[edit] gang raped or kill then raped ?

the English article say that she has been gang raped.

The French version say that she has been slain, then when she was already dead, they raped her. ("Ses bourreaux, avinés, après l' avoir massacrée, violent son corps, sans vie, devant la foule, sur la voie publique")

So when she was raped... she was still alive or dead ? Froggy helps ;-) 06:03, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

It says her father-in-law finally succeeded in gaining her body and it was interred in his crypt. Her father-in-law duke of Penthièvrewas long dead in 1814 so that last sentence needs to be removed.

[edit] sentiments

What happened to Princess de Lamballe, a gentle and relatively progressive soul (as demonstrated by what she would swear to and what she wouldn't), that horrific end at the hands of a degenerate mob, was always to me, the cautionary tale against reform through violent revolution, where fury over past grievances resided over reason and morality; the victory of the people then forever shadowed with bloodlust and madness in the ages to come. To Killy-the-frog, it was the first, at least in the English books I've read of the subject it was. - T'Sura (2007 March 8th)
