Zoë Snoeks fell off a cliff while posing for a photo two years ago.

Her husband, a photographer and the only eyewitness, said she slipped while he was checking on the dogs.

Now he is suspected of having killed his then wife.

Two years ago, 33-year-old Zoë Snoeks fell from the cliff of Le Hérou while she was there posed for a photo. Originally it was said that she slipped and fell into the Ourthe River below. The photographer and husband of the Belgian woman who died in the accident was just checking on the dogs when the accident happened. The case seemed closed with the single witness statement. But on Tuesday, two years following her tragic death, her then husband Joeri Janssen (36) clicked the handcuffs. He is suspected of killing Zoë. The Dutch newspaper “Nieuwsblad” reports on this.

Already two years ago, Snoek’s family doubted the story, which her husband told. According to the parents, the couple had argued repeatedly in the weeks before the accident. In addition, just a few weeks later, Janssen had a new girlfriend, whom he married less than a year following Snoek’s death. This was reason enough for the parents of the Belgian woman who died in the accident to file a civil lawsuit.

Investigations revealed new elements

The public prosecutor’s office in Antwerp took on the case. She examined the file, questioned the husband and visited the crime scene, says media spokesman Kristof Aerts. The effort bore fruit: “Following further investigations, additional elements recently came to light,” explains Aerts. The investigating judge then ordered Janssen’s arrest on Tuesday morning. The arrest followed the indictment on Wednesday. Janssen is suspected of murder. He denies having anything to do with her death.

Even though the Snoeks family had long ago targeted their daughter’s former husband, the arrest hit them hard. “We knew that the public prosecutor was investigating Zoë’s ex-husband, but it’s still a blow to hear that he was actually arrested for murder,” says the father.
