Overview

• Testifying by video, Jennifer C. said Cédric Jubillar told her, “Yes, I strangled her,” mimed the act, and warned she would “end up like Delphine” if she cheated.
• Jubillar denied any confession, called the account a vengeful invention over his demands for cannabis, and repeated, “I am innocent,” describing himself as a media-made “coupable idéal.”
• Earlier, Séverine L. said she leans toward his innocence yet recounted he joked that Delphine was buried near a burned farm and discussed ways to make a body disappear.
• Former cellmates offered conflicting testimony this week, with some reporting alleged confidences and others insisting they heard no admission, deepening credibility disputes.
• The court will conduct a lengthy interrogation of the accused on Friday, and a verdict is expected on October 17 in a case without a recovered body or direct forensic proof.
