Could the actor be remanded in custody?

Shortly before noon, Friday February 17, Pierre Palmade left the hospital in Melun (Seine-et-Marne) in a police van. He had been in custody for 46 hours. Arrived at the Melun court, he will be presented to an examining magistrate. An investigation is opened for involuntary injuries and manslaughter. The prosecution has indicated that it is asking for the placement in pre-trial detention of the actor.

The driver is still in a coma

The prosecutor is also asking for proceedings against the two passengers who were with Pierre Palmade during the accident. Witnesses say they were victims of the accident, but the prosecution considers that they fled before the arrival of help. For passengers, it requires indictments and placement under judicial supervision. The occupants of the car hit by Pierre Palmade are still hospitalized. The driver is in a coma, with a vital prognosis.
