The victims and their loved ones “are insensitive to the apologies presented” by the actor, their lawyer also underlined during a press conference in Paris.
A reaction to the apology and “shame” by Pierre Palmade after the tragedy. The family of the three people seriously injured in the accident caused by Pierre Palmade on February 10 hope that “Notoriety” of the comedian will not influence the investigation, said the lawyer for the victims, Mourad Battikh, Tuesday, February 14.
Victims and their relatives “are insensitive to the apologies offered” by the actor and expect justice that“no preferential treatment is granted to him”underlined Mourad Battikh during a press conference in Paris.
These three people were the passengers of a vehicle hit by the actor, while he was under the influence of cocaine. The lawyer said two of the victims, a 38-year-old man and his 6-year-old son, were still in intensive care on Tuesday. The boy has the “fractured jaw” and the father underwent several operations, added Mourad Battikh. The third seriously injured person, a 27-year-old pregnant woman who lost her unborn child, is “collapsed”continued the lawyer. “An emergency caesarean section” was realized, “the child would have been born alive, but this remains to be confirmed by the expertise”he added.
“He realizes the horror of what happened”
Shortly before, Pierre Palmade’s sister, Hélène Palmade, had declared that the comedian “wakes up little by little and realizes the horror of what happened, of what it caused”. “He will assume all the consequences of his actions with the terrible awareness that he will never be able to repair the harm he has done”she said in a statement, after being able to visit him in the hospital.
“The idea of having destroyed the life of this family devastates him. He prays, and we with him, that they come out of this with the least possible consequences. He prays. He really prays”added the sister of the comedian. “As vain as it may seem, Peter asks their forgiveness from the depths of his soul”she concluded.
