Since his disappearance, Thursday, October 8, 2015, his relatives had never believed either in a voluntary “evaporation” and even less in suicide. No doubt due, in particular, to the birth of her twins a few weeks earlier. More worrying still, Morgan Mercier, 28, had invoked, to justify his departure from the home of Septèmes-les-Vallons at 4 am, the replacement of a friend in the port of Port-de-Bouc where he was the boatman. .
Except that quickly the investigators were confirmed that this explanation did not hold water. The fears of the family of the deceased were to be reinforced by the discovery of his abandoned and locked car, three days later, on Boulevard Lombard (15th) and by the discovery, the following summer, of his body in the massif. of the Star. The autopsy quickly indicated that Morgan Mercier had been shot dead.
Since then, the investigations for “organized murder” by the judicial police of Marseille and the Central Office for the Suppression of Violence against Persons (ORCVP) have stalled.
But on Friday, new research was carried out on the area, deforested by the National Forestry Office, where his corpse was found. Bones of the victim were still found there.
