We found no poison.
We found no poison.
Yet my client finally got a few answers. A number of years ago, I was approached by Helen. Her mother had suddenly passed away. On paper, it was a natural death. But her daughter felt that something was not right, and she can usually trust her intuition blindly. The police could not definitively determine whether poisoning had occurred, as she had since been cremated without family and the investigation was halted. For the family, it felt as if all traces were being erased. We decided to search anyway. We spoke to people who had been in contact with the mother in the last years.
Through a contact in America, we had the ashes examined for poison by a professor in France. Whether traces are found depends on the type of poison. Nothing was found. That is also part of my profession: not every case ends as you hope. However, a few questions received answers. And what I keep seeing: uncertainty weighs heavier than any answer. You never handle such a case alone. A strong network is at least as important as a good instinct. That’s why I invited Yvonne van Westenbrugge from ToConfide, one of the specialists in our network, for our free webinar on Thursday, October 8 at 8:00 PM. She is a former investigator and helps bereaved families uncover what happened before and around a death.
