It's like a picture in my memory. We were sitting on the floor, and she's telling me that my father is dead. And...
Suddenly there are police everywhere. Danielle sees a long convoy of cars and the police ask her to move aside. I realize it's Colonel Kadhafi in the streets of Paris, my city, and I'm being stopped by the police to let pass this dictator who killed my brother.
Back in Paris, Melanie's aunt Danielle has an idea. You were running around Paris following Gaddafi?
The first thing he said to us, I remember it very well, was, you're amazing people, that he understood us and that it must have been hard for us to see Gaddafi. Then he said, you are the Elysee, make the most of it. What can I do for you?
When Danielle finished talking, she says Sarkozy tried to respond. And the judge immediately put him in his place and said, Mr. Sarkozy, sit down. It's not your turn to speak now. It's the victims of the DC-10. It's this woman's turn to speak. Danielle and Melanie wait for the verdict for the four charges against Sarkozy.
We were facing a monster of a political scandal. So many well-known and high-ranking French people were involved. A little like the Epstein affair today. So many people implicated in the story that it's hard to believe.
