However, it was a forensic report that confirmed the identity of the victim. This also allowed investigators to reject the criminal thesis, since the body showed no signs of violence, reports the Trois-Rivières police in a press release.
The file will therefore be forwarded to the coroner’s office for an investigation into the causes and circumstances of the death.
Recall that more than six months have passed since the disappearance of the family man on November 26, 2022, after a trip to the Zénob café-bar in downtown Trois-Rivières.
