"Dubbed the 'Criminal Backpacker' by the media, Heaulme's victims included lone women, pensioners and children."
Prosecutors in France have requested a new murder trial for Francis Heaulme, a serial killer convicted of 11 homicides. The case involves the 1989 murder of farmer Jean-Joseph Clement, previously dismissed by a court. The cold-case unit has reopened the investigation, aiming to bring Heaulme to trial. Heaulme, known as the 'Criminal Backpacker,' has been in prison since 1992 and is infamous for the murders of two children in 1986. His life sentence was confirmed in 2020 after an appeal was rejected.
