France shipped women from the brothels and prisons to the colonies in the 1720s, sending them to Ursulines nuns for 'correction'. Instead, many hung their red lanterns out back of town, and created a thriving red light district.
In the same location, a century later, madams decked in diamonds reigned in 'palaces of sin'. Some were so rich and powerful they committed murder and got off scot free!
Hear the jaw-dropping history of New Orleans you'll never forget!
