    The Fualdès affair, along with the Peytel affair, was one of the first major sensational news stories to captivate the 19th century. It is true that political considerations were intertwined with it, since the murdered man was accused of being a Bonapartist, while his assailants were, on the contrary, part of the royalist movement, and the first trial that condemned them to death was overturned at the end of 1817. Victor Hugo mentions it in chapter 169 of Les Misérables, and Balzac also alludes to it. A very meticulous account of the events.
