Overview

  • Prosecutors have asked for 30 years of réclusion criminelle, asserting they can prove Delphine Jubillar was killed through a converging set of clues.
  • The defense is delivering its final arguments, urging acquittal by stressing the absence of a body, weapon or identified crime scene and the reliance on circumstantial evidence.
  • Defense lawyers have challenged technical analyses of phones, GPS and pedometer readings, citing an acknowledged 'copy-paste' error in cell data as emblematic of investigative flaws.
  • Cédric Jubillar continues to deny any involvement and is expected to speak one last time before jurors retire to deliberate.
  • A verdict is expected Friday after nearly a month of hearings featuring emotional statements from the victim’s family and a strongly worded prosecution case.
