According to the latest news, “all avenues are still being considered, none being excluded or favored”. The track of the accident obviously remains open, just like that of the kidnapping. And in the columns of the Dispatch, the French lawyer Maitre Georges Catala, who has accompanied the parents of little Marion, who disappeared in Agen, since 1996, sees similarities between the disappearance of the little girl on leaving school and little Emile.
And according to him, “we cannot neglect the possibility of a large predator”, that is a serial killer. “To remove without leaving the slightest trace, from what I read in the newspapers, a little 2-year-old boy in a tiny hamlet where everyone knows each other, unfortunately, you need a certain know-how. So we also have to look in this direction, ”he explains.
As a reminder, Emile was seen for the last time on Saturday July 8, at 5:15 p.m., alone, in a street of this tiny hamlet of 25 inhabitants. Since then, no trace of the child has been found.
Haut-Vernet is about two kilometers from Vernet, the village of 125 inhabitants to which it is administratively attached, some 30 kilometers north of Digne-les-Bains.
The 30 houses of Haut-Vernet have already been searched, all the inhabitants questioned and all the vehicles visited. Similarly, 97 hectares of fields, woods or steep terrain were “thoroughly” inspected, Mr. Avon said during the research, speaking of “one of the most important judicial search operations ever conducted”.

But all these operations, the first two days in the form of citizen beats with the help of hundreds of volunteers, sometimes from afar, then by gendarmes from the Marseille search section or the Digne search brigade, did not therefore make it possible to find the trace of the child. Neither are the specialized search dogs used by investigators.

Emile, from La Bouilladisse, in the Bouches-du-Rhône, had just started his summer vacation with his maternal grandparents when he disappeared. At that time, “several other family members were also present” in this house where Emile’s mother had been vacationing for twenty years. But neither of the two parents of the child, had specified the prosecutor.

Disappeared since July 8, Emile is described as a “resourceful” child. For the mayor of the commune of Vernet, François Balique, Émile is a “good walker”. According to the gendarmes, the boy with the dandelion behind his ear used to “follow the butterflies” and wander around the fifteen houses of the hamlet.

The morning of the child’s disappearance, Dédé, a resident of the small village of Haut-Vernet, said he saw him walking around. And nothing foreshadowed the drama that was to follow… “It was a few hours before he disappeared,” says Dédé. “He was a little child in diapers who was frolicking, as we have already seen many. Besides, he wasn’t alone that day, he was with his uncles and aunts. It’s a big family, and good people. They are very religious and practicing, with an exemplary education…”
A large family that lives almost self-sufficiently
Other inhabitants of the village confirm this description of Emile’s family. “They are very religious, very discreet. They lived a little in autarky, ”says a neighbor. “We don’t really have any exchanges with them,” continues another resident. “We only know them by sight, they are very discreet…”

If they do not live in Haut-Vernet, the members of this family are regulars in the area. Indeed, the small family had taken the habit of spending their holidays in this village, as another inhabitant of the hamlet tells it. “They have been coming here on vacation for more than twenty years and travel by minibus. They organize an annual concert of classical music of religious inspiration at the village church. But, in reality, we don’t know them well, the grandparents have eleven children and rather keep to themselves. »

A description of the toddler’s maternal family which contrasts however with the profile of Colomban, the child’s dad…
Who is Colomban S., the father of little Emile?
Originally from Yvelines, Colomban S. has a rather dark past. The 26-year-old father is a former member of Action Française. An engineer by training, he was also a very active activist within the small group Bastion social Marseille, a far-right association which received a letter of dissolution in 2019.
But, before the disappearance of the small group, Colomban had been called to appear before the criminal court of Aix-en-Provence, in 2018, for an alleged attack on people of foreign origin. However, he was acquitted in this case. He then entered politics, since he was, during the regional elections of 2021, on an electoral list in support of Eric Zemmour, called “Zou the list that gets rid of the system. »
