Meaux-Chauconin: tried for new threats against the President of the Assembly, the detainee insults the magistrates

A detainee from Meaux-Chauconin prison, sentenced last October for threatening the President of the National Assembly, was to be


He was prohibited from contacting Yaël Braun-Pivet, the president of the National Assembly.

And did not respect this ban.

He was to be tried this Wednesday, in immediate appearance, by the criminal court of Meaux.

His trial lasted less than five minutes.

And for good reason: he was evacuated from the box by the escort – manu militari – while he was shouting at the judges: “Racists, racists.

I am France, big whore, whore”.

The hearing was adjourned to February 3.

It all started at the end of September 2022 when this 32-year-old detainee from Meaux-Chauconin prison demanded – by telephone – the opening of a parliamentary inquiry into his conditions of detention.

While threatening, if he does not obtain satisfaction, to take “hostages with weapons of war” or to commit “attacks worse than in 2005”.

Words for which he was returned on October 31 to the Meaux Criminal Court, for "threat of crime against people with an order to fulfill a condition".

Its victims: Yaël Braun-Pivet but also the secretariat of the Senate law commission and the office of the presidency of the National Assembly.

During the hearing, the question of his mental health arose: was the defendant in possession of all his mental faculties or was he simulating the disorders of a borderline person?

Or was he simply sincere in his approach?

Already convicted in the past 30 times (including once for apologizing for terrorism), the 30-year-old had indeed launched into a logorrhea on questions of law and had demanded the relinquishment of the Meldois judges.

He had been sentenced to ten months in prison, with a warrant, with a ban on contacting Yaël Braun-Pivet and a ban on appearing in the National Assembly and the Senate for three years.

A punch to a prison officer

This Wednesday, as during his previous trial, the 30-year-old refused to be assisted by a lawyer from the Meaux bar.

He was to be tried for "meeting a person despite a judicial ban imposed as a penalty", for having - on November 13 - sent a letter to the President of the National Assembly.

Not to mention that he was also to appear for violence committed against a prison administration officer.

It was also last November 13, at the Paris Court of Appeal's depot: he had punched in the face one of the officials of the Judicial Extraction Unit (Prej), a service responsible for transferring detained.

During the handful of minutes he remained in the box on Wednesday, the detainee was surrounded by seven police officers.

He refused to get up.

And this, despite repeated requests from the presiding judge: “I want to verify your identity, we don't have all afternoon”.

The magistrate had to raise her voice: “Speak correctly to the lawyer!

This was just before the defendant lost control of himself and was kicked out of the room.

During the deliberations, the defendant returned to the box but he was so bent over that no one could see him.
