Pierre Palmade worried about his safety in prison? An incident revealed…

Pierre Palmade has been incarcerated since December 9 at Bordeaux-Gradignan prison. But on January 13, an incident could have compromised his security, revealed RTL.

Since December 9, Pierre Palmade has been serving his two-year prison sentence in Bordeaux-Gradignan. Several media outlets denounce the conditions of detention of the comedian who reportedly lives in the most dilapidated building in the prison. Indeed, Muriel Robin’s former sidekick is serving his sentence in a six square meter cell with a rusty bed, opaque windows, water leaks, blocked toilets, and very little heating. But according to information from RTL, an incident that could compromise his security occurred Monday January 13 at the end of the afternoon. Pierre Palmade was surprised and even worried to see a guard he did not know open his cell, a prison source told RTL. He tells her that he is a staff representative. “ In fact, since he arrived, he has always been around the same agents », Specifies the media.

While this may come as a surprise, Pierre Palmade’s isolation is not unprecedented. As the prison director explained to France 5, it is a mandatory step for all new arrivals, for their protection but also that of the establishment. But the rules of isolation are very strict. “ On the video surveillance tapes, we can also see the gate which separates the solitary confinement area from the rest of the detention, remaining open, just like another cell in the same area, which is strictly prohibited. », explained RTL. Nothing happened before the doors were closed but they should never have been opened like this. Pierre Palmade was thus exposed to the risk of being attacked by another detainee.

Pierre Palmade on the path to repentance

On February 10, 2023, while driving his car and under the influence of drugs, Pierre Palmade collided with a vehicle coming in the opposite direction. A 38-year-old man, his six-year-old son and a pregnant 27-year-old woman were seriously injured. The young woman lost the child she was carrying. Pierre Palmade was sentenced on November 20 to five years’ imprisonment, including two years after being found guilty of involuntary injuries following a serious road accident while under the influence of drugs. According to a document consulted by RTL, the judges in fact considered that the comedian, who was a repeat offender, was “ the sole and entire responsible » of this accident. According to producer Jean-Claude Camus, who was a guest on the show At Jordan de Luxeon C8 on December 6, Pierre Palmade no longer touches any drugs and begins a path of repentance.
