Defense Grills Ex-Prosecutor as Phone Data Narrows Night of Delphine Jubillar’s Disappearance

The rare testimony targets a 2021 press briefing the defense says misrepresented key elements of the case.

Overview

  • Former Toulouse prosecutor Dominique Alzéari testified after the court was petitioned by the defense, which accused him of spreading inaccurate details in a June 18, 2021 news conference.
  • Alzéari acknowledged possible approximations but said he relayed only verifiable indices at the time and insisted he never presented proof or formal charges as settled facts.
  • An avocat général called the hearing a waste of time and a parties-civiles lawyer labeled it a showy maneuver, while the defense maintained the briefing became the case’s “original sin.”
  • Technical experts said antenna records indicate Delphine Jubillar’s phone stayed within a small triangular area around the home that night, and another expert noted Google archives can miss certain actions, which the defense pressed as leaving room for uncertainty.
  • The court resumes Tuesday with a DNA specialist and Delphine’s relatives scheduled to testify, as Cédric Jubillar continues to deny killing his wife and a verdict is slated for October 17.
