According to multiple sources, the alleged killer who killed four people when he was a teenager was stabbed multiple times last weekend. He was hospitalized on Saturday and his condition has stabilized in recent days.
The violent attack involving several inmates took place at Bordeaux prison.
The victim in this fight was armed with a sharp object, according to our information. He is believed to be the author of two double murders that occurred in the same year. Arrested last year, he is accused of the murder of a woman in her twenties and her grandmother, as well as another double homicide. He cannot be identified since he was a minor at the time of the events.
This is not the first time the young inmate has been targeted in prison. In a video obtained by The Press dating from a few weeks ago, we see the 19-year-old defendant being beaten up by several people while he is on the ground.
This young man is associated in the underworld with street gangs in the LaSalle sector of Montreal.
By the time he reaches adulthood, he may have four murders to his name, committed in the same year as a teenager.
He was initially incarcerated in connection with the murders of two young men aged 17 and 18, who were hit by projectiles while they were driving in July 2022 in Montreal West.
He was then arrested for the murders of Jade Racette Beaulieu, 22, and her grandmother Huguette Maranda Racette, 73, shot dead in December 2022. They were the 37e and 38e homicides of the year. The metropolis was facing a surge in gun violence. An adult, Mahad Farrah, had also been arrested. According to our sources, Jade Racette was involved in the sex industry. She had a conflict shortly before her death with Mahad Farrah, who was accused of pimping in Ontario.
