The disappearance of little Grégory was 37 years ago. Parents Villemin have new hopes thanks to new analysis.
In 1984, France discovered the Grégory affair and this news item became scrutinized throughout the country. 37 years later, despite many unraveled leads, the culprit (s) have never been officially identified. The parents of the little boy, to whom a series will be devoted on TF1, have never given up their quest for truth. Monday, September 13, 2021, Faustine Bollaert received in her program Marie-Christine Chastant-Morand, lawyer of the Villemin family for more than 30 years and Étienne Sesmat, head captain of the gendarmerie company at the time of the facts. The lawyer points out that “Jean-Marie Villemin wants to know. Compared to Grégory, he owes it for the memory of his son. Christine is in the same state of mind, they have confidence, especially with the new track explored. They hope that people will speak up. “. To help get people talking, new avenues can be explored.
DNA analysis to identify which branch of Grégory’s family is affected
Étienne Sesmat acknowledges that this three-decade-old dossier “does not contain everything. There are people, for procedural reasons, or other things, who are no longer in the file. Things have been canceled, things have appeared. For example, the last one Netflix documentary brings a lot of testimony which has a certain importance. It is not in the judicial file. This is why alongside, there is a global, historian approach, which will perhaps be necessary a day to do “. In this approach, additional measures were requested from the Dijon investigation. “We have DNA traces, nine profiles that had not matched. But we saw that (…) old businesses could have evolved thanks to the DNA of kinship. Instead of making it coincide with 100% ( …), we can match at 50%, that’s twice as likely to find “ reveals Villemin’s lawyer. It gives hope for an early outcome: “From these DNA profiles, we look for the profile of the physical characteristics (…). We had made a certain number of requests which were accepted, a very short time ago (…). These investigations are currently in progress. So let’s wait for the results of the investigations “.
