“They Call Them Monsters”: Son of Le Constellation Owners Breaks Silence After Crans-Montana Fire
As the investigation into the deadly Crans-Montana fire continues, the tragedy has expanded beyond courtrooms and forensic reports. It has entered the private lives of those connected to the disaster — including the family of the bar’s owners.
For the first time since the fire, the son of Jacques Moretti and Jessica Moretti, owners of Le Constellation, has spoken publicly.
His message is raw, emotional, and marked by anger and exhaustion.
“They call my parents monsters,” he says.

Breaking the Silence
Until now, the Moretti family had largely remained silent as investigations unfolded and public opinion intensified. While authorities examine responsibility and failures connected to the fire, the family has faced relentless scrutiny.
The son’s decision to speak comes amid growing online hostility, media pressure, and public outrage surrounding the tragedy.
According to him, the language used against his parents has gone far beyond criticism — becoming dehumanizing.
Living Under Accusation
Since the fire, Jacques and Jessica Moretti have been at the center of public attention. As owners of the venue where the tragedy occurred, they have been subjected to accusations, speculation, and judgment — even before legal conclusions are reached.
Their son describes a family living under constant attack, where grief, fear, and shame are compounded by hate messages and public condemnation.
“People talk as if they already know everything,” he suggests, pointing to what he sees as a rush to judgment.
The Human Cost of Public Blame
While investigations focus on facts, procedures, and accountability, the son highlights a different dimension: the emotional toll on families connected to those under scrutiny.
He emphasizes that his parents are human beings — not symbols or villains — and that the tragedy has devastated them as well.
“They lost people they cared about,” he implies, referring to employees and acquaintances who died in the fire.
Between Responsibility and Dehumanization
The son does not deny the seriousness of the tragedy. Nor does he dismiss the need for justice. Instead, his words draw a line between legitimate accountability and what he views as public cruelty.
Calling people “monsters,” he argues, erases complexity and strips individuals of humanity before the truth is fully established.
This distinction, he says, matters — not only legally, but morally.
A Family Under Pressure
According to the son, the family’s daily life has been shattered. Normal routines have disappeared, replaced by legal consultations, media coverage, and constant fear of public reaction.
He describes living with a sense of collective punishment, where relatives and children are drawn into a storm they did not create.
The Weight of Silence
For weeks, the family chose not to speak publicly, hoping that the investigation would unfold without further inflaming tensions. But silence, the son suggests, has not protected them.
Instead, it has allowed narratives to form without their voices.
Breaking that silence, he says, was not a strategy — but a necessity.
A Tragedy That Divides
The Crans-Montana fire has left a deep scar on the community. For victims’ families, pain and anger remain overwhelming. For those linked to the venue, the burden is one of suspicion and stigma.
The son’s statement underscores how the tragedy continues to divide — not only between victims and those seen as responsible, but between public outrage and the presumption of humanity.
Waiting for the Truth
As legal proceedings continue, the Moretti family remains under scrutiny. The son insists that only a full investigation can determine responsibility — not social media, not headlines, and not public insults.
Until then, he says, labeling his parents as “monsters” serves only to deepen wounds and obstruct understanding.
Beyond Headlines
The son’s words do not resolve the tragedy. They do not answer the many unresolved questions surrounding the fire. But they add a human voice to a story often reduced to blame and outrage.
In a disaster defined by loss, his message is a reminder that tragedy does not end at the fire’s edge — it spreads outward, affecting lives far beyond the flames.
As Crans-Montana continues to seek answers, one thing is clear: the consequences of this fire are not only legal and physical, but deeply personal.
