with Henry. If he's journaling his life, him convincing her to poison her husband, would've written down. He seemed to have written everything else down.
If they did look into the housekeepers death and saw no evidence of foul play it’s probably accurate. I’m relatively certain by that time medical examiners were able to test for poisons.
Just want to take the time to thank you, for your time and efforts. Incredible stories from the past! Your english accent makes it even better to listen to. Wish good week ahead Brief Case
Hello BC. Always my favourite. Another great video, but I admit Im greedy! I need more B.C. Will you ever do patreon? Perhaps you don't have the time, but you're so good at this. I'd be a member in a heartbeat. Anyway, thank you yet again. Gratitude plus 🙏🏼

The Mad Dentist. He was released from prison as he was deemed to not be a danger to society, then immediately deported from that society to the one in England. Then of course he was no danger to society in Australia.
Although gold was discovered in Bathurst, the gold rush started in Bendigo Victoria as that's where all the gold was, a minuscule amount of gold was in Bathurst compared to Bendigo and everyone flocked to Bendigo. I know that had literally nothing to do with this story, but thought I'd correct that interesting little fact.
Another brilliant case
Made my Monday night all your stories are amazing BC
Prayers for your continued recovery. I admire your courage. ❤ 🎉 😊
I was a heroin addict for 12 years. I’m 32 now n your videos have been instrumental in my recovery. Thank u I’ve been clean since oct 22 xx
So pleased to learn you are now all on the road to recovery, take care, I really hope everything is good for you in 2023
Hang in there sister. 👍🌹💗
