The Princes in the Tower | Murdered or Survived

The mystery of the Princes in the Tower. Will we ever know what happened to Edward V and his younger brother Richard, Duke of York? The princes, who were 12 and 9 years old at the time of their disappearance, were taken into custody at the Tower of London by their uncle, the future Richard III, after the sudden death of their father King Edward IV. The boys disappeared from the Tower in the autumn of 1483. Speculation over their fate remains to this day and many questions remain unanswered. Murdered or survived? What do you think?
