Overview

• Prosecutor Rachel Bray said a police custody is underway on a judicial commission and that further information will follow.
• Two other men are being questioned under audition libre as investigators conducted searches at residences in the Vienne, according to regional reports.
• Geolocation from Hilairet’s smartwatch suggested her body was relocated, which shifted the probe toward a potential homicide or criminal concealment.
• An autopsy performed in May did not determine the cause of death, and authorities did not indicate signs of violence at that stage.
• Le Parisien reports the man in custody is listed in the FIJAIS database of sexual or violent offenders, a detail not confirmed by the prosecutor.
