'She was the random victim': Son speaks out after mom's fatal stabbing in Laval
CTV
A man has come forward to talk about his mother who was killed in what appears to be a random attack in Laval.
Nearly two weeks after 46-year-old Irina Draghicescu was killed, flowers are placed at the scene where she died in Laval last month.
Police say the woman was stabbed repeatedly while going for a walk in a park on May 29.
"There's not a single minute that passes that I don't think about her," said her son, Robert Draghicescu.
He has decided to speak about what happened. He lived with his mother in their Laval apartment for 22 years.
"I've been living with a sense of emptiness in my body. There's something missing, and there's also something missing where I live because there used to be somebody always with me and now this, this person is gone," he said.
He says police told him it was a random attack.
"It was shocking to know that it was just a random attack. As simple as that. It could have been anybody. And my mother didn't have enemies, so she was the random victim," he said.
