He was heard three days in a row by a Paris investigating judge.

“I recognize there a being who is no longer there through my fault” : during his last hearing before the justice, the serial killer Michel Fourniret admitted in these terms, at the beginning of March, to have killed Estelle Mouzin, nine year old girl disappeared in 2003 in Seine-et-Marne, without saying where he would have hidden the body. “It’s a heavy burden to bear, but that doesn’t stop you from acknowledging the facts”, he told investigating judge Sabine Kheris, in remarks revealed by Europe 1 and the content of which was confirmed to the AFP by a source close to the file. When the magistrate asked him what the facts were, he said: “to have taken his life. “

Michel Fourniret was heard three days in a row, from March 4 to 6, by the Parisian judge, who had indicted him for “abduction and forcible confinement followed by death” on November 27, after a spectacular reversal of his ex -wife and accomplice, Monique Olivier. She had finally contradicted her alibi for the day of the facts.

This evening of January 9, 2003, Estelle Mouzin had disappeared on her way home from school in Guermantes. His body has never been found.

On March 5, in front of a photo of the young girl, the serial killer, known for his convoluted statements, said: “it is possible that this image upsets me […] and I recognize there a being who is no longer there by my fault “.” The abduction of a being is a sacred dumpling and you are not proud of it“, he added. “I would say that she was not alone but that she had to be with one or more girlfriends”, he said. “I crossed the motorized area and there was a suitable docking”, he continued.

Michel Fourniret, who suffers from memory problems, did not reveal the place where he allegedly hid the body of the young girl, however, asked to be brought to Guermantes. “It would be positive, […] the main thing for me is to see with my mirettes the place where I accosted him and where I brought him in my van “.” The circumstances, what happens next, what happens is in the dustbin “, he said, however. “It is not necessarily a question of blackout, it is rather the fact of having committed serious acts and of wanting to erase them”, however, he said.
