A few days earlier, explains the Laatste Nieuws, Xavier had proudly shown his mother, to whom he was very close, his future date: “Look, mom, it’s him I have an appointment with.” But this famous meeting turned into a tragedy. Selon les informations du Latest News, Xavier was drugged and tied to a bed. The suspect put a sock in his mouth and then raped him until he stopped moving. Kenny thought his victim was “sleeping” and therefore left him alone in the bedroom for an hour and a half. A fatal period during which Xavier lost his life.

The suspect recalls a “regrettable accident”: “While I was playing with Xavier, who I had attached to the bed, he suddenly became cold. I turned the heat on to him until he stopped moving. I thought he was sleeping,” he says.

Justice will have to determine what really happened that night. The trail of an argument that escalates is private.
