What happened to Emile Soleil? For nine months, investigators from the Marseille research section tried to answer this question, in vain. And since some of the little boy’s bones were found, things are becoming clearer… a little. As a reminder, it was a hiker who discovered the child’s skull on Saturday March 30, 2024, during a walk near Haut-Vernet, the small village in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence where he had disappeared at the beginning July 2023. Since then, investigators have been able to get their hands on another bone fragment, as well as Emile’s clothes, on this same mountain trail. And while the research is now complete, all they have to do is discover the cause of the boy’s death two and a half years. If the public prosecutor of Aix-en-Provence, Jean-Luc Blachon, declared during a press conference that “all the hypotheses” still remained under study, it would seem that some could already have been ruled out.
In Emile’s disappearance, the accident trail seems the most plausible
In any case, that’s what the magazine explains. Mariannein its edition of Thursday April 11, 2024. According to “several sources” close to the file, it is the trail of the accident that takes precedence, “at 90%”. It must be said that“no ante-mortem trauma was observed” on Emile’s skull, according to the prosecutor. However, we will have to wait for the complete analyzes to confirm this. But for François Balique, the mayor of Vernet, one thing is certain: this is not a crime committed by the little boy’s relatives. “In any case, the family track is completely excluded”he assured Marianne, without giving more details. This will undoubtedly put an end to the rumors surrounding the family, whose customs have been questioning since the beginning of the affair.
As a reminder, Philippe and Anne Vedovini are the parents of ten children, the eldest of whom, Marie, is Emile’s mother. These large siblings are home-schooled, and live to the rhythm of the couple’s religious practices. Furthermore, the profile of the patriarch raised many questions in this affair. In addition to his reputation as a man “character” And “strict”Philippe Vedovini is involved in an old case of violence against minorswhich he allegedly committed within a religious community in the 90s. In any case, no link has been established between this affair and the disappearance of little Emile, which still remains to be elucidated.
