A “major evolution” in a cold case. This Wednesday, Éric Foray’s lawyer, who disappeared in September 2016 in the Drôme while going shopping, told BFMTV that his skull had been found in the Vercors.
Warned on Tuesday, Régis Pique, his companion, confided on our antenna that this revelation had caused him a “physical collapse”, he who has moved heaven and earth for more than six years to find the trace of Éric Foray.
“I know how much we could love each other and that’s why I fought until today. At least it’s moving”, he confided on our antenna, even if the parquet floor of Valence did not give him more precision on the discovery of the skull.
The hope of a key witness
In this case, Régis Pique has a clear conviction: “He was hurt.”
Thanks to the discovery, the investigation can resume its course. “By an additional indictment dated January 3, 2023, the Valence public prosecutor’s office extended the referral to the investigating judge to the qualification of murder, so that he now continues to elucidate the circumstances, if any, criminal of the death “, said the prosecutor of Valencia.
