Jacques Moretti Arrest Follows Deleted Evidence Allegations

Authorities arrested Jacques Moretti amid allegations that videos and photos were deleted after the New Year’s Eve inferno at Le Constellation that killed 40 people and injured about 119, following a national day of mourning in Switzerland.Victims’ lawyers, including Sébastien Fanti and Romain Jordan, say club operators deactivated parts of the venue website and removed social media content that could show flammable acoustic foam, bottle pyrotechnics and overcrowding, and prosecutors say deleted material may lead to charges of destroying or hiding evidence.Valais prosecutors reversed an earlier decision by detaining Moretti pending court validation while investigators probe Jacques and Jessica Moretti for offenses ranging from negligent arson to murder with possible intent as dozens of injured, many critically burned, remain hospitalized across Europe including at Niguarda hospital in Italy.
