Jacques Moretti

Jacques Moretti, along with his wife Jessica, co-owns the bar 'Le Constellation' in Crans-Montana, Switzerland. He is currently the primary focus of investigations into the New Year's Eve fire at the bar that resulted in 41 deaths and 115 injuries. Both Jacques and Jessica Moretti are under investigation in Switzerland and have been formally placed under investigation in Italy. Recent developments include Moretti being excused from a third scheduled hearing due to a reported state of depression. Despite this, he was reportedly seen undertaking renovation work at one of his restaurants. The French justice system has refused to seize the couple's assets. The investigation continues, with other figures, including the mayor of Crans-Montana, also being questioned. The incident has prompted a solidarity payout from the Swiss government to the victims and their families.
