The horrific murder of the Leeds woman raped, beaten and strangled to death by notorious Fred West-like killer
Yorkshire undergraduate Joanna Parrish was working as an English tutor in France when she disappeared in May 1990.
Jo, from the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, was described as a bright and hard-working young woman who was kind and gentle and had a bright future ahead of her. Fourniret later admitted to kidnapping, raping and murdering girls and women over a period of 14 years from 1987. It has been reported that he was behind another 21 killings, among them Joanna Parrish.
The murder of Joanna Parrish and subsequent bungling is the subject of a new Netflix documentary that focuses on the role played by Monique Olivier, wife of Fourniret. According to reports, Olivier is likely to stand trial at the end of this year for her role in the murder of Joanna. Joanna's parents took part in the Netflix documentary, providing details of what they saw as a 'dysfunctional' French judicial system.
Speaking to the BBC, Mr Parrish said: "We wanted to highlight what we see as a dysfunctional French judicial and investigative process. They've let us down, they've let Joanna down and they've let the other French families down. We thought that it might be an idea to highlight some of these deficiencies in the system."
