PARIS - The former wife of a convicted French serial killer has said he kidnapped, raped and killed a schoolgirl who disappeared 17 years ago, her lawyer said on Friday , renewing hopes of finding a body in one of France's most notorious unsolved cases.
But Olivier's fresh disclosure - which has resulted in her being charged with complicity - have renewed hopes of finding the schoolgirl's body that investigators failed to locate in June, despite a four-day-long thorough search of the serial killer's properties in the Ardennes. "Investigations are still needed to discover where Estelle Mouzin's body is ... but has not been able to give information in that regard," Delgenes said.
Michel Fourniret was jailed for life in May 2008 for the murder of seven girls and young women, but until March always maintained he had nothing to do with the disappearance of Estelle Mouzin.
