Diksmuide“When he’s not drinking, he’s someone you can have great conversations with. When he has drunk, his stoppers blow. ” The family and friends of William De Bondt (53), who is on trial in Bruges for the murder of his partner Isabelle Deschodt in Diksmuide, described the accused as a human with two faces.
