On July 26, 2016, Father Jacques Hamel, an 85-year-old Catholic priest in Normandy, France, was brutally murdered while celebrating morning Mass. This episode of Unseen Witness tells the story of who Father Hamel was, what happened that morning, the foreshadowing signs before his death, and how both Christian and Muslim communities responded in the aftermath.
Through court records, eyewitness testimony, and Church reflections, we explore not just the crime, but the powerful legacy of unity and faith Father Hamel left behind.
