This is another case that appears in connection with that of the disappearance of little Émile. Indeed, as reported BFMTV DICI on Friday July 14, 2023, the public prosecutor of Digne-les-Bains, Rémy Avon, discovered the existence of fake kitties online, supposedly created to help the family of the missing child. Faced with the scale of the phenomenon, the prosecutor is considering opening an investigation for fraud. Rémy Avon went to Haut-Vernet on Friday to make sure that it was not the family who was behind the Leetchi kitty. A kitty which would therefore have no real link with the disappearance of the child and would therefore be a false outpouring of solidarity. If these various pots were put online with the aim of helping Emile’s family, it would in fact be a scam.
Still no trace of the little boy
Two and a half years old, Émile disappeared on Saturday July 8, 2023 after having escaped the supervision of his grandparents. Fromit remains untraceable and no lead is ruled out. The mayor of Vernet, the village where the little boy disappeared, issued an order to restrict access to the area where Émile disappeared and thus avoid malicious tourism. “This decree was taken until Monday evening so that we let the inhabitants of Haut Vernet and the family live quietly” he explained. “I call on the population not to come to Vernet, it is useless.” At this stage of the investigation, investigators face a heavy data verification work. They indeed received more than 1500 calls following the broadcast of the call for witnesses. Among the theories mentioned: the accidental track, the criminal track with the intervention of a third party as well as the animal track (kidnapping by a bird). understand what could have happened to Emile, and above all find the little boy.
