Emile, two years old, has still not been found since July 8, 2023. If all avenues are considered in order to find the trace of the boy from Haut-Vernet, a new story has just been considered by the investigators.
There is still incomprehension in the hamlet of Haut-Vernet. It is in this small village located in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence thatÉmile, two years old, has been missing since July 8, 2023 after escaping the surveillance of his grandparents. Since that date, his parents, Colomban and Marie, have been immersed in the collection and are now hoping for a miracle to find their little boy.
The investigation carried out by law enforcement led to different leads and theories. If the little boy’s grandfather was initially surprised by his attitude, it was then a young teenager from the village who pointed the finger in particular because he was known for operating his agricultural machinery quickly and abruptly. The thesis of a possible accident was then raised but the searches carried out at his home obviously yielded nothing.

Disappearance of Emile: why the cousin of a suspect intrigues investigators
However, this 17-year-old young man is not excluded from the list of suspects. In the columns of New Detective, we learn new elements. “On the day of the tragedy, Leo (first name of the farmer) crossed the hamlet in a tractor while going to make hay on his land. He was driving too fast, as usual, and would have knocked down little Émile who had gone out into the street. He would have taken the body to get rid of it and telephoned his cousin, to agree their versions“.
And all eyes today are on this cousin, whose statements are intriguing. Everything suggests that he would have lied about the course of his day in order to protect the suspect.. Questioned at length, he would have in his first testimony, assured to have seen Émile in the process of “climb through the grass towards the mountain“while another witness is categorical and explained that he was walking on the other side. We note that the sniffer dogs agree with the second witness.”Through his story, Marc ‘keeps’ the child away from the road. Would he lie to cover for his cousin Léo?“. His story would have pushed investigators to continue their research in order to find a new flaw.
