Cédric Jubillar sent to court for the murder of his wife Delphine
The family tragedy which took place a year ago now in Cagnac-les-Mines, in Tarn, is experiencing new legal developments. This Thursday, the investigating chamber decided to send back Cedric Jubillar before the Assize Court for the murder of his wife, Delphine Jubillar.
An alleged murder without a body
Mother of two children, nurse Delphine Jubillar disappeared on the night of December 15 to 16, 2020. Despite intense searches, her body was never found. However, her husband Cédric Jubillar was quickly suspected by investigators, in particular because of his contradictory statements and his behavior considered strange after the disappearance of his wife.
The accusation is also based on material elements: traces of Delphine's blood were found in their joint residence, and an in-depth examination of Cédric Jubillar's accounts and telephone communications reinforced the suspicions against him.
Cédric Jubillar maintains his innocence
Since his arrest in June 2021, Cédric Jubillar has maintained his innocence. According to him, his wife left the marital home in the night to find a lover, and he had no news from her afterwards. Despite several requests for release, he remains behind bars, the courts deeming the risk of flight too high.
A high-profile affair that captivates France
The Jubillar affair continues to captivate France. The successive twists and turns and the mystery which still surrounds Delphine's disappearance arouse keen interest. With each new legal advance, public opinion once again finds itself glued to this family drama.
The announcement that Cedric Jubillar will be tried by the Assize Court for the murder of Delphine Jubillar represents an important step in this matter. It remains to be seen whether the trial will shed light on the exact circumstances of this tragic disappearance.
