The hellish day of grandpa Stefaan Brems (58): from the funeral of his grandchildren to the confession of the man who caused their deaths

“It is very intense,” says Stefaan Brems (59), audibly tired when we speak to him. The man experienced a roller coaster of emotions today: sadness, anger and then that questionable relief. It started with saying goodbye to his two grandchildren. A few hours later his phone vibrated, it was the police to report that the children’s dad had confessed to the arson. This is the story of the emotional day that has meanwhile been saved on a USB stick. “In case their mother – my daughter – ever wakes up from that coma,” says Stefaan with a trembling voice.
