Overview
- Appearing on LCI, lawyer Isabelle Colombani called for new searches, perquisitions and confrontations to relaunch the stalled investigation.
- She requested DNA collection from everyone who approached the child on the day he vanished, noting two non-family DNA profiles were found on his T-shirt.
- Citing soil, flora, insect and broader biotope reports, she pressed for targeted sweeps of barns, hangars and agricultural sites near Haut-Vernet.
- Colombani said early efforts focused heavily on the family and that some witness interviews were not sufficiently in-depth or cross-checked.
- The case remains open with no charges, as prior custody of the grandparents and two adult children ended after 48 hours and experts reported violent facial trauma suggesting likely third-party involvement.
