“It is the sky fell on my head,” recalled Daniel Legrand, one of the 13 acquitted Outreau (Pas-de-Calais), about his first detention in this case, 14 November 2001. Illustration. (LP / ARNAUD DUMONTIER)
recognized Victim of Outreau child abuse case, Dimitri, 23 , is the third son of the couple Badawi / Delay to speak at the trial of Daniel Legrand. And after his elder Sherif, 25, and his younger brother Jonathan, 21, who have designated it as their attacker from the first week of debates, lively phrasing boy accused in turn. “This man in the box he has committed sexual assaults on you?” Asks the president Dary. “Yes. He abused as a kid, I remember his face. I see, “replies Dimitri.
” I know what I experienced “
His brothers spoke of “flashes” or “images”. Dimitri can hardly giving any details either. Otherwise it is Daniel Legrand in his memories at least twice, one “in his parents’ Badoui Myriam and Thierry Delay, the other in” a frame (a farm) in Belgium “,” not far from . an amusement park “
He joins other faces:” Some of what I paid not mention, “he loose. He has seen him be himself be abused, as had advanced Cherif? “Not in my memories.” He claims to be sure of seeing him go after Jonathan, he does not know for others of his brothers. Sometimes at the bar, arms folded tight across the chest, he wins, “I am not in a game course here, if I not remember his head, I amuse myself not to accuse him! I know what I experienced! I have my truth “
nightmares scenes
For Dimitri, Daniel Legrand and this” Dany Legrand who lives in Belgium “are one. The mention of this “Dany”, which had led investigators to find two Daniel Legrand – father and son-, was found at the time on one of the lists drawn up by Dimitri and copied by his childminder.
“If I write these names on a list, we have not blown them to me what!”. Yes yes, this name does not come out of nowhere, notes the President Dary, who regrets that no (it) has ever asked then that could be what Dany there – “It’s a shame, more than pity …” he sighs. On another list, Dimitri cited a “David Legrand”, which told him nothing today. He did not remember a fact prior to the case in 1999 when his mother prompted him to denounce another man to protect his father.
In his memory skinned drag however nightmarish scenes. Scenes that arouse the specter of a real network and murder of children. Dimitri sees a room full of kids and adults – “twenty aggressors.” He slips: “It is not a case that region. The network, he was not only Outreau “.
Dimitri also sees “a baby in a closet, is taking shots” and then we have “put in a hole dug by away from the kindergarten.” He claims to have crossed “the little girl”, that of the sordid story delivered to Burgaud judge Daniel Legrand. He also is “of course” says Dimitri, others paid too. “If I face is not inventive faces! I have not been to another planet to recognize, “he defends.
” You had denounced 50 people … “
The president, who asks him what he thinks of innocence, Daniel Legrand: “It is time to question yourself,” insists Dimitri. And the fact that the four convicted, including his parents, have it cleared? “It is their vision, their feelings,” he said.
Me Hubert Delarue, Legrand lawyer and formerly one of the thirteen acquitted of the folder comes up: “You had denounced 40 people, 50 in total. Are they still guilty as you had denounced “Dimitri:” When I was little, I gave a list. Maybe hear a child’s mouth, it may seem imaginative, but that’s not to say that it not happen. “
In the morning before his testimony, a Couple arrested during the investigation and ultimately not indicted – those that the defense had called “the lucky innocent” – testified. The President asked Chérif what it was for the lady: “It is false, said the elder Delay. I’m sorry, I apologize. Now I grew up and I know good and evil. I do not know this lady “President Dimitri asked if he knew if she had abused him.” Yes, he has said. She was coming home. “Faced with her ex-husband, the brothers were the same way contradicted. Dimitri A man has addressed these words: “I’m sorry the horrors you have suffered, but neither I nor my wife, there have participated. You will not repair this drama with accusations such as these “
