Sitting in the front row, statuesque, the victim attends the trial of the one who shared his life for several months in 2021. The case should have been held at the Assises de la Moselle. Indeed, at the dawn of the procedure which implicated the ex-spouse, the latter was prosecuted for rape, “unconsented digital penetration”. But the orientation of the case took a correctional turn, the prosecution and the civil party agreeing on this option. What the defendant’s lawyer, known to the courts, did not fail to recall, and targeted by a complaint for violence, filed by the same girlfriend at the time, a month before the acts of rape reclassified as sexual assault .
On reading the report of the instruction, the Tervilloise and her ex-spouse, imprisoned for a year, rewind the film of their life as a couple. Freeze frame on June 13, 2021, the day during which the young woman confirms having lived “a hell”. It is about slaps, an attempt at forced fellatio, a disturbing sentence pronounced by the thirty-something to the address of his half, asking if she had already been raped.
Invited to speak, this Wednesday, July 20, the young woman will remain silent. Quite the opposite of the defendant, prolix before the judicial court of Thionville. Just as he had been in a 45-page letter sent to the examining magistrate, where he recognized the day of the facts “an overflow” on his part and a plot against him to push him down.
The daily life of the lovers was dissected during the hearing. His fondness for alcohol. Illegal substances. His sexual preferences, relating to sadomasochism according to the Clouangeois. The president of the court will evoke blows to the chest of the victim, pulled hair, a door of the apartment depressed. And especially the medical report which highlighted, five days after the evening of June 13, compatible sequelae according to the experts with the version put forward by the civil party.

“I got carried away in sexual violence”
“I did not brutalize him,” defended Jonathan Cacoilo. I just wanted to scare him. I didn’t think what I did to her was rape. I got carried away with sexual violence. “A criminal act,” noted the public prosecutor, who notably requested 7 years in prison. The northern Moselle court sentenced the Moselle to 5 years in prison, including 1 year suspended probation for 2 years. His name will appear in the Sexual or Violent Offenders File (Fijais). He will have to compensate the victim up to €10,000 for the damage suffered and not to contact her when she leaves prison. In addition, there is a work obligation and ineligibility for 5 years.
