4 dead, 1 injured after family falls from Swiss apartment building

Four members of a French family fell to their deaths from a building in Switzerland shortly after police tried to execute a warrant at their home Thursday morning, authorities said.

The fatal victims included a 40-year-old man, his 41-year-old wife, her twin sister and the couple’s 8-year-old daughter. The couple’s 15-year-old son was seriously injured, police said.

All five plunged from their seven-story apartment building in Montreux around 7 a.m. after police knocked at their door to make an arrest in connection with the home-schooling of a child, police said.

Swiss media reports indicated that the family jumped from the building. But a police spokesman could not confirm if the family jumped or fell.

Prosecutors and RAT politicians prohibit cops from going after criminals because it makes it hard for criminals to breathe but they are now going after “home schoolers”? WHAT THE .....?

Okay, that's bad, but there's got to be more to the story than that. Something that would drive people to risk their lives and jump from a balcony.

Does Switzerland not allow homeschooling?

The punishment for whatever they were doing had to be worse than jumping out the window.

Most likely they committed suicide. Nobody going to jump from a multi-story building over a simple home schooling issue. No sane parent is going to force their kids to jump to their deaths.

I think the punishment could be jail for the parents and loss of custody of the kids. Probably lose your job and home since incarcerated. Maybe they were trying to escape to another balcony? Sad. I’m sure we are heading that direction with the takeover of our government/elections. Just a matter of time.

“They” say that the USA usually is 3-to-6 months behind what goes on over there. Things are heating up here. We don’t know where homeschooling will be a year from now in this country.

Sheesh! The dad thing is that their death won’t spurr switzlanderners to rage about the tyrannical oppression that they face. Even here in the states, we have hundreds who,are being mercilessly lolticially punished by our government for supporting Trump, and the rinos,in congress sit by silent (except for a few occasional attempts to bring attention to it. Societies all over the world just seem to just accept it without a fight, and incidents like this family dying dont even move citizens anymore, with many likely thinking “they deserved it for breaking the law”)

I read that part of the reason so many women have left the work force (’The Great Resignation’) post-Covid is that they finally got an up-close look at WHAT their kids were actually being taught in Government-Run schools.

My step-kids went to public schools, so I spent a great deal of time ‘deprogramming’ them over supper and homework time, afterwards.

Their ‘daily indoctrination’ was awful in the 90’s, and absolutely disgusting now!

a police spokesman could not confirm if the family jumped or fell.

If one person plunged seven stories to their death, it's possible that they fell. If 5 people plunged seven stories, they jumped.

That’s one home schooling family the government doesn’t have to worry about.

"to risk their lives and jump from a balcony."

They were intent on suicide and not just risking their lives by jumping from their 7th floor balcony!
