By the AFREEQUE newsroom, based on L’essentiel
Christine Villemin’s lawyer is seeking the conviction of former journalist Marie-France Lefèvre-Bezzina over accusations published in 2025 against the mother of Grégory, who was murdered in 1984. The court is due to deliver its decision on 7 December, after examining statements posted in a public Facebook group, according to AFP.
Christine Villemin’s lawyer called on Monday for former journalist Marie-France Lefèvre-Bezzina to be convicted for supporting on social media the theory that Grégory Villemin’s mother had killed her son. Grégory Villemin was murdered in 1984, aged four, in a criminal case that remains unsolved, according to AFP.
In a public Facebook group devoted to the case, Marie-France Lefèvre-Bezzina had notably claimed in 2025 that the voice of the ‘raven’ who terrorised the Villemin family was Christine Villemin’s. The court is due to deliver its ruling on 7 December, AFP reports.
