On December 1, 1907, 6-year-old Annette Bellot and her older brother were playing in the street on Place de Brouckere or Dam St. in Anderlecht, Belgium. A man would approach the children and ask Annette's older brother to buy him some cigarettes and would give him candy as a reward for doing so. The man told the boy "Leave your little sister with me; you will go faster". Trusting that the man and Annette would be there when he returned. He would go and buy the cigarettes and returned with neither of them there.
The next day Annette's body would be found behind the Veterinary School near the Gare du Midi. The unknown man had raped and strangled the girl to death. Her murder will never be solved.
