The food supplies
No signs were found in the apartment on Avenue du Casino on Lake Geneva that would prove the presence of strangers. A ladder leaned against the balcony. The family members would have fired one after the other over a period of about five minutes. Other details that emerged from the beginning were confirmed: the family originally came from France, asi had moved to Montreux in 2016, the younger daughter was not even registered in the local registry office. She and her mother had even moved to Morocco a few years ago. The picture before which the investigators found themselves during the check after the collective suicide was impressive: most of the rooms in the house were crammed with food, neither the parents nor the children had any contact with the outside world, they lived in a kind of hermitage, but in the heart of a city, with very little contact with neighbors.
conspiracy theories
The father would have been obsessed with conspiracy theories, felt controlled, avoided any contact for himself and his family. The tragedy happened when two gendarmes were preparing to go to the family. They had with them an accompanying arrest warrant for the father, issued by the prefecture in connection with the homeraising of one of the two children. The agents were unable to enter the apartment and moments later the five people fell from the balcony. “The gendarmes knocked on the door and heard a voice asking who was there. After they got in touch, they heard no more noise in the apartment,” the note said. The investigation must determine the circumstances and reasons for the drama. It currently seems certain that there was no one in the apartment at the time of the events except for the family, who jumped into the void, said JeanChristophe Sauterel, head of communications for the cantonal police, in an interview with French public radio Rt.
