The tears come quickly. This is fifteen or sixteen they were acquitted in the Outreau case, unprecedented judicial fiasco. But they still have trouble “remove this story” . Five of the ten acquitted called to testify at the trial of Daniel Legrand, which is entering its third week, were heard Monday 1 June They all recalled that they did not know the accused before the case and spoke, once again, their broken family life.
David Brunet, hearing by videoconference, has the voice chokes when he mentions the accusations of David Delplanque, “his school friend” , brought against him in the wake of those made by his former neighbor, Miriam Badawi. The former companion of Karine Duchochois Outreau still lives and practices the profession of “landscape interim” . Their son was placed and David Brunet has recovered his guard that bine later. “I have never understood, I would like someone to tell me why” , takes David Brunet, whose last memory is of going for coffee and playing in yellow dwarf Delay .
At the time, Jonathan Delay recognizes it as part of her attackers. “Did you remember, Mr. Brunet sexually assaulted you?” , asked President Philippe Dary, even if the witness was acquitted in 2004. “I do not want answer “, Jonathan breath.
When he was indicted in May 2002, David Brunet says investigators: “Poor thing, he had to be wrong, so he had to see.” The acquitted today has another message for the civil party, now a young man of 21: “Life has been hard for you but for me as well (…) The four convicts (Badawi. , Delay, Delplanque Grenon) they you have said that there were only four Forget, matured, grown up “ Jonathan listening: “.. Screw Screw brothel was a life! Live your life, it so short, it is so hard. “
The firm voice of his ex-girlfriend, Karine Duchochois, another acquitted, which was choniqueuse to France Info after the case, shall produce an inventory of both sides: “There are the Delay children were victims, but it also has all our children who have suffered and were destroyed in this case. ” His voice breaks when she talks about the son she had with David Brunet. “It took 19 years and it is destroyed. At 11, he testified before the Assize Court of Saint-Omer, on his birthday” , sobbed the woman. “Me, I do not care, I’m great, I came out of me, but not my son” , she adds, referring to its chaotic school career.
Sandrine Lavier, also heard by videoconference, is also soon overtaken by emotion. After stating tersely that she did “not much to say” , the wife of Franck Lavier, paid like him on appeal in 2005, agrees to talk a little about the post -Outreau. A period “pretty harsh” she saw “very badly” . “I fell into depression” , she confesses. On her four children in care, she has found that three. In the evocation of one of his older daughters, who still refuses to join the parental home, Sandrine Lavier bursts into tears.
– Sandrine Lavier: “My daughter is now a major and she still has not made me
– Mr Franck Berton (defense counsel): How you live it
This girl is one of twelve children of Thierry Delay victims recognized by justice in this case. According to his mother, yet it is not. “It was taken in a trap,” she regrets. A view shared by her husband heard a little later in the day. At the helm, Franck Lavier explained how he had admitted having witnessed some facts at the time “to save his wife and kids” . He confirmed the accusations of children on their parents Delay particular, hoping to get his wife in prison and review its foster children. Difficult to understand for the court strategy. “A survival instinct” , summarizes the control.
“How is your life today?” , asked him President. “Every day when I go to bed, I think of the case” , he replies. Franck Berton, who represented him in the first two trials, ask him more or less the same question. The answer speaks volumes
– Mr Franck Berton. “How it is life
– Franck Lavier: Waiting
– What are you waiting
.? – Nothing “
Five other acquitted must be heard Tuesday
