Our reporter saw in court how Omélie’s host mother and parents share their sadness: “I still don’t stand here with anger”

Inside they sat opposite each other. Outside they fell into each other’s arms. In the court of Bruges, the childminder and her partner had to answer for the death of baby Omélie (8 months), while his parents followed everything from the front row. The boy died of suffocation. What will become clear: in this case, the sadness outweighs guilt, and the loss outweighs any possible punishment.
