"For having crossed paths with Michel Fourniret, one has the feeling that humanity had left its character and that there was only the desire to do harm", comments Didier Seban. "Eric Mouzin [Estelle's father,

] often said: 'I don't expect anything from Monique Olivier [the killer's ex-wife,

], nothing from Michel Fourniret, but everything from justice", continues the 'lawyer. "I think this is the feeling that needs to stay."

In the case of Estelle Mouzin, this means that "the work must continue" to find the body of the girl, who disappeared in Guermantes in 2003. But beyond that, Fourniret's death "leaves many other families in the background. silence, because there were other murders, other crimes on which he will not have to explain himself ", laments Didier Seban.
