Fourniret. Portrait of a Serial Killer
Description
Accused of serial murder, rape, and perversion, Michel Fourniret was arrested in 2003. He was convicted of seven murders, and remains under investigation for many more. This disturbing documentary tells his terrifying story. What leads a man to spiral into manipulation, molestation, and a series of brutal murders? It is a story of obsession, of power, and of sex. This tragic, twisted case has seen families devastated by grief and anger and surviving victims scarred for life. Finally, Fourniret and his wife Monique Olivier have been convicted, and sentenced to life imprisonment. But in a terrible final twist, they still hold the cards. Only they know where the remaining victims are buried, and they refuse to tell.
