She had filed a civil action, as a great-aunt, and mourned her niece, Leslie Hoorelbeke, killed with Kevin Trompat in Deux-Sèvres in November 2022, and for which five people are indicted. But Marie-Thérèse Garcia also had a huge crime to blame herself for, since she is now suspected of the murder of Corinne Di Dio, whose body was found beheaded and dismembered in 1995 in the Yvelines, according to the Versailles prosecutor’s office, confirming information from Parisian.
The news sometimes knows strange pile-ups, or unsuspected links. Because the two cases are not only linked by a family tie, but also by disturbing correspondences, such as the fact that both cases involve murders against the backdrop of a romantic rivalry.
“Love” Rivalry
On the one hand, Corinne Di Dio, 37, at the time commercial at Bouygues, had maintained an affair with Antonio M., a Spanish robber, from whom she had had a son, whom she had recovered in sole custody after their separation and incarceration of the robber in 1994. Marie-Thérèse Garcia, mother-in-law of the condemned, resented Corinne Di Dio who no longer wanted the father of the child to approach her son, whom she was afraid of losing, but also suspected her of having an intimate affair with a brother of Antonio, who was none other than Marie-Thérèse’s concubine, according The Parisian.
On the other hand, the Leslie and Kevin case is also a murder set in romantic disappointment, as investigators suspect (although the word love is usurped). The prime suspect had a past intimate relationship with Leslie and harbored a deep hatred for his new boyfriend, as also revealed The Parisian end of April.
Marie-Thérèse Garcia was indicted Thursday, May 25 on counts of kidnapping and forcible confinement in an organized gang, murder and possession of category B and C weapons, and placed in pre-trial detention, according to the Versailles prosecutor’s office.
