Tragedy by a Swiss couple in the French community of Lescheroux. A 69-year-old man and his 62-year-old wife were found in their home about 100 kilometers across the border from Switzerland; they had been dead for a long time, he was severely mistreated mentally and physically.
The couple was discovered by an attentive post-woman in town. He had noticed unusual scenes on the Swiss estate.
Fly out the window, lights always on
As always at this time of year, the Lescheroux postman had offered the neighbors his new Christmas calendars. But, for once, she received no comment from the Swiss couple, who had lived in the village since their husband’s retirement.
At both houses the postman made several suspicions. The exterior lights stayed on day and night. The couple’s car has not moved for nearly three weeks and an odd number of flies was gathering on one of the house’s windows.
“Thanks to her a second victim was avoided”
On December 7, Lescheroux firefighters finally accessed the home. What the emergency team found there is hard to beat in terms of sadness.
Firefighters found the woman’s body on the floor of an adjoining room. According to French media, she had been dead for several weeks.
The man is still alive, but was in very poor condition when he was found. Neglected and seriously damaged in health. The man was very weak. I thank the postman for looking after the couple, ”Lescheroux mayor Aimé Nicolier told the local newspaper“ La Voix de l’Ain ”. “Thanks to his care, a second victim was probably avoided.”
Now what led to the sad fate of the Swiss couple is becoming clear. An autopsy of the woman’s body should provide more information. The 69-year-old man was taken to a hospital and must receive psychological care. (cat)
