Steve Stevaert left farewell letter: “He also wanted to save his family the reputation damage”

On April 2 it will be ten years since Steve Stevaert robbed himself of life. The former socialist top politician jumped in the Albert Canal on the day that it was known that a lawsuit for rape had been tightened against him. That he had also left a farewell letter was not known so far. “That letter shows that he also wanted to save his family the reputation damage,” says the current partner of Stevaert’s widow in the last episode of the Canvas-Docu ‘The shadow of power’.
