VICTORINE, 18 : DEATH AT THE END OF THE ROAD | Enquêtes criminelles | W9

Her murder shocked the whole of France… It happened 4 years ago in the small town of Villefontaine, in Isère. After missing her bus, Victorine Dartois, a young woman aged just 18, decided to walk home through the woods. Two days later, her body was found submerged in a stream.

15 days later, a 25-year-old father was arrested. His name was Ludovic Bertin, and he lived just 800 meters from his victim. Confronted by investigators, Ludovic Bertin confessed to the crime but denied any sexual motive. He claims to have strangled the young woman following a simple jostle! These explanations leave the investigators baffled, especially as one detail in the suspect’s version is not quite right. Ludovic Bertin claims to have bumped into Victorine while jogging. However, he had suffered a serious leg injury a few weeks earlier…

And an unexpected eyewitness account will further cast doubt on the young man’s personality.

So who really is Ludovic Bertin? And what is his real motive? As the man prepares to stand trial, we set out to unravel the mystery.
