372 - Gilles de Rais: Medieval Monster or Witch-Hunt Victim?

Headed to 15th century to explore the life of a man who may have been the wealthiest noble in all of France at one point, and commander of France's military - Gilles de Rais. Was this contemporary of Joan of Arc also a demon-worshipper child killer?  He was put to death for, among other crimes, confessing to killing 140 children in the most heinous of ways. Did he really do all that he was accused of? Or was he another victim of a medieval witch hunt? Nice blend of true crime and. history today.
