🔸 On July 24, 1985, (Q5)
a new letter was sent to Grégory's grandparents. Written in stick letters apparently similar to those of 1983, says the judgment of the Dijon Court in 1993, this letter shows the difficulty of the crow in leaving the Villemins in peace. “I will kill you again the Villemain family (…) Next victim, Monique”, threatens the author again.
At the end of a very in-depth and meticulous study, illustrated by numerous photographs, the experts Klein and Davidson estimated in their reports of December 10, 1991:
| This letter seemed to be an imitation of pre-existing models produced by means of a tracing paper (it being observed that the press had repeatedly published reproductions of the letters);
| The expert Klein claimed concordances of form between the writing of Bernard Laroche and the cursive writing ~ he was dead!
He noted similarities in typographic writing and the writing of Jacqueline Jacob.
Note: In the first letter, slipped under the shutters, the crow writes VILLEMAIN with an A. Investigators have speculated that the purpose was to deceive the family as to the identity of the crows. However, we can see a message there: "a vile hand"; Indeed "vil" in French means vile and "main", hand. I think of Marcel Jacob "I don't shake hands with a leader".
🔸 August 6, 1985, (Q6)
On August 6, 1985, Judge Lambert received a letter signed "Corinne" sent from 'Pont~Lévêque' (Lot) by a 16-yo girl on vacation with her godmother before returning to Lépanges. The letter began as follows: "Mr. the Judge, my name is Corinne, I'm 16 years old, I'm a friend of Murielle Bolle, Bernard Laroche's sister-in-law. I can no longer keep to myself what Murielle told me ..."
We have not found a copy of this letter but we can cite Christine's 'Non-lieu':
"Corinne presented herself as a friend of Murielle Bolle and claimed she confided under the seal of secrecy that she was indeed in her brother-in-law's car on October 16, 1984. She accused Bernard Laroche "of being the crow, to know how to imitate the writings well, and to have bought false witnesses like one of the post office girls, a friend of Marie-Ange".
"Corinne" even justifies Murielle Bolle's reversals which first overwhelmed Bernard Laroche, leading to the latter's imprisonment, before returning to her accusations. "If Murielle retracted, it's because her parents scared her," she says in a five-page text, full of spelling mistakes, before explaining that Bernard Laroche, "crazy in love" with Grégory's mother, Christine Villemin, would have committed this act for revenge.
According to her, Bernard Laroche, who had always been in love with Christine, would have been rejected again, shortly before the crime, by her who would have told him that she was happy not to have married him, because she would have had a crazy child (like Sébastien), while she had a beautiful boy. Bernard Laroche would have replied: "Don't worry, he won't be beautiful for long".
Traces of DNA had been discovered on the paper of the letter. Among them, the fingerprints of a magistrate and "two police experts". Despite the heavy accusations of this letter, the famous Corinne has never been found.
But another trace could lift the mystery. "We asked for samples that had never been taken before on girls named Corinne who frequented Murielle Bolle", specifies Me Chastant-Morand, who confirms "a principle acquired" by justice, without knowing for the moment when these samples will be taken. Another lead could tip the investigation. "We realized that on the paper support of the letters (of the crow), which is squared like a kind of notebook, there are printing defects, explains the lawyer. Investigations will be carried out and this paper will be compared with documents seized from people who had this type of notebook."
It remains to be seen whether these documents, thirty-seven years later, will finally reveal their secrets.
Christine Villemin firmly refuted these words. An expert report was conducted by Christine Navarro and published on April 18, 2018. She noted a similitude between Corinne's writing and Monique, who had always defended Bernard. Thus, Monique would have written a contradictory testimony to her opinions.
Note : Corinne's letter provides a vital element that no one seems to have picked up on. She informs the judge that Bernard Laroche "knows how to imitate handwriting".
Bernard was dead, he no longer risked anything. At that time, the experts overwhelm Christine who appears as the murderer in the eyes of society. This could explain why she tries to draw attention to Bernard's writing skills.
🔸 1989, (Q7)
On January 19, 1989, Marcel Jacob, Albert's sworn enemy, appears in the judge's notebooks.
On December 12, 1989, Judge Simon summons Marcel and Jacqueline Jacob.
On December 20, 1989, Judge Simon noted in his notebook: "New death threat against me." His grandchildren are threatened with death, Judge Simon has become the crow's pet peeve. Curiously, no one noted the correlation with the interrogation of Marcel Jacob which took place eight days before.
“Are you going to see 1990? It’s our business, in any case you will be killed”. According to Jean-Jacques Bosc: the analyzes on the mail point to Monique who wanted the judge to abandon the Laroche trail for Christine. Monique did not hide her sympathy for Bernard Laroche. Heard in 2017, Monique Villemin recognized her writing, but refuted having written this letter.
Did Monique wrote the anonymous letter to reduce the pressure against Marcel & Jacqueline ?
🔸 August 11, 2017 (Q8) and January 2018 (Q9)
The August letter was sent to prosecutor Jean-Jacques Bosc. It remains in the same vein as the two previous ones. The writing was traced with a normograph, which makes it almost impossible to identify its author:
The letter-trace or normograph is a tool based on the principle of the stencil which makes it possible to trace letters. It is still used at school but also in offices and graphic design workshops.
YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW TO SPEAK ASSHOLE. WE PAY PEOPLE LIKE YOU FOR NOTHING TO DO, YOU TAKE THE SAME DIRECTION AS LIL JUDGE LAMBERT, THERE IS A BAG WAITING FOR YOU, YOU WILL NEVER KNOW ABOUT THE LITTLE ONE [...].
A second letter from January 2018 was sent to Judge Barbier and then to the prosecutor Bosc:
[...] BASTARD, ASSHOLE. FOR THE CHILD, YOU WILL NEVER KNOW THE TRUTH. THERE IS A BAG WAITING FOR YOU.
Graphological analysis and expertise in writing are ineffective, because even the pressure is modified by the normograph. Only linguistic analysis can help assign these letters.
At the time it was sent, the spouses Jacob and Murielle Bolle were under house arrest. They were therefore unable to post the letters from the Vosges.
In October 2018, DNA analysis revealed the author of these letters also wrote other threatening letters to several magistrates in the region. If the DNA remains unknown to this day, the letters were not written by a member of the Villemin, Bolle and Jacob families.
