Murder of Joanna Parrish : ウィキペディア英語版 | Murder of Joanna Parrish
Joanna "Jo" Parrish (30 July 1969 – 17 May 1990) was a 20-year-old language student from Newnham on Severn, Gloucestershire, England, who was murdered in the Burgundy region of France while working at a local school as part of her degree course in 1990. Parrish, an undergraduate of Leeds University who was studying French, disappeared after placing an advertisement in a local Burgundy newspaper offering private English lessons, and arranging to meet a man who it is believed contacted her with details of a potential student. Her naked body was found in the Yonne River at Auxerre on 17 May 1990. She had been raped, beaten and strangled. The crime remains unsolved to the present day. A major suspect in the case was Michel Fourniret, a convicted serial killer known as "The Beast of Ardennes," who detectives suspected because the murder had similarities to crimes he was convicted of in 2008. Fourniret's wife, Monique Olivier, also gave police several statements linking him to Joanna Parrish's death, but she later withdrew the allegations, claiming they had been made under duress. The case was closed in 2011, but re-opened the following year after the emergence of fresh evidence. ==Background==
Joanna Parrish spent much of her formative years in the Gloucestershire village of Newnham on Severn, and was a student at Ribston Hall High School in nearby Gloucester. She attended the University of Leeds to study for a four-year degree in French, a sandwich course that required her to undertake a work placement during the third year. At the time of her death in May 1990, she was teaching English as an assistante at the Lycée Jacques Amyot in Auxerre, and was due to finish a week after her disappearance. Her parents had planned to visit her in France to take home her belongings, while Parrish herself would travel on to Czechoslovakia to join her boyfriend, a fellow Leeds student who had also been working overseas.〔 To supplement her income during her stay in Auxerre Parrish had advertised her services as a teacher in a local newspaper, offering private English lessons, and according to a flatmate she had been contacted by a man asking her to teach his son. She arranged to meet the caller outside the Banque Populaire in Auxerre at 7pm on 16 May 1990, but did not return home from the appointment.〔 Her naked body was found the following day in the River Yonne, three miles outside the town.〔 She had been raped, beaten and strangled.
