Accompanied by its usual columnists (Patrick CohenPierre Lescure, Mohamed Bouhafsi and Matthieu Belliard, ed.), Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine was at the head of a new unpublished number of C à vous on Friday March 3, 2023 on France 5. That day, the host once again welcomed several guests to her show. Among the latter, we can notably cite Michelle Fines and Christophe Astruc, who were invited to the program to present the documentary called Dans la tête de Monica Olivieravailable on Netflix.

During their time on the set of C à vous, Michelle Fines and Christophe Astruc engaged in some revelations about the daily life of Monique Olivier since her incarceration. As a reminder, the one who is suspected of having been the accomplice of the late serial killer Michel Fourniret, who was none other than her husband, was sentenced to life imprisonment, with a security period of 28 years. “Do you know how she currently behaves in prison Monique Olivier?“, Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine asked them. “She was sentenced in 2008. (…) She was in Rennes prison and she was surrounded by a kind of close guard with people who were her bodyguard, and girls who took care of her“, initially indicated Michelle Fines.

Michelle Fines on Monique Olivier: “The only people she talks to are the investigating judge and her lawyer”

“From the moment she spoke in the Estelle Mouzin case, and the spotlight focused on her, she asked to be in solitary confinement. Today, she is in Fleury-Mérogis. She’s in solitary confinement, so she doesn’t talk to anyone. The only people she talks to are the investigating judge and her clerk, who extract her regularly, and his lawyer, whose role should be underlined. Because his lawyer is a bit like the keeper of Monique Olivier’s secrets. He decided to make her speak for the family. Not all lawyers would have agreed to play this role. He’s the one who knows her best, and the one she trusts“, added Michelle Fines.
