Véronique Sanson Breaks Silence on Pierre Palmade Crash, Says He Could Have Faced a Harsher Sentence

Palmade now serves his term at home under electronic monitoring.

Overview

  • Speaking on TF1’s Sept à Huit, the singer called her ex-husband’s actions “épouvantable” and recalled thinking “c’était bien fait pour lui” when he was sent to prison.
  • She expressed sympathy for the victims and their relatives, highlighting the loss of the unborn baby and lasting injuries in the family.
  • On February 10, 2023, Palmade caused a head-on collision in Seine-et-Marne while under the influence of cocaine and synthetic drugs.
  • He was convicted in November 2024 in Melun of aggravated involuntary injuries and received a five-year sentence, including two years in prison, and he was not tried for involuntary homicide because the fetus showed no extra-uterine signs of life.
  • In April 2025, the Bordeaux appeals court approved a sentence adjustment that put him under electronic monitoring and house detention for the remainder of his term.
