Alison Erb, a 49-year-old nursery manager originally from Norfolk, was found dead on 25 May 2023 alongside her 51-year-old partner Loreto Di Salvatore at their apartment in Roppentzwiller, a village near the border with Switzerland and Germany.
Alison Erb and her new partner Loreto Di Salvatore found dead with gunshot wounds in the village of Roppentzwiller.
French lawyers, acting on behalf of Alison’s family, said in a statement: “We want to highlight the exceptional work carried out by the investigating magistrate in Mulhouse and the Gendarmes in Strasbourg, both past and ongoing, in determining the circumstances that led to the horrendous death of Alison Knott and her partner”.
Police began an investigation and found Alison – whose maiden name is Knott – and Mr Di Salvatore had been shot three times each.
Alison’s sister, who still lives in Norfolk but wanted to remain anonymous, described her sister as having “a huge heart” and said her death had “left a gaping hole in so many people’s lives”.
