“Hi it’s Leo, what does it say?”

This Monday, April 1, many questions are still being asked after the death of Émile, confirmed by the discovery of the little boy’s bones on Saturday. The search resumes and, although the gendarmes’ investigation has clearly accelerated, they continue to work on two hypotheses: the accident and the criminal trail.

Since Monday morning in Germany, it is possible to buy and smoke cannabis without hiding. Recreational cannabis is legalized for those over 18 who have resided in Germany for more than six months. The first-price gram of cannabis will be sold between 3 and 4 euros, half the price on the black market.

And then it was an early April Fool’s joke. Last Wednesday, rapper Alkpote announced a tour of free concerts in pharmacies. Sunday evening, he published a new video to reveal his hoax intended to remind people that condoms are free in pharmacies for those under 26.
