Nearly 100,000 Euros Raised for Belgian Who Severely Assaulted Neighbor After Alleged Abuse
A crowdfunding campaign for the family of 49-year-old Grégory Lenoci, convicted in August 2026 of attempted murder and sentenced to 17 years in prison for severely assaulting his neighbor after alleged abuse of his 6-year-old stepson, has raised nearly 100,000 euros. The case sparked debate in Belgium, with some, including Vlaams Belang leader Tom van Grieken, calling the sentence excessive. Lenoci, with prior convictions, attacked his neighbor, who remains in a semi-vegetative state. The alleged abuse was not proven; Lenoci is appealing the verdict.
