Husband Allegedly Kills Wife After Finding Her In Bed With Woman
The boss of a Formula 1 circuit who was shot dead was reportedly killed by her husband after he found her in bed with her mistress.
Nathalie Maillet, 51, the CEO of the Spa-Francorchamps F1 circuit, was found dead at her home in Gouvy, Belgium on Sunday.
Police say Maillet was at home with her alleged mistress Ann Lawrence Durviaux, 53, when her husband Franz Dubois confronted the pair, who were in bed.
Dubois then reportedly pulled out a gun and killed both the women before turning the gun on himself.
The public prosecutor in a statement quoted by Fox Sports said: “At 00:10, the bodies of two women and one man were discovered by the police in a house in Gouvy, all three presenting gunshot wounds.
“According to our information, the male individual voluntarily used his firearm to kill both women, including his wife, before killing himself.”
Maillet became the general manager of Spa-Francorchamps in 2016 and oversaw the modernisation of the circuit which hosted its first Grand Prix in 1925.
Dubois was also a well-known figure in the world of motorsport both as a team owner and as the co-founder of the VW Fun Cup series.
Veronique Leonard, the mayor of Gouvy, said in a statement: “I was warned, around 2.30am, by the police, that a double murder, followed by a suicide, had been committed in the house.”
