Cédric Jubillar was released from prison temporarily to be heard as part of yet another request for release, he who is in pre-trial detention for spousal homicide. Indeed, in June 2021, he was imprisoned, suspected of the death of his wife Delphine, missing since December 2020. During this session facing justice, with his master lawyers Alary, Franck and Martin , the painter-plasterer made a surprising appearance with a new beard look, and was surprised to see his friend Séverine supporting him. The man has been behind bars for over a year. Why does the court refuse him probation?
For the lawyers of Cédric Jubillar, no formal evidence justifies the detention of their client who has denied from the first day being involved in the disappearance of his wife. They have been asking for months that the painter-plasterer be free, at the disposal of justice, under an electronic bracelet. : “Today we plead before an independent magistrate, out of the battle, with a fresh and objective look. Pre-trial detention in France is the exception. The principle is freedom. What would require this man to be kept in detention?“, launched Me Martin at the microphones stretched before the hearing, reports Actu.fr.
For the magistrates and the parquet floor of Toulouse, it has however been clear for months that Cédric Jubillar should not be released. They fear “public disorder“What could lead to his release, he who is at the heart of a highly publicized case. But that’s not all, justice wants to prevent any subordination of witnesses, starting with the eldest son of the Jubillar couple, Louis, 7 years old He witnessed an argument the evening before his mother disappeared, having heard and seen his parents tear themselves apart. A delicate situation for the child hit by the absence of both parents – it is the sister of Delphine Jubillar who has custody with her little sister Elyah now.
Other witnesses like the neighbors who heard screams the last night Delphine was seen alive could potentially be taken to task if Cédric was ever released. Finally, without him, the excavations can continue more serenely, believe the judges.
Cédric Jubillar remains presumed innocent of the charges against him until the final judgment of this case.
