will her husband stay behind bars?

Almost a year after the placement of Cédric Jubillar in prison, his lawyer pleads Thursday, June 9 for a release under judicial supervision. A hearing is held in Toulouse, where the judge examines the question of the extension to rule on his pre-trial detention. Cédric Jubillar is indicted for the murder of his wife Delphine who disappeared in December 2020. “Pre-trial detention is the exception. The principle is freedom. Today, the debate is: what would require that this man be kept in detention?”questioned Maître Alexandre Martin.

Cédric Jubillar is coming to the end of his twelve-month legal criminal deposit mandate. The man has always maintained his innocence. For its part, justice has been struggling for a year and a half to gather irrefutable evidence on this murder, without a body, without a confession and without a proven crime scene. The magistrate has the possibility of extending the period of detention of Cédric Jubillar by six months or of releasing him until his judgment.
