A violent crime against a young schoolgirl in a small Burgundy town turns France upside down. A 14-year-old schoolboy has confessed to stabbing his girlfriend, the same age, while they were out on a night out with great violence and intent, prosecutor Éric Jallet said Thursday evening in Mâcon.
With a knife in her neck, a woman discovered the lifeless girl in the morning on a path behind the mayor’s office in the 900 inhabitants municipality of Clessé. The student had dozens of stab wounds and her nose was smashed. The classmate was arrested in high school and is incarcerated.
Friends didn’t take guys seriously
The parents last saw their daughter at night before going to sleep, she was happy as always. The public prosecutor said that she only realized in the morning that she was not at home. The questioning of classmates quickly pointed the investigators to the 14-year-old, with whom the girl was recently in a relationship after a break. The boy said he wanted to kill the girl, but friends said it was not taken seriously.
According to Jallet, the two often met outside in the community between midnight and 4 a.m.
Stabbed three times in the neck
The boy confessed in custody that he had committed the crime on purpose and that he had made an appointment with the girl, as in the previous days, the prosecutor explained. After a conversation, he suddenly stabbed the student three times in the neck with a knife he had with him. When she tried to flee, he caught up with her and killed her. A forensic doctor found cuts and scratches on the boy’s hands. It is not yet known what drove him to do what he did.
