In Clessé (Saône-et-Loire), flowers are placed on a fence in memory of Emma, a 14-year-old teenager. His body was found on a dirt road, just behind an elementary school. On his body are numerous traces of violence as well as a knife planted at the level of the neck. The driver of a bus made this macabre discovery, followed by a baker who was doing his rounds this morning of Thursday June 9 at 6:40 a.m. “For him, it was something very hard. He told me that he cried all the way back, thinking very hard of our two daughters”, recount Delphine, the baker’s wife, very moved.
The village school did not open this morning. Many people knew the girl. Last night, Emma found her boyfriend as usual in the village. The 14-year-old was arrested and after being taken into custody, he quickly confessed to his crime. “He recognizes that he has armed himself with a knife (…). After talking with her for a few moments, (he) stabbed her three times in the neck”, declares Éric Jallet, the public prosecutor of Mâcon (Saône-et-Loire). The young man had already made threatening remarks towards his girlfriend.
