Everyone agrees: Jacques Rançon is a "poor guy".Even his lawyer tends to designate him thus, "with all the respect that [he] owes him".A way of saying, in short, that "Jacques Rançon is not a genius of evil"."If we put aside the acts he has committed, it is a normal, cordial, almost endearing personality.Nothing appears from his person who would suggest that he could have committed such serious facts, underlines Gérald Brivet-Galaup.He had a disgusting life, a disgusting childhood, but it is not the prince of darkness.Behind multiple sexual assaults, rapes and homicides would therefore hide childhood trauma.The argument seems a little agreed, almost exhausted in the defense of criminals awaiting a trial.But, a week before the audience for the murder of Isabelle Mesnage (read episode 1, "Jacques Rançon, a serial killer in short?"), Perhaps this argument is worth watchingcloser.

Jacques Rançon's life is forged in the brick.A red brick as burned by the veiled sun of Picardy.In the Somme, where he was born in March 1960, the building was thus made.The brick crushes any other attempt at urban planning, the ocher takes precedence over the gray of the roads and detonates with the straw color of the fields which extend as far as the eye can see until Amiens, about ten kilometers at thewest.He pushed his first cry at Hailles.
