ASSISEN. Serial killer Stephaan Du Lion on the first day of the trial: “When a woman deserves to be beaten? If she wants to go out on her own, for example” | Interior

What drove four-time murderer Stephaan Du Lion? Confident, with one thumb hooked behind his pocket, he was allowed to answer. The window cleaner turned out to be an Antwerp folk figure who acted ‘den onnozeleir’ at school and did not want women to ‘go their own way’. On the facts, it sounded like this: “I became sexually aroused and could not control it.” According to his absurd logic, the victims wanted it too.
