She had to be hospitalized after swallowing 80 sleeping pills.
But she did not die, as her 47-year-old companion seemed to want.
He would have insisted again and again that she join his two dead friends.
This would be a final proof of his love.
The woman ended up filing a complaint for incitement to suicide.
This is the edifying story, revealed on Wednesday by the Haute-Saône national police on social networks.
The man, who lives in Vesoul, was arrested on January 10 and taken into custody at the police station in this city.
He will have to explain himself at the bar of the Haute-Saône criminal court.
By searching the home of the Vésulien, the police discovered several weapons of categories B6, B7, C and D (swords, knives, pellet rifles etc.), according to the Republican East, as well as gross counterfeits of euro banknotes.
Seized weapons will be destroyed.
