Paedophilia
[2009 May] Irish Daily Mail: Pedophilia
and the dark heart of the EU’s parliament Part of the great
mystery and scandal that accompanied the case was the relentless
incompetence of the authorities, at that time led by the Justice Minister,
Melchior Wathelet. For years, as victims were kidnapped and murdered, police
files were full of reports and tip-offs that Dutroux was selling young
girls. Yet Dutroux stayed free. In the end Mr Wathelet was forced to resign
in disgrace. And his reward for incompetence in the administration of
Justice was - to be appointed a judge at the European Court of Justice.
[2004] PEDOPHILE CASE JUDGE BREAKS DOWN IN COURT By
Ambrose Evans-Pritchard The Belgian judge who saved two young girls
from Marc Dutroux's pedophile dungeon has broken down in the witness box,
alleging high-level murder plots to stop his investigation into a child-sex
mafia.

'worked on orders of child-sex ring' Marc
Dutroux said yesterday he built and wired a secret cell in his cellar for the
victims on orders of a child-sex network operating in Belgium.
..."It was urgent to work quickly because we had to
get the girls,"..."A big crime ring," he called it.
[2002 Belgium] Regina
Louf's testimony She told investigators how, from her earliest childhood,
she'd been used in a paedophile ring. This had included her grandmother, her
parents and a pimp - Tony. ...She now says "It was big
business - blackmail - there was a lot of money involved." She knew, she said,
that sessions were secretly filmed without the clients' knowledge. Regina
recalled judges and politicians in this horrific house 'Influential people were
involved'
[2004 Belgium] Eight
years on, Dutroux appears in court - but will the truth be heard?
Suspicions of a wider network linger as date arrives for trial of Belgian
child killer....But there is another story: an
appalling catalogue of legal and procedural errors, turf wars and incompetence
by the police, politicians and judges - and, say some, irresponsible media. The
first investigating magistrate was dismissed after having supper with one of the
victim's families. Several prosecutors, police officers and witnesses have
committed suicide. Evidence has gone astray. ....The
Charleroi gendarmerie were told by an informer that he was deepening his cellars
to conceal children before selling them abroad. But no report was ever filed.
"Dutroux was allowed back into society like a grenade with the pin removed,
waiting to explode at any moment," wrote Marc Metdepenningen, a journalist who
has covered the case extensively.
