Overview

• The defense on Monday claimed the victim’s lover’s number appeared on a relay covering Cagnac‑les‑Mines the night Delphine vanished and accused investigators of removing a procès‑verbal.
• Called by the court on Tuesday, the telephony analyst testified the number was included by his copy‑paste error and said the phone records do not place the lover in Cagnac that night.
• Neighbors offered conflicting recollections about the evening, with some describing frightened female cries and others noting the victim’s car appeared parked in an unusual orientation by morning.
• The lover testified that Delphine feared her husband and said he holds a personal conviction the accused harmed her, while denying he ever went to Cagnac and rejecting any role in her disappearance.
• The trial is in its third week with final witnesses being heard before the accused’s interrogation, as Cédric Jubillar maintains his innocence and a verdict is scheduled for October 17.
