For Nicole and Joan, the scam set up by Steve has to do with the work at Fleurus Cemetery. “I contacted the commune of Fleurus and hired a mason to repair a vault in the cemetery. So I contacted him on the phone, and he asked me to pay a deposit of 450 euros in September 2020 to purchase the equipment.“, Nicole began. Worried about not seeing anything start as a project, the old man then contacted Steve. The latter explained his absence by citing COVID-19 or a sick child.”In March 2021, he asked me to pay him back because he didn’t have enough money. I haven’t received any signs of life since. He also asked my granddaughter to pay back the money, but he never came.”.

The same was true for Gene, who came into contact through Steve’s father, who was responsible for maintaining local graves at the time. After three payments for materials, Steve heard nothing. “Then a man from the city government contacted him in front of me and asked me to reimburse him. He said he would, but in vain“Gene concluded. For Samuel, Steve did something innovative, pretending to be his own mother and borrowing money from him over the phone to cope with one heavy blow after another. 「I had known the family for a long time, so I lent them some money. I was threatened by the defendant’s friend when I asked for money”, Samuel asserted before Judge Daviau.

For the prosecution, the defendant’s absence from the trial itself confirmed his intentions and bad faith. Steve also did not deign to respond to prosecutors’ suggestions for criminal mediation. Will the latter respond to everyone’s calls after being sentenced by the Carroll judicial system on October 1?

A response will be made in the coming weeks.
