They want to “appeasement”. The parents of Krisztina Rady, the wife of Bertrand Cantat found hanging at home, said that they opposed the investigation into “possible acts of voluntary violence” committed by their ex-tond reopened at the end of July by the Bordeaux prosecutor’s office. “Today, parents wish to appease and do not understand the relentlessness concerning this file, in particular by claiming that their son-in-law has committed forced suicide,” said their lawyer Me Tibor-Louis Leh in a statement released on Friday.
Four procedures have already been opened and classified without follow -up around the circumstances of the death of Bertrand Cantat’s woman: the first after her death at the marital home in Bordeaux in early 2010, then in 2013, 2014 and 2018.
« Causes multiples »
If after the death of Krisztina Rady, his parents had repeatedly mentioned the “violence” of the singer who “in a certain way terrorized” their daughter, they had nuanced their words in 2013.
Through their lawyer, they said they were convinced that the latter “is probably not the only involved person” and “that there are many other complex reasons for which she committed suicide”. A repeated version on Friday. “The causes of suicide are multiple,” hammered their advice.
Another farewell letter
The Bordeaux prosecutor motivated his decision to reopen the file by the elements that appeared in a recent documentary on Netflix “from Rock Star to killer: the Cantat case”, devoted to the singer of Noir Désir, Sentenced in 2003 for the murder of Marie Trintignant. The film evokes a farewell letter from Krisztina Rady, unveiled this week by Paris Matchwhere she writes: “Thank you to the incessant cries and the accusations of Bertrand, exclusive depositary of suffering. But she also quotes two other men, “lamentable little corporals”, and two women who made her “suffer”.

Krisztina Rady and the singer met in 1993 during a festival in Budapest. Married in 1997, the couple had two children.
