Four people in police custody in connection with death of Emile - Four people, including the grandparents, are in police custody in connection with the death of 2-and-a-half-year-old Emile Soleil, whose remains were found near a river in Le Vernet, in the Alpes de Haut Provence. The individuals are being questioned for "intentional homicide" and "concealing a corpse." The grandparents, Philippe Vedovini and his wife, along with two adult children, were taken into custody on March 25th, 2025, following an investigation by Marseille's gendarmerie. The police are currently verifying evidence collected over the past months. Forensic operations are ongoing across multiple locations. The bones of little Emile were discovered by a hiker in March 2024, eight months after he went missing. Investigators also seized a planter with blood traces on March 23rd, 2025, near the church in Haut-Vernet. Further updates will be provided as the investigation progresses.
