Little
Émile , the two-year-old boy who
disappeared on July 8 , a month and a half ago, in the town of
Le Haut Vernet , in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence department, keeps all of France in suspense. The authorities had carried out investigations to clarify how his trail could have been lost, but the prosecutor attached to the case, Emmanuel Merlin, has raised the level of the investigations with a complementary accusation and the process is already being treated as a criminal investigation for "arrest
and kidnapping arbitrary action of a minor". This decision has not been produced by the contribution of new evidence, but by the advance of time. Decisions may be made that the initial framework did not allow, such as provisional arrests.
Earlier this month, a
Facebook support group , called 'Where are you, sweetheart Émile?', which numbered more than 1,500 and served as a
space for 'venting' , has been removed by its creator -neighbor of Le Haut Vernet, Dauphiné Libéré- after the publication of
hate messages .
But an
expert wanted to talk about this matter and assures that "the fewer details" they reveal, "the more difficult it will be for the alleged kidnapper to adapt his behavior." This strategy chosen by the parents is not "illogical", since it can even "
advance the investigation ".
