Biography[edit | edit source]
In 1768, Bouché's failing business was being threatened by the de Grandpré company. In response, he had town criers distribute handbills that slandered the de Grandpré's reputation, in the hopes that people would buy his tea rather than their coffee.[1] This caused Aveline de Grandpré to travel to his warehouse, where she demanded he put a stop to his activities and publicly apologize.[2]
Going bankrupt soon after, Bouché was embittered by this occurrence and, in 1771, hired a notorious mercenary captain to kidnap and kill Aveline.[3] Said plan failed however, with Aveline escaping her captors and tracking down those responsible. Once she learned Bouché had been behind it all along, she went to his warehouse, where she killed him.[4]
