An investigation opened and entrusted to the Libourne gendarmes, confirms Loïs Raschel the public prosecutor of Libourne to France Bleu Gironde, after the discovery, on Tuesday November 12, of new death threats in the premises of the Jean Monnet high school in Libourne, as revealed by the Sud Ouest newspaper. The letter “targets the same teacher” already targeted in two more letters in September 2024 et in December 2023 specifies the Libourne prosecutor. A letter “racist” according to the mayor of Libourne Philippe Buisson, even if the remarks are “less characterized” than the previous times, nuance the public prosecutor of Libourne. The mail was found under the door of his classroomat lunch break.
Request for police protection
A complaint has been filed. The teacher’s colleagues say “overwhelmed, in shock” et “request that the professor benefit from police protection”. “There is a lot of worry and an effect of astonishment” adds the SNES-FSU union. “Can you imagine what state she might be in? It was in her class that the letter was found. Whoever put it there knew very well who it was addressed to. This has to stop. We’re angry. It’s disgusting.” testifies a representative of the CGT of the high school.
2 months ago, a few days after the start of school, a second anonymous handwritten letterhad been found in a classroom from the Jean Monnet high school after that of December 2023 discovery in front of an elevator of the establishment (“nauseating remarks”, according to the SNES union). The teachers then exercised their right of withdrawalcriticizing an insufficient response from National Education: checking students’ bags at the entrance and regular visits by the police in front of the establishment. No action is currently planned following this new incident. As of this Wednesday morning, a mobile security device was set up around the establishment by the Rectorate.
Impossible to say if the three missives are from the same author. The investigations are continuing, indicates, without further details, the public prosecutor of Libourne.
