balen, belgium - Nick Geys admits to killing Heidi De Schepper and hiding her body, shedding light on a 15-year-old mystery.
Suspect's Confession
During a police interrogation, Nick Geys confesses to the murder of Heidi De Schepper, whom he claims was ordered by her boyfriend to kill. Geys admits to hiding her body, marking a quick turn of events as he was initially called in as a witness for questioning.
Geys, previously convicted for another murder, revealed details of the disappearance of the young mother of three from Balen, Belgium, who was known to be involved in drug-related activities. The sudden disappearance of De Schepper led to a lengthy investigation, culminating in Geys coming under scrutiny. His past criminal record added suspicion, eventually leading to his confession.
Authorities were informed of Geys' acquaintance with De Schepper and the circumstances surrounding her disappearance. Following a conversation with his mother, Geys disclosed the location where he buried De Schepper fifteen years ago. Despite an extensive search by the Civil Protection, her body remains undiscovered.
The recent revelations not only shed light on De Schepper's case but also link Geys to a second murder of Glenn Van De Weyer within a short timeframe. The Antwerp Public Prosecutor's Office refrained from commenting on the confessions but acknowledged a breakthrough in the investigation that had remained unresolved for over a decade.
Geys implicated De Schepper's boyfriend, Nick M., as the mastermind behind the murder plot, leading to the arrest of both individuals along with a third accomplice. Motives behind the crimes remain speculative as investigations continue, with families of those involved expressing shock and disbelief.
The families of the suspects and victims are reeling from the unexpected turn of events, seeking solace through victim support services. As the search for De Schepper's remains continues, the community awaits closure in the tragic case that has resurfaced after years of uncertainty.
