THE French serial killer who slaughtered dozens of women including Brit student Joanna Parrish has died after falling into a coma.
Last year, analysts found forensic traces of two other Fourniret victims - nine-year-old Estelle Mouzin and 18-year-old Céline Saison - on a mattress belonging to the murderer’s sister.Corinne Herrmann, a barrister representing presumed victims, said at the time: "We want the DNA of all victims and disappeared girls that we represent to be compared with those found on the mattress, and with all evidence under seal seized at Michel Fourniret's home.
Genetic traces have linked him with at least 21 unsolved cases of murders or disappearances across France.
