Jubillar case. Why the judge of freedoms still refuses to release Cédric Jubillar

It’s neat. The liberty and detention judge (JLD) refused the release of Cedric Jubillarthis Thursday, February 24, 2022. This was the fourth request of its kind filed by his lawyers since his indictment for the murder of his wife Delphine and his placement in solitary confinement Seysses remand center (Haute-Garonne).

“We are delirious”

During the recent hearing of their client, the lawyers of the 34-year-old plasterer, M^and Alexandre Martin, Emmanuelle Franck and Jean-Baptiste Alary, had harsh words for the current instruction. “The accusation is lost (…). It feels like [les gendarmes] play Cluedo (…). We’re in a frenzy…”

His lawyers reject the “confessions” that Cédric Jubillar would have delivered to a fellow prisoner on the murder of his wife and where the body would be buried. This episode led to the placement in police custody of his new companion, Séverineon December 15, 2021, for complicity in concealment of a corpse, and three weeks of intensive excavations in Cagnac. Without the body of the nurse missing for 15 months being found.

The testimony of their 8-year-old son weighs heavily

For its part, the prosecution is building its case according to the theory of “small pebbles”. the testimony of Louis Jubillar, 8 years old, weighs heavy. He would have seen his parents grapple near the Christmas tree, the famous evening of December 15, 2020. His mother wore a cat pajamas and his glasses on the nose. The pajamas were never found. The arm of the glasses, detached from the framelay under the sofa in which Delphine slept.

If this testimony is questioned by the defense because “not filmed”, no request would not have been formulated to date to have it removed from the file. For its part, the prosecution would consider it legally valid, because collected as a civil party. Stumble point.

Grab, screeching

On a more general level, the deceased wanted to leave her husband and rebuild her life with her lover. She sent him a photo of her in her undressthe fateful night of December 15 to 16, 2020, during which neighbors heard shrill woman screams. Here is why Cédric Jubillar remains the main suspect in this case. And why the judge of freedoms refused his release.

Next step, the investigation chamber of the Toulouse Court of Appealin front of which the defense goes appeal. For the fourth time since this fall. In this folder for now without corpse or crime scenebut with a “a bundle of serious and concordant clues”, the objective of the lawyers of Cédric Jubillar is clear: if the file were to be referred one day to the Assize Court, their client must absolutely present himself there as a free man. For the symbolism.
