Neither the instruction, nor the testimonies, nor its contradictions serve its interests. Judged on appeal for 48 hours already in Metz for an assassination attempt on November 9, 2016 in Vandeuvre-lès-Nancy on a teenage girl, Samira Habri still clings to the same story.
She did not deny anyone from her apartment on the 4th floor of a building in the Place de Bretagne, because the victim jumped alone into the void to escape the police that the accused had just called. Why ? To challenge her because she came to rob her with two accomplices who had time to escape.
This version sticks so little to reality that Samira Habri took 15 years in prison in February before the Nancy jurors. And his lawyer, Me Mickaël Saunier, sitting on the same bench does not want to hear such a figure this morning in the requisitions of Advocate General Christelle Dumont.
Nor later in the mouth of President Faltot at the time of the verdict. The lawyer may have found a friend during the afternoon of June 24 through the testimony of the expert psychiatrist. Dr. Francis Boquel who, among other details of the psycho-neurotic profile of Samira Habri, sees an impairment of his discernment. The doctor, who recommended two compulsory hospitalizations of the fifty-something, qualifies her as partially dangerous if she does not take her treatment.

“No psychiatric danger”
All this could lead the prosecution to moderate its demands in the face of an accused liable to life imprisonment. Only at the third expert, the barometer of hope falls on the defense bench.
Commissioned directly by Nicolas Faltot, Dr Henry is much less alarming than his Nancy colleague and does not credit Samira with any “psychiatric danger”, draws her neurotic and anxious but does not grant her any modification of her discernment. On the other hand, he wonders about the pair she forms with her daughter, who got into a fight three days before the facts with the victim.
Questioned this Thursday by the court, the young woman of 20 today did not hide her desire for revenge and had even surprised at the time of the investigation and then the investigation, by her determination to go and finish the victim until on his hospital bed.
“Yes, well, they were above all words more than a real project,” said the witness. However, this may lead the court to believe that Samira started the job for her.
