Where are Leslie and Kevin? For more than three months, in the winter of 2021-2022, their loved ones mulled over this question. The couple of 22 and 21 years old had disappeared at the end of November, after an evening at a friend’s house in Prahecq, in Deux-Sèvres. Since then, several people have been arrested, including Tom T., the friend who was to host them that night. And their bodies were found.
This Wednesday, October 2 in the evening, almost two years after their disappearance, justice will try to reconstruct the events that took place in Prahecq, in the company of the main accused. Four of them will be present, as well as 11 lawyers, theirs and those of the victims’ families. Around sixty gendarmes will secure the scene. But the matter does not stop at this quiet town. The next afternoon, the meeting is set at Magné, west of Niort. There gendarmerie closed a large area to traffic, from the towpath, to rue du Grand Port to Gué Ile de la Moucherie. The Deux-Sèvres prefecture also authorizes the use of drones to record images in these two areas, taking into account according to the authoritiess “risk of disturbances to public order” and for “ensure the safety of participants”.
These are the main places in which this affair took place.

Prahecq
This is where Leslie and Kevin spent their last evening. First with a friend, Nicolas, who had prepared veal blanquette for them. They then returned thirty meters away, on the same street, to their friend Tom T., who was staying with them. The latter, with several acquaintances, had ambushed them there. They were beaten very violently using various utensils.
Magné/Coulon
The bodies of Leslie and Kévin were first stored under a tent, set up in the countryside, near the Sèvre Niortaise, about twenty kilometers from Prahecq. Some time after the couple’s disappearance, Kevin’s converted truck was found in the same area, west of Niort. The young man used to go fishing with his father in Coulon. Leslie’s vehicle had been left in Prahecq.
