According to the lawyer, there was no preconceived murder plan, as the victim stated, but a conflict that got out of hand. “The first threat came from her and not from him,” said Van Wersch. His client would also not have had a gun with him when he visited his ex. After the incident, M. texted the victim: “I did it wrong, maybe I shouldn’t have come to you. If I want to crack you, what am I doing in your house for an hour? You pulled a niffie!”
