the husband “must confess”, according to the lawyer of a cousin of Delphine Jubillar
The request is explicit. “Cédric Jubillar must confess to the murder of his wife”: for Philippe Pressecq, lawyer for the cousin of Delphine Jubillar who has disappeared since December 2020, the vice is becoming clearer when his client was heard by the judges on Monday.
When on a file which is starting to be relatively thick and which accumulates considerable material and psychological elements, it is the only thing that Cédric Jubillar should do if he was able to assume what he has done”, asserted the lawyer with Agence France Presse.
