The case kept France in suspense for several months. As several suspects are prosecuted for the murders of Leslie Hoorelbeke and Kevin Trompat, an unexpected twist has occurred. A relative of the victim is suspected of having ordered a murder.
It is a scenario worthy of a detective series. The murder of Leslie Hoorelbeke and Kevin Trompat, a couple in their twenties who disappeared in November 2022 in Deux-Sèvres, was the subject of a twist, to say the least, unexpected by the investigators. Against all expectations, this file under investigation has enabled the authorities to shed light on a criminal case that has fallen into oblivion. This Thursday, May 25, 2023, Marie-Thérèse G., the great-aunt of Leslie Hoorelbeke was placed in examination.
The one who actively participated in the hunts to try to find the trace of her niece is suspected of having ordered a murder in the 1990s. Leslie’s great aunt was taken into police custody for the murder of Corinne Di Dio, a 37-year-old woman whose dismembered and decapitated body was found in 1995 in a trunk on the Seine. A cold case dating back 28 years that investigators are now pulling out of the drawer of cases closed without further action.

A sordid murder
Marie Thérèse G., the aunt of Leslie Hoorelbeke’s father is suspected of having ordered the murder of the young woman at the time. A premeditated murder case against a backdrop of jealousy. Known to the police for several crimes, the suspect could have wanted to make Corinne Di Dio disappear for a story of deception, as reported by our colleagues from the Parisian. At the time of the events, the victim had a romantic relationship with a brother of Marie-Thérèse G’s stepson. It turns out that the latter was also in a relationship with the suspect.
A coincidence likely, according to the investigators, to have nourished a desire for revenge in the spirit of Marie-Thérèse G., to the point that the latter came to commit the irreparable. The suspect denies any involvement in this sordid affair during which the victim was beheaded and dismembered. She was placed in examination in order to know the circumstances of this affair hitherto forgotten.
