A hunting knife type knife, no less. The victim, a man born in 2005, is not at the hearing: he fled immediately after the treatment received at the hospital. “He is well known to the court services,” explains the prosecutor.
It was last November 7 in Chalon. The defendant and his partner were robbed. They are then hosted by friends but they think they know who stole them. “It was definitely him” asserts the defendant.
He knows the victim, she is the first person he met “upon arriving in Chalon, a month ago”. After the burglary, they communicate via Snapchat. An appointment is made on Saint-Laurent Island. The future defendant comes down, armed with the famous knife, “to fight it out” says the prosecutor, “not at all, he is going there to put an end to this story with a man who is not very clean, he says” says the lawyer.
The facts, two scenes
At first the two men continue to get confused – Y returns some things to and plays with it, hides it while keeping it in his hand but at a given moment, according to the accused, he will point it and it would have been at that moment that the other scarred the lower part of his face with the blade he wore.
The man, now injured in the face, runs away and the other runs after him. This is how the CCAS staff witness the second scene since it takes place in front of their premises. The injured man is sitting on a low wall, “in a defensive position” when the attacker joins him, “very angry”, and cuts him, this time in the arm.
Obviously the municipal police are responsible for the first acts (victim lying under a survival blanket, among others) then the national police take over.
So many questions and so few answers
So why this second shot? Why, seeing a handgun (it was a BB gun, but in fact it can be confused with a lethal weapon) did he not run away? Why this insistence on taking justice into your own hands when it is strictly forbidden?
On the second stabbing: “Because I asked him if he was going to come back into my life to make me sh…, and he said yes. » Staying despite the threat of a weapon: “I really wanted the police to catch him. » As for the last question, the mystery remains unsolved and we can only assume other disagreements between them, stories supposed to remain private.
The prosecutor requests 2 years in prison with continued detention
The defendant has a record of 3 convictions. One for theft, the other two for drug dealing. The facts and the record, the absence of a professional life, lead the prosecutor to request a sentence of 2 years in prison with continued detention.
Defense
“Very unpleasant case since the victim is also an aggressor. He should also have been at the bar,” pleads Maître Faure-Revillet. “It wasn't a simple burglary: Mr. However, the couple will flee the accommodation, only to learn that Mr. It's still quite surprising. »
The court sentences the defendant to 15 months in prison with continued detention.
The young man has a request for sentence modification in progress (for 3 months in prison, 2022 conviction for acts related to drugs): the court warns him that there is a good chance that these 3 months will be extended to the nut.
