Since April 27, 2024, the death of Matisse, a 15-year-old teenager in Châteauroux, continues to generate a lot of ink. The boy was the victim of a score-settling. The main suspect is another boy of the same age who was placed in pre-trial detention. However, the suspect’s mother is also being prosecuted.
She is suspected of “intentional violence not resulting in total incapacity to work on a vulnerable person”, and has been placed under judicial supervision (she is not incarcerated, but she must respect a certain number of obligations) . The fact that she remained free annoys many people. His lawyer decided to break his silence to explain this decision.
The lawyer for the mother of the suspect in the death of Matisse has broken her silence
She made it clear that “it is not a right for someone indicted on a criminal investigation, but it is a legal obligation that they have a lawyer“, while she was officially appointed. As a reminder, the suspect’s mother admitted to having slapped Matisse, when he no longer seemed able to defend himself.
“We see it as a certain form of injustice that she is outsidebut I recalled the reasons why she was placed under judicial supervision: she was not known to the police (…) And above all, even if we are under investigation of a criminal nature, in what concerns her, she is indicted for violence, that is not a crimethis is not complicity in homicide“, added Nathalie Gomot-Pinard.
The lawyer calls for calm
She added: “popular vindictiveness cannot replace justice“. According to information from Figarothe main suspect would have filmed himself, a few hours before the tragedy, with a knife.
He “seems to be driven by a feeling of revenge“, write our colleagues from Le Figaro who were able to authenticate the video. “Wallah (I swear to God in Arabic, Editor’s note), now I’m going to go to this son of a bitch’s house. Wallah, I hate it too much (…) I’m going to ring this son of a bitch’s doorbell. If he doesn’t answer, on my mother’s face I’m going to n***** his mother“, he blurted out in front of a building.
