Overview
- The court opened day ten by summoning the gendarme at 3:30 p.m. to address the contested list and by rejecting a defense request to formally record its new conclusions.
- The defense argues the lover’s phone was detected by a relay covering the Jubillar home the night Delphine vanished and alleges a related procès-verbal was removed; the lover denies being in Cagnac and says Delphine had received threats.
- Prosecutors and prior analyses maintain the phones of Delphine and her lover only connected to relays near their respective homes that night, making the defense’s telephony claim disputed.
- A neighbor testified he is 100% certain Delphine’s Peugeot 207 had changed orientation by the following morning, and an expert said interior window condensation could be compatible with a human presence during the night.
- Further witnesses, including the medical examiner and a foster family, are scheduled before the defendant’s interrogation later this week and an expected October 17 verdict, as Cédric Jubillar continues to deny killing his wife.
