For the first time, he speaks openly about his conversations with Cédric Jubillar in prison. “Special Envoy” met the former cell neighbor of the main suspect in Delphine’s murder. The author of sensational revelations about explicit confidences is now free and lives in Porto, Portugal.
For almost two months, a wall separated them, while each lived in a cell of 9 square meters. Detained in solitary confinement, they did not see each other, but would have talked for long hours through the partitions. Cédric Jubillar would have ended up talking about the one who would have made him “the most cuckolded man in France” and whom he never called other than “the other”, according to Mark. Until one night, the main suspect in the investigation into the disappearance of Delphine Jubillar confides, according to his former fellow prisoner, on the exact facts that occurred on December 15, 2020.
According to the story he would have told Marco, Cédric Jubillar would have found his wife sending messages to her lover. “I freaked out, I got rid of it”, would he let go. Recognizing his involvement in the disappearance of his wife, he would have called on the experience of Marco, sentenced in the past to fifteen years of criminal imprisonment and then serving a short sentence (for death threats against prison guards).
Recognizing his involvement, Cédric Jubillar would have asked him for advice to deflect suspicion
“If I put a box in the ground, how soon can it be discovered, compared to the floods?” Cédric Jubillar would have worried. He would then have specified that it was a piece of land “sloping” and located near a “burnt place”. Following the revelations made by Marco to prison guards in September 2021, the premises, in Cagnac-les-Mines, close to a farm actually partly destroyed by fire, were searched. No body was found. Cédric Jubillar, for his part, denies having made such confidences to anyone.
Still according to his fellow prisoner, Cédric Jubillar would have asked him for advice to divert the attention of the investigators. Marco would then have suggested to him to direct the suspicions towards “the lover or the lover’s wife”, as well as macabre manipulation for that their DNA is discovered on the body. He would have made her believe that once free, he would help her in this project. With an idea in mind, according to him: to allow investigators to find the body. Without negotiating a remission, without paying anything… just “for the children of Delphine”, he assures.
