Witnesses described Williams pacing through the carriage, playing spooky Halloween music on his phone, talking to himself, and repeatedly shouting, “I am the baddest, no-one is as bad as me.”

He was also heard shouting “boom” and “power” and mentioning the devil.

A taxi driver who subsequently picked him up described Williams behaving aggressively, talking to himself, and repeatedly declaring, “I'm coming London, I'm coming London, I'm coming home.”

Terrified passengers fled through the carriages while others attempted to confront the attacker, including a railway employee who fought him off with a frying pan.

On September 20, 2024, she left her university in Paris to visit her parents. She never made it home.

The following day, around 50 people joined the search for her. They discovered her lifeless body partially buried in the Bois de Boulogne park. An autopsy determined that she had died from asphyxiation.

The main suspect, Taha Oualidat, a 22-year-old Moroccan migrant, had previously been convicted of raping another young woman and sentenced to seven years in prison.

He had been released in June 2024 and ordered to leave France, but his deportation was never carried out. Just one day before Philippine's murder, authorities had placed him on a wanted-persons list after he failed to comply with reporting requirements.

He fled to Switzerland, where police arrested him four days after her death.

Around 2,800 people gathered at Versailles Cathedral to mourn Philippine, whose life was taken at just 19 years old.

She had traveled to the Aosta Valley in northwestern Italy, where she was with her former boyfriend, Sohaib Teima, then 21 years old.

During the night of March 26–27, Auriane was drugged with benzodiazepines and stabbed to death.

Her body was dumped among the ruins of an old church in the small hamlet of Equilivaz, near La Salle.

Investigators identified her former boyfriend, Sohaib Teima, as the suspect in her murder.

On April 8, 2026, an Italian court in Aosta found him guilty of murdering Auriane and sentenced him to 25 years in prison.

Auriane was only 22 years old. She had her whole life ahead of her.
