Welcome to our collection of popular quotes by

Peter De Vries

Peter R. de Vries was a Dutch journalist and television personality who specialized in crime reporting. He was born in Aalsmeer, Netherlands, on November 14, 1956, and died in Amsterdam on July 15, 2021, after being shot in the head.

De Vries began his career as a journalist in the early 1980s, and quickly became known for his hard-hitting investigations into crime and corruption. He hosted his own television show, Peter R. de Vries, misdaadverslaggever, from 1995 to 2012, and was a regular contributor to other Dutch news programs.

De Vries was a controversial figure, but he was also widely respected for his work. He helped to solve several high-profile cases, including the kidnapping of Freddy Heineken and the murder of Marianne Vaatstra. He was also a vocal advocate for victims of crime and their families.

De Vries's death was a shock to the Netherlands, and he was mourned by many. He was posthumously awarded the Order of Orange-Nassau, the highest civilian award in the Netherlands.
