A resident of Jemeppe-sur-Meuse was sentenced Friday by the Liège criminal court to a 12-year prison sentence as well as being made available to the court for the enforcement of sentences for a period of 12 years for rapes, attacks on sexual integrity and illegal possession of images of naked minors. The defendant, 44 years old, was employed by the City of Liège as a school supervisor.
The events took place over a period of 20 years. They were revealed in 2023. A lady had spotted that the defendant was offering packs of photos of naked children online. The mother of a schoolgirl denounced a forced kiss on a child the same year, but the employer did not react.
The man worked as a supervisor in various schools and nurseries in the City of Liège. He also worked as a caretaker and holiday camp entertainer.
A search of the defendant’s home revealed the extent of the facts. The man collected photos of naked children and sexual assaults on minors. No less than 800,000 files were discovered on his computer equipment.
Investigators also discovered writings in which he said he wanted to look like Marc Dutroux and said he wanted to kidnap children to rape and kill them in order to possess their bodies forever.
The defendant was also a collector of panties, stolen from little girls for masturbating. He is also accused of rapes committed within his family circle.
The court declared all the charges established and sentenced the defendant to a 12-year prison sentence as well as a 12-year sentence enforcement court.
