On the night of September 23 to 24, 2024, emergency services were called for a cardio-respiratory arrest in Conches-en-Ouche, in Eure (Normandy). They discover Lisa, 3 and a half years old, covered in bruises. She died from her injuries.
This infanticide had moved people in Normandy and beyond. Lisa’s mother and her stepfather were quickly indicted for “murder of a minor under 15, violence against a minor under 15, deprivation of care and failure to report treatment of a minor”. The couple admitted to having engaged in repeated acts of violence against the little girl on the evening of her death. Their pre-trial detention was recently extended. They risk life imprisonment.

Three new indictments

This is information revealed by Paris Normandy which West France was able to be confirmed with the public prosecutor of Rouen, Rémi Coutin, this Friday, October 11, 2024.
