About a month. This is the lapse of time that the Thionville judicial court gives itself to give its criminal response in this alleged incest case involving a fifty-something Thionville, in fact the uncle of the complainant, aged 8 at the time and today major.
The latter’s words were officially collected years later by the police officers who, in their hearing report, detail the young girl’s testimony: while she was sleeping with her cousin at her uncle’s house, the latter would have come to bedroom. While she slept, he reportedly urinated in her hand, then wiped off the liquid with a tissue.
During the hearing, quickly, the family context is evoked. It is a question of a general tense atmosphere, of sums of money loaned by the defendant to the parents of the young girl and never returned. We learn that the respondent has since divorced, and that his ex-wife would have revealed one of his fetishistic inclinations. Sexual practice that the niece will also denounce thereafter.

A murky affair, agrees Me Felici, counsel for the defense, who maintains that it is first and foremost a family settling of accounts, between adults, with a minor in the center, whose experts will attest that she does not present a mythomaniac tendency , nor propensity to evoke false memories.
Twenty-four months in prison, including twelve months with a simple suspension, were required by the public prosecutor, as well as a ban on contacting the young woman and registration in the Register of perpetrators of sexual or violent offenses (Fijais ). The civil party’s lawyer is claiming € 15,000 in compensation for non-pecuniary damage.
