"

I gave him a flash

", and one of the injuries observed by the forensic experts "

corresponded

".

But I haven't seen any blood!

“, Launched the accused Thursday, November 19, the throat tied, during an interrogation of nearly three hours before the Court of Assizes of Pas-de-Calais.

"

The lamp broke,

" "

but apparently it was already cracked,

" he added, his throat tied.

The death of the child, found with around thirty bruises and hypothermia, is due according to forensics to a head trauma caused by "

a violent impact

".

In education, I have always been told + the lamp, the lamp.

I always believed that it was not possible, now if the experts say so (...) maybe it's the lamp!

He choked.

The 34-year-old man is appearing for “

intentional homicide

” on his partner's son, on the night of February 5 to 6, 2017 in Aire-sur-la-Lys, and for regular violence since August 2015. The mother, Emilie Inglard, is accused of failing to prevent the crime.

According to the investigation, the accused left the shed where the couple spent the weekend around 12:30 am, taking the child to run along a nearby canal, in the freezing night, to punish him for having done “

bed wetting

”.

In front of the Court Thursday evening, Julien Masson remade all the film of the day of the drama, ensuring to be only gone out to seek tobacco, accompanied by the child.

According to him, during a "

return trip

" to Emilie's apartment, Yanis would have had "

several falls, including a significant one

" in an embankment on the way back, would have fallen asleep, then would have fallen again from the bike on which the stepfather had installed it.

Before Thursday, he had always attributed the death to those falls.

A few hours before the tragedy, an argument had broken out over the child.

"

Yanis told me that he wanted to go live with (his real father) (...) It's not for me that I got upset, I found it annoying for Emilie

", explained Julien Masson.

But "

from the moment we left the shed (...) we didn't talk about that anymore

".
