Monday January 27, 2025 will open the first assize session of Lot-et-Garonne. Younès Moudni is accused of the murder of Laura de Pradena Caceres with whom he had a relationship.
For three days, the trial of Younès Moudni will take place at the Assize Court of Lot-et-Garonne, from January 27 to 30, 2025. The first session of the year. The facts date back to 2022. The suspect and the victim met on social networks before taking the plunge during a New Year's Eve party. They were from Marmande. A short-lived romance between the two lovebirds. They would have separated some time after meeting.
One evening in February, amid jealousy, the suspect allegedly stabbed him eight times. The victim was found in cardiorespiratory arrest, on a sidewalk on rue Gillet, in the city center of Marmande, in the middle of the night from Wednesday February 16 to Thursday February 17, around one o'clock. She was looking for help. He was arrested shortly after while he took refuge with a friend in the La Réole area (33). During his hearings, Younès Moudni spoke of “very serious misconduct”.
Four days of trial
The accused, now 44 years old, risks life imprisonment. He was indicted for homicide while intoxicated. The forty-year-old already had a mention in his criminal record for acts of violence. He was given a five-month suspended prison sentence. The victim was a mother of three children and worked in a pastry shop in Marmande. A trial awaited by the civil parties who wish to clarify the gray areas around this evening in February 2022. For four days, the debates will retrace the journey of the accused and will examine the details of the relationship which linked them. Younès Moudni will be defended by Me Céline Pascal, while the civil parties will be advised by Me Éléa Cerdan and Me Franck Dupouy.
