Verdict expected on husband and wife 'serial killers'

A court is expected to reach a verdict today on a couple accused of the kidnapping, rape and murder of seven girls, in one of France’s biggest serial killing cases.

Prosecutors want maximum life sentences for husband and wife Michel Fourniret and Monique Olivier, who are said to have hunted for young virgins to rape and kill in crimes allegedly committed in France and Belgium from 1987 to 2003.
