Horror in France: Former teacher accused of raping minors. Confessed to 2 murders

A 79-year-old former teacher in France is accused of dozens of rapes of minors committed between 1967 and 2022 in various countries, including Germany, Switzerland, Morocco and the Philippines. The investigation began after the discovery of a USB drive with evidence of sexual relations with minors aged 13 to 17. The man also confessed to the murders of his mother and aunt, which were committed in the 1970s and 1990s respectively. According to his confession, he drowned his mother, who was terminally ill with cancer, and his aunt, because she begged him not to leave home. The French justice system is seeking witnesses to confirm the charges and fully investigate the case. The severity of the crimes has caused horror in France and other countries.
