“The Soap Maker of Correggio: The Twisted Crimes of Leonarda Cianciulli”
This week on Grinding True Crime, Todd Fox is joined by Matty Matt and Tye Justice for a deep dive into one of the most disturbing cases in Italian criminal history — the story of Leonarda Cianciulli, infamously known as the “Soap Maker of Correggio.” Driven by superstition, fear, and a warped sense of maternal protection, Cianciulli believed human sacrifice would keep her son safe during wartime. What followed was a series of calculated murders that shocked Italy — and left behind details so chilling they’re almost unbelievable. The crew breaks down: The psychological profile of Leonarda Cianciulli How superstition and trauma fueled her actions The gruesome details of the crimes The investigation and trial Whether this was insanity, manipulation, or pure evil And how this case still fascinates true crime audiences today Was she mentally ill? A master manipulator? Or something even darker? Todd, Matty Matt, and Tye Justice unpack the facts, the myths, and the legacy of one of history’s most infamous female serial killers. Listener discretion strongly advised.
